True, I was thinking of my own character (who did just this on Saturday).

Quite a big one, I'd say, unless they had some specific other noise-making ability. A trumpet might do, definitely a fiddle...
>Bevarans could use their 'Earsplitting Scream' in similar ways.
They didn't though, neither of them...
>What I wouldn't allow is a claim to have a general 'jamming' effect on

Multiple Opponent penalties, certainly. Being sound, also penalties for the surrounding acoustics. Is there an 'Area Effect' penalty?
>Can Vingans who aren't devotees take an ability with an equivalent effect?
I'd say yes, it's certainly less unusual than 'Fly' - we even know where this ability comes from, within the character's normal life.
