[QUOTE="RUMBLETiGER, post: 6278586, member: 6674868"] I few things to decide to answer this question: -In your world, what is the source of Arcane Magic? I know you mentioned Forgotten Realms Weave, I know that arcane magic source is specific to that campaign setting. Other campaign settings either claim a different source for arcane magic such as [COLOR=#3E3E3E](Psi)SeveredHead's mention of [/COLOR][COLOR=#3E3E3E]thaumic field, some campaign settings grant no specific source of Arcane magic. Psionics specifically states being generated from the individual, divine magic comes from either nature or a deity, Arcane is often less clear. So, define this. -Does Earth, the world we live in, have a source of arcane magic that a person with the right understanding can tap into? Since there is no public knowledge answer "Yes", the answer is either "No" or "that is uncommon, secret knowledge". This is a moot point, however, because you're going to play your fictional take on the world we live in, so you as the DM get to decide this. -finally, I am going to answer yes, a Wizard would be able to use magic on Earth if he was transported here, for 1 reason. To my knowledge, conjuration spells cannot be used to bring a creature into an anti-magic field or dead magic zone. Therefore, if the Wizard managed to use magic to arrive on Earth in the first place, than magic had to function on the side of his arrival location. Therefore, magic works on Earth, or he wouldn't have been able to use magic to get to Earth.[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
