[QUOTE="Cerubus Dark, post: 406667, member: 3386"] I could see a bank owner getting True Seeing cast on his video equipment. Then again look at the PC game Arcanum. They say maigc and Tech. really don't mix too well. Magic is hard to tag becuase of its unusual quailties and the rules of sicence don't apply to it. Its all in the way you play it out. If you want to have Wizards and such in Modern times, they will be secritive and hidden from the populace. I hate to say it but in large groups the collective IQ for people no matter how smart drops by 20% for every 10 people. At sports events it drops another 50% for every 5 people if your team losses and the refs made bad calls all night. As for Clerics, well thats really easy. What person would not follow a good god that granted healing? Although telavangilists (?) would be put out of commision because people would be sucking up to their local preacher to get some minor curing spell cast on them or perhaps a blessing. I do see some legal problems with some spells like Zone of Truth, its the same as forcing a "false" confession out of someone. The Judge would have to consider it unworthy of use in court. And there is that whole sticky matter of paramillitry activity with magic. Well I am off to get more drugs pumping into my system. Killer headache time. (sorry if this makes little sence I am running a nice 103 temp here.) [/QUOTE]
