I think the game should explain how the Leadership aura works:
It will not effect the character who provides it.
Remember? In the DnD games, a paladin also provides an aura, but it never effects himself/herself.
Right now the Leadership buff doesn't apply to the character who has points in the Leadership ability score.
So, you can have this scenario:
- Jill has a Leadership ability of +1 and an Obedience trait of 0.
- Jack has a Leadership ability of 0, and an Obedience trait of 1.
In this scenario, Jack would have the Leadership buff and (because of the Obedience trait) the Leadership buff would buffing his Willpower Ability score by +1 (as well as Initiative +5 and Damage +10%).
However, Jill (who actually has the Leadership ability) would get no Leadership buff.
If Jack also gained a point in the Leadership ability, Jill would then get the Leadership buff as well. But the buff applied to her doesn't apply a bonus to her Willpower ability score unless she is considered "Obedient" through her traits.
I think the concept of an obedient character receiving a bonus from the Leadership buff makes sense. An obedient character would benefit from Leadership more than one who isn't obedient. I just think the idea of receiving a willpower bonus because you have an obedient personality is a little strange/confusing, to the point where it's going to throw some people and make them wonder if they've stumbled onto a bug.
