[QUOTE="Longspeak, post: 9040024, member: 7019284"] Haven't really considered the question. But in one of the jobs one of the mercenary crews did... A hobgoblin woman from the Iron Kingdoms got the crew to help her. It seems her brother had become Prince of her city. This is done by combat, and he's always been a bit of a weakling who suddenly dominated in battle, killing their father. She hired the crew to prove her brother used something other than strength and skill, which would nullify his claim, or better to nullify whatever cheating he'd done so she could take him in a fair fight. So, in the Iron Kingdoms, magic would seem to be restricted in... certain uses. (The crew DID find and nullify his advantage, then join the fight when the brother called in minions to fight for him. Then they stood back and watched as the woman broke every bone in her bother's body. And THEN they stopped her from killing him by recommending she set all the bones wrong, and leave his crippled form as a warning to others who would cheat. Took me by surprised when they suggested that, but the woman agreed.) [/QUOTE]
