Hi,
My presence is always an instant fail, but I'll elaborate: By creating a spell that uniquely has a 2-round casting time, you have not only created a spell but a new kind of game mechanic, with a new set of potential rules questions. (What happens if the wizard stops casting the spell after the first round? What happens if someone hits the wizard and causes damage?) This *breaks* the simplicity of existing mechanics. I'll call that an instant fail, because you have not created the game rules to support your brand new game mechanic. This spell is broken, in a way that the spell's doing significantly better damage than its competition is not. (Powerful != broken.) So, I've elaborated, which transforms my presence from being an instant fail to being a perpetual fail. Anyway, KenIf you don't want to participate, your presence is an instant fail. Unless you wish to elaborate, but given you already had that chance...
