[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 5362197, member: 92511"] I'm not sure of the spell description, but I would go with the caster as the origin with the healing magic/energy radiating out from him/her. Well, the caster is the point of origin. The fireball goes from the caster to the desired location for detonation. Hm. I hadn't thought of this, but I would still be prone to say the caster is the origin. That's where the magic energy is being focused and manipulated through the spellcasting and then sent to[I] take effect [/I]wherever in the mage's area of effect. So I'm gonna say caster on this one too. See [I]Mass CLW[/I], above. I don't know that I see the "problem"...anti-magic=no magic. So...no magic. There is no magic possible within an antimagic field. Uh, no. "Caster" waves his hands and mumbles something within an antimagic field...nothing happens. No energy is focused or manipulated or "put on hold"...ANTI-magic...nothing happens. Spell is not able to be cast. Nothing happens because...nothing has happened magic-wise. See above. I am confused why you think someone can cast [I]within [/I]an antimagic field. Now, if they are casting and someone smacks antimagic on them...while casting, then yeah, sionara spell. Regardless of who the recipients are supposed to be, the energy of the magic, being directed by the mage, is negated. Doesn't matter where the recipients are since no spell actually goes off. But again, if the caster is IN the antimagic field...then no actual casting takes place. Say it with me...Anti-magic...Nothing happens. The magic is negated/dissipated/dispelled at the perimeter of the antimagic field. EHHNNT!<BUZZER goes off> No, caster didn't. D) None of the above. Spell is not cast. Period. Caster doesn't LOSE the spell because the spell was not cast. Magical energies are not able to be accessed within an antimagic field. There you go. You're quite welcome. Now one more time before I go cuz I want to be sure it's sunken in... [I][B]"Anti. Magic. Nothing. Happens."[/B][/I] Very good. B-) Happy adventuring. --Steel Dragons. [/QUOTE]
