I agree, "reveal target" is about a generic for any system as you could go... I have described it as "Player Character" or "Character level Reveal" because this is the verbiage Rob used when it was discussed years ago.... so was talking apples to apples based on who is defining how RW will work.

To be truely system neutral, IMO, your "reveal target" fits perfectly.

It's a shame that this has not moved forward in years even though (as you state elsewhere) RW already has some of the core coding within its structure already....
