Hide behind the Veil

[not_me]

A question on the Veil Spell -- another semi-ambiguous text...

Targets: One or more creatures, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart Duration: Concentration + 1 hour/level (D) Saving Throw: Will negates; see text Spell Resistance: Yes; see text

You instantly change the appearance of the subjects and then maintain that appearance for the spell’s duration. You can make the subjects appear to be anything you wish. The subjects look, feel, and smell just like the creatures the spell makes them resemble. Affected creatures resume their normal appearances if slain. You must succeed on a Disguise check to duplicate the appearance of a specific individual. This spell gives you a +10 bonus on the check.

The ambiguity is as follows: you can make the subjects appear to be anything you wish. but just like the creatures the spell makes them resemble.

Should that be taken, then, to mean that you can make the subjects appear to be any creature, rather than anything?

The point, I suppose, is rather moot, as one could easilly make the subjects appear as ants, which is about as invisible as making the creatures appear as grass.

Gotta love no-maximum-limit-on-the-affected spells.

Thanks,

-bump-

I take a) no idea or b) all in agreement about ants?

Well, I can't see anything that says -outright- that you can't do this, I'm just having a hard time imagining how this spell can make a human "feel" like an ant, without actually being shrunk in size, which this spell doesn't seem to do... I mean, what happens when someone walks "over" the ants?
