[QUOTE="Rya.Reisender, post: 8832665, member: 6801585"] Basically the question shouldn't be how the AoE looks like, but the question should be where you can place the point of origin when the range is "Self". If you say the point of origin is always the center of where you are standing then for a large creature it would be the grid intersection in the middle of where it stands (which result in a slightly larger AoE than 5x5). For a Huge creature it would again be a cell center so back to an 5x5 AoE. If you say all corners of the creature's area of control are points of origin, then the AoE gets larger, the larger the creature is. If you say the caster has to pick an intersection on one of the cells they control, then the AoE size stays about the same but you get more flexible with the position of the AoE the larger you are.
