[QUOTE="Kaodi, post: 2431707, member: 1231"] [b]Hmmm...[/b] Well... PirateCat, in addition to the Soul of Spira, you also mentioned the heart of a sun. I think I have an interesting idea for that one. I'm no master of physics (though two people I game with have their undergraduate degrees in this field), I do recall reading that sometimes when a sun collapses back on itself, it forms a singularity, which we all also know as a black hole. The sphere of annihilation is quite obviously the magical equivalent of a black hole, and so if you reverse engineered the science, perhaps in D&D you could recreate the power of solar fusion using a black hole. To unleash this power, a person would have to enter the appropriate locale with the sphere of annihilation, and then when everything was in place, a special oil of life, created by combining a potion of cure critical wounds, a potion of restoration (both of which as 4th level spells, can't be made into potions by the rules but perhaps the Defenders can also find a way to create them) and the quicksilver from a philosopher's stone, would be poured onto the sphere, and instead of being sucked into it like most everything else would, it reacts to cause a magical fusion effect, which destroys the worms and begins to eat away at the world, at which point a rod of cancellation must be used, briefly returning the sphere to its normal form before resulting in the normal explosion caused by the two items meeting. After that, a sacred ritual must be performed using the Soul of Spira (recovered from Elder) which will deliver the world from the sickness, plagues and disasters which it has been suffering of late. If the Soul isn't restored to its rightful place in time, the force of the explosions in the nest of the worms will cause the planet to break apart anyway. If you were a real RBDM, that part about the ritual to restore Spira wouldn't be revealed to the Defenders until after they had destroyed the worms infestation, and Kodali's Retreat was still hanging in the sky... Muahahaha... [/QUOTE]
