[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 7048064, member: 6801845"] First, can you give a reference in the current ruleset? If not this is a DM call. Second, the ghost sinks into the ground and comes up from underneath. Unless you give the hut a floor that it does not state that it has. A hemisphere is literally half of a sphere. Half of a hollow sphere does not include a "floor". Umm ... magic anyone? This is not a physical structure, it's a magical one. Good to know you can derive intent of not only a fictional character, but the WOTC design team. It's a hollow hemisphere and does not state it has a floor. That's all the rules say ... feel free to add to the rules all you want. Imagine you're walking through a forest. You look over and there's a tent. One of those big family size 10 foot tall, 20 foot diameter tents in a small clearing. Do you think you would notice it, even if it was green? That's a hut colored green. Why would you not see it? Even if it was covered in brush? [I]If[/I] you have someone in the party that can apply camoflauge and [I]if[/I] your party takes the time to apply it then you need to determine a DC based on the skill used to do the camoflauge. But it's still a pretty dang huge structure. Admittedly it's going to depend on distance and all sorts of other environmental factors. I would rule that all you can change the color of the hut to a single monochromatic color. It doesn't say it has chameleon-like powers, or that it can have camaflouge-like markings. You can't make it invisible. IMHO you are making a useful spell highly overpowered. That's your prerogative, but to paraphrase The Princess Bride, "I do not think it means what you think it means".
