[QUOTE="Tom Cashel, post: 75026, member: 321"] From the SRD's description of [i]Antimagic field[/i]: "Note: Should the character be larger than the area enclosed by the barrier, any part of the character's person that lies outside the barrier is unaffected by the field." Doc, I think your dragon is the well-handled terror that it should be. However, I think you're cutting your "goateed, system-exploiting" characters too much slack. Everyone "jumping" into a bag of holding? I'd not allow that. A portable hole, yes, but not a bag. From the SRD, assuming they have a Type 4 Bag of Holding, the largest one: "max weight: 1,500 lb., 250 cu. ft. If the bag is overloaded, or if sharp objects pierce it (from inside or outside), the bag ruptures and is ruined. All contents are lost forever." Now, it's a judgement call on your part as to whether the bag is pierced from within...but keep in mind that 250 cubic feet is just a tad bigger than a 6x6x6 cube. Not very big, and certainly not big enough to fit more than, say, three party members. If you did allow them to [i]squeeze[/i] more people into the bag, the chances of a puncture and being "lost forever" would raise significantly. And if they were squeezing into the space, they certainly wouldn't just be diving in like Ringling Bros. clowns into their tiny car...and while they try to fit everyone in the dragon could be breathing on them again and again. At this point, I'd tell your players that you will be implementing the correct "Aid another" rules, explain to them why they can't use their [i]bag of holding[/i] as a party-carrier, and have the dragon come back to kidnap one of them...it has the best possibilities for role-playing and humiliation and, well...hurt.
