[QUOTE="RUMBLETiGER, post: 5639574, member: 6674868"] Simply by looking at the entrys you have here I'd answer: 1. Dunno 2. Yes, because of "as if by means of a dimension door spell" should mean just that, it acts as the spell, except as noted in the entry. the only exception noted in the entry is the need for shadows. So, if you are touching them, and if you and the subjects touched are within shadow, because that is a "limitation of the magical transport" 3.Not capible of taking any other actions, because of what you have highlighted in the entry of supernatural abilities. Since it's "unless noted otherwise", and shadow jump states "as the dimensional door spell" and dimensional door spell states "can't take any other actions until next turn", you've deduced this correctly in the selections you've highlighted. 4. you can try, but if there are no shadows, the ability simply doesn't work, you stay where you started. If, lets say, you are in a room, and wish to Shadow Jump to the other side of a wall into another room you can't see, you'd arrive behind a tapestry, under a table or a bed, inside a cupboard, etc if the room was well lit and any of these shadowy spaces were within your range. If the room is currently filled with a daylight spell, you simply stay where you're at. Now, this would be a DM ruling but one possible interpretation of the wording would be to say that If you brought anyone with you, or if you yourself could not fit in said cupboard or whatever shadowy space existed in the room (Breadbox perhaps?) than the "[COLOR=White]If you arrive in a place that is already occupied by a solid body, you and each creature traveling with you take 1d6 points of damage and are shunted to a random open space on a suitable surface within 100 feet of the intended location." rule could kick in and shunt you and anyone else who could not completely fit in the arriving shadow space. Another possible interpretation of the wording would be to simply assume you ooze out of whatever shadow space, so the said breadbox would open and you'd pour out of the shadowy corner and end within a lit area, just for the cool effect. This would be a simpler, kinder take on the ability, and likely more of what was intended. [/COLOR][COLOR=olive][SIZE=4][COLOR=Lime][/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
