[QUOTE="Dandu, post: 7288374, member: 85158"] If we glance at the [URL="http://www.d20srd.org/srd/environment.htm#suffocation"]Suffocation[/URL] rules, we see that: A [URL="http://www.d20srd.org/srd/spells/resilientSphere.htm"]Resilient Sphere[/URL] has a diameter of 1ft per caster level. This is 7 feet at minimum. A chamber 10 feet long on each side has a volume of 1000 cubic feet. A Resilient Sphere with a diameter of 7 feet has a volume which follows the formula (4/3)*3.1415*(7/2)^3. This is roughly 180 cubic feet. (179.589083, 3 repeating to be precise.) The sphere has a volume that is 18% that of the cubic chamber, which we know provides a person with enough air for 6 hours. Thus, the Resilient Sphere, at the first level you can cast it, provides enough air for 6* 0.18 hours. That would be 1.08 hours, or 64.8 minutes. The duration of a CL 7 Resilient Sphere is 7 rounds. Each round is about 6 seconds, so the sphere lasts for 42 seconds. Thus, there is 93 times enough air to breath the sphere, assuming minimum caster level. You can extend it, but there'd still be enough air. You could double the occupant's size, and there'd still be enough air. So it would appear that there is no danger of suffocation if we take RAW at face value. Which, I am lead to believe, is your preferred approach? [/QUOTE]
