No, that's not what they're saying.

Both spells are 1st level (so it's an extra d6 damage only), and both spells require concentration.

Cant wait to hear this characters backstory.

No, your interpretation leads to absurd results, like a large enough caster casting a spell that creates a 'faintly shimmering barrier 10' around the caster' to actually create it inside of him. If I told you: 'Heat is emanating from that (40' radius) bonfire out to a 20' radius around the...

My caster is Gargantuan (25'x25') space, and 50' tall. Are you saying that when I cast Globe of invulnerability, the area 'around the caster (me)' is not in fact, around me at all, and is somewhere inside of me? The 10' radius radiates 10' around the caster. Any interpretation that leads to the...

The burglar isnt within 50m of the area that radiates out from the city block, so he's not within the 50m radius. We dont measure the 50m that radiates out from the city block from the centre of the block though. We're not using the term geometrically, we're using the term in a plain, natural...

Radius doesnt just apply to geometry, it's also used to describe a general volume or area: Definition of radius | Dictionary.com In this case, the 'radius of X' extends out from the caster, and surrounds the caster to a distance of X. You dont start measuring from the casters internal organs...

Raidus means other things than a circle. In this case it means 'radiating out from the creature that cast the spell X feet, and filling that volume.'

So when I say 'You are not allowed to enter within a 10' radius around that Football stadium', you interpret that to mean 'I cant enter a 10' circle inside the stadium and in the middle of it?' I hope you never get a restraining order placed on you, because the above would be a breach of the order.

Whats nonsense is your interpretation that something that is 'an X radius around a person (the caster)', can literally be inside the person if the caster is bigger than X. Or now you're trying to argue the magic also shrinks the caster to fit inside it as well as the spell effect. Your...

No. I can say 'there are no burglars within a 50m radius of this city block' which is one of the examples used. It means there are no burglars within 50m of the city block, and the block is square. You can use radius, not in strict geometry terms, but something 'radiating' from something.

Not exclusively, no it's not. Definition of RADIUS

If I say to you 'Draw a line in a 10' radius around your house' and you go and do that, do you: 1) Draw a line radiating out 10' from and around your house, or 2) Draw a 20' diameter circle roughly in the middle of your lounge room? 'Radius' isnt just a term of geometry here; it also refers...

The key word here is 'around'. If I draw something AROUND something else, I'm not drawing it potentially INSIDE that thing. If a spellcasting variant Gargantuan Ancient Dragon casts Globe of Invulnerability, the Globe appears 10' AROUND the Dragon, just like the spell says it does. Not as a...

Both. Having both good Stats, is better than only one good Stat. She wasnt a cleric till the staff was broken, and after that we dont see much of her in the books. Evoker. He frequently got tired from (necrotic damage from upcasting spells). He did like his Fireballs and Magic Missiles...

Why else do you think Raistlin went Evil?

@Voadam Imagine you're reading the following text of an adventure: This 300' wide circular room contains a 30' radius (60' diameter) circular pillar in the middle of the room, that extends all the way to the roof. Magical energy crackles from the pillar. There are no other exits from this...

I didnt ask you to draw a 1" radius circle, ignoring the pole though, did I? I asked you to draw a 1" radius around the pole.

Use plain language then. If I draw a 10' radius around an (object or person), do I measure from inside the object or person, or outside of the object or person? Natural language suggests the 10' radius is drawn from the outside of the object or person, seeing as it avoids the absurdity of a 10...

What if it is that big? Are you saying the Globe appears inside the creature? No, the spells I referred to expressly state they create the 10 or 15' radius around you (the caster). If I draw a 1' radius around a circular power or telegraph pole (that itself has a radius of 2'), is the circle...
