** I think it’s possible. But, as stated on the main page, ‘possible’ and ‘easy’ are two different things. I mean, the various Nightmares managed to last THIS long, so they’d naturally need to be tough. -TerrorCooper

** Since most sample powers are semantic and broad, you could invent a justification to rid of your madness for almost all of them. Depending of the point of view, this would either cut you from your powers and City perception, but not from its horrors, akin to falling asleep, or grant you a delusion of sanity, making you muse about others' madness and how are you different while making all the same actions, similar to Alister Grout from VtM: Bloodlines. Possibly - [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs both]].

** There's a couple of problems here. First of all, you'd be using powers born from your madness to cure your madness, which is a little difficult. Secondly, the touch of the Mad City isn't a simple mental condition. It's an entire other reality making love with your psyche, separating yourself from the Mad City - especially while you're inside the Mad City, would require a shit ton more power than most nightmares have.

The transition from Fuck to Fuckwit, if interpret it as intensifying a certain existing aspect, then if I say "I'm so f**king sane", I should get sane, right?

Is it possible to kill a nightmare?
Obviously, ones like Omnipotent third person should be impossible to kill, but what about Officer Tock? or the Tacks Man? If blow a bomb in its face, would it, I don't know, die?
