Fun with meld with stone... help?

First Post
Would you as a dm let a player use meld with stone and then wild shape within the stone as long as he didn’t become larger then the stone itself? Would you say that wildshape is like casting a spell on ones self as described in the meld with stone spell description?

Can a spell caster identify the spells cast from a druid while the druid is inside of stone. The spell description says that the druid can cast spells on himself while in stone, but it seems that their would be no somatic or somatic components and thus their would be no component for another caster to identify. what do you think?

and finally, it talks about entering the stone and having to come out of the same surface as the one entered but what if you enter the inside of a circle (like an arena). A circle has only one face and thus could a character enter one end of the inside of the arena and exit from the opposite end of the arena as long as it’s still the inside of the arena?

Yes.

No. In order to identify a spell, you must:

see or hear the spell’s verbal or somatic components

Unless the spellcaster can somehow see the druid moving in the stone or hear what's going on in the stone, he can't use Spellcraft to identify the spell as it's being cast.

I'd rule that you must leave the stone in the same general direction from the same general area you entered it.

This is a "Hide and Wait" spell, not a transport spell. :)


Sorry I didn't answer earlier - I think I missed your post the first time 'round.
 

No problem. Thanks for the quick response after the second post. My dm wanted to know what other dm’s thought of the spell. I also wanted to know what parts of my tactects were legal or not.

Thank you for your input. :D
 



Sorry, it doesn't really address your question. It's a link to a post in the Story Hour forum. It was for amusement purposes really; I should have marked it off-topic.
