Can a dybbuk hurt a hell hound or a vampire with an unarmed strike? If so, couldn't any being with supernatural strength do the same?

I assume you've gotten snagged on the limited invulnerability of such creatures.

I generally rule that if it doesn't specifically say, supernatural strength is equal to a magic weapon in these cases.
There you go man, keep as cool as you can.
Face piles of trials with smiles. It riles
them to believe that you perceive the web they weave
and keep on thinking free.

That was my reasoning, too, but Palladium isn't written tightly enough for me to be sure.

The Genius/Natural will be happy that he can use his mad kung-fu to go psycho-clown crazy on any corporeal monster. Like in Mr. Vampire.
