Wolf109: Hmm. I've tried applying attributes to the Macha Talisman, but was unable to. It said that the talisman was not equipped. I've used "imbue Player Talisman_Macha <xyproperty>". Did you use something else to make it work, Hickory? Or was yours only a suggestion, when you wrote about it?
It was just a suggestion -- I don't use these myself, I just like digging. :)
Anyway, the "Imbue" command takes item
types, not specific names (Armour, not Hide Armour etc.), so try:
imbue Player Talisman <xyproperty>
It may not even be "Talisman", so...
Edit: Ok, it is as I said above re. the command, however, it seems it is broken for talismans. The game will tell you a property has been added, or if it already has one, but it doesn't actually add anything to the blank talisman. To test if this (Macha) talisman is special in some way, so it can't be edited, I added a property via a saved game edit and it
can be given a property (I gave it Asgardian and it works). So the command is broken for talismans as it stands.
