Bear in mind that if the character has used the feat already to enhance an existing blade, then they have already established what their version of the feat is. IMO.

Because "avoid lightning" can be used at full chance to dodge lightning, but "aerial maneuvering" would take an improv penalty, IMO. "Avoid" could even be interpreted as a simple ability test.

Lifting ain't flying. Also, the referee should apply the rules as strictly as she can in these circumstances.

No, that's right, devotees can't make up new feats. However, a player can, with the narrator's agreement, make up feats that his devotee and others in his clan have available to them.

PS. Can we keep the subjects clear, please? It's difficult to follow "random musing" and "random question" threads
