Say a powerful, evil force fixed an ever-burning, dripless (unless they were reeeaaaallly evil) candle to your head. The candle would cast a shadow of itself, and thus you would always be within 10' of a shadow! Hmmm, unless the area was brightly lit already, in which case the candle wouldn't matter.Hypersmurf said:What change?
If your reading of the rules says someone can hide with a candle on their head, I'd say that the same reading would permit them to hide while Faerie Fired.

As far as the faerie fire goes- since you don't actually have to be in the shadow (just within 10' of one) for HIPS to work, I'd say faerie fire wouldn't prohibit you from using it. Since candles only dimly light 5' radius, any shadow that would allow you to HIPS would still exist (unless some very very strange lighting was going on, or your dm was being a complete *expletive*).
