[QUOTE="FrogReaver, post: 8256642, member: 6795602"] Not having a soul doesn't impact the game in any mechanical way that I'm aware of. So what if it does or doesn't? I would think it's DM's call on whether it does or not given the lack of rules. I'm fine with DM rulings - especially when something is truly ambiguous. I mean there's always the question of can that creature return to life without it's soul. Is that even a possibility, that's not a rule anywhere either. So another DM call. DM's have to make lots of calls in 5e. I still think you are pushing revivify a little beyond what it can entail. It does require you touch a creature that has died. I'm not sure touching the detached toe of Bob the Wizard would count as a creature. That part is DM call and that's fine. I'm not seeing how that's collateral damage. It's the DM's call as it's clearly ambiguous. How's that collateral damage? Such is the case in any game with DM rulings. I'm not seeing how anything about darkness relates to any of these. The darkness spell isn't based on something ambiguous - it's based on something clearly in the rules and not adding to those rules just because we don't like the outcome. It's not an outlier ruling.
