[QUOTE="gyor, post: 6476114, member: 6670153"] The Light cantrip, I used to think that the Cantrip was really only of use to see, but it has more creative potentional. The big one is communication. Example say you have The cantrip and your scouting out doors, but within visual range. Different coloured lights could signal different things, like smoke signals, but with light. You also make an object glow and send it with someone as a message, depending on the colour. You could also cast it on an arrow and fire it to send a message. It can also be preformance enhancing, imagine a Bard in a dress who casts light on it to make her outfit stand out. Use it as a distraction, cast it on something and toss it into a room. It even has an offense use, if limited, cast it on a stealthy enemey so they can't hide, or it on thier googles or something. To intimate, cast it on a decapitated head. Want to pretend to be a ghost, grab a bed sheet, cast light on it, cut out two holes for eyes and wear it. Also if one read the description that it can be coloured as you like which I take to mean not only can it be any colour, but that it can be multiple colours. Perhaps even black to create a black lighy effect. [/QUOTE]
