Quick Question About Spells Like "Darkness"

[Magic Rub]

What do use to make your diagrams? AutoCAD?

For this one yes, & I've used 3DS Max for other misc. things.

I don't think a window breaks line of effect (if it isn't thick enough). Glass shouldn't break it, otherwise you could cast a darkness spell in a jar, and then just break it to let the stuff out.

Then again, if you want to be sneaky, cast Darkness, Daylight, and the like on little stones, and slip one of them in a glove. When you need to, yank one out and hurl, if gloves block Darkness.

As to simple 'collumbs' blocking darkness, think of Light and Dark spells effect they very *air*, thus don't create shadows. It's like all sides of someone is lit up, not just coming from one direction, and thus is displaced on the other side. The 'center of origion' is just like where the middle is, so you can center it.

Cast Darkness on one stone, & Daylight on another. Keep them side by side. Would one effect temp. cancel the other where they overlap? (possibly not incl. a hair line on the out side)

I really like beating this thread to DEATH, it's fun.

I also like pictures today

If they are equal level spells, yes.

If they are equal level spells, yes.

Sweet! Mount the stones on to some type of funky hat & you got yourself one nearly useless, but cool effect.

I think we've found the new thing for Kreynold's Pimphat.

Glass would not block darkness. The spell states that a light-proof container blocks the spell. Glass is not light-proof. Glass does block line of effect, though.

 

[Xarlen]

Then just paint the outside of the glass container?

You know, just when you think that infravision was the funkiest damn thing you could encounter in D&D, frickin' light spells show up and bite you in the rear.

LOL

It all seemed so simple before I came to this thread. Now I don't think I know how to walk & chew gum at the same time.
