Never walk into a fair fight when walking into an unfair fight is an option.

Imprison
6 FP; Traits: Divine (Law), Attack, Ranged, Condition (Immobilized)
This prayer confines an opponent within a divine barrier Imprisoning her for a duration of fifteen (15) minutes. The opponent cannot be moved or carried by any means.

Does this supersede the +6 strength stipulation in the new immobilized trait, or is it merely an oversight?

As written, this would trump the +6 Strength to move an immobilized person. However, I am not sure if it was or wasn't an oversight. If another RM remembers our intention with that skill when the traits went in, please chime in.

A specific rule always overrides a general one - in this case, it's intentionally specific, so Mike is correct. (If it was not intended, the text would have been dropped when the trait was added. There's a difference between picking up a statue or a block of ice, and someone imprisoned by mystical forces.)
