I've always assumed (though it isn't said anywhere in the 3.5 rules) that when an area spell is "centered on you", you select a corner of your space as its point of origin (provided that you're smaller than Large). However, an area spell such as Repel Vermin also states:
And the rules on range say:
So, can you have "off-centre" spell areas where you're closer to one edge of the area than to any other one, and "centered on you" just means "you're somewhere there inside the area"?
Range: 10 ft.
And the rules on range say:
A spell’s range is the maximum distance from you that the spell’s effect can occur, as well as the maximum distance at which you can designate the spell’s point of origin.
So, can you have "off-centre" spell areas where you're closer to one edge of the area than to any other one, and "centered on you" just means "you're somewhere there inside the area"?
