That and I wanted to be sure I came to leadership on my own, without any help from my mother or my abilities.
I used it here though.. during the werewolf battle, just to help our odds, and well, there were a few reprecussions because of other people's abilities.
It's different with friends who understand it - it can boost Nico's abilities so it's great for teamwork. Or when he gives me a legion of dead legionaires.
