[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 7078491, member: 19675"] It's powerful, but not an instawin. It only lasts up to a minute, and can only encapsulate one occupant. So while one guy is being "all safe" what's happening to his allies? They might need a little more support from the caster than "Hey guys, that thing's not real!" If the magically generated fog is real, then it's actually bits of water clinging to tiny particles in the air, so while there won't be fog inside the ORS, there will be one outside it, like a nice day in London. ;) As for Solid Fog or Web, nothing in the ORS description says that it grants free movement. In fact, the spell says it can be grabbed and moved by those outside it. So the SF bars the ORS's progress wherever it stands, and the Web may have a chance to ensnare and impede it (the occupant would remain unaffected).* Darkness? That's a tougher one- I'd need to read the spell. Link to current version, anyone? * The last time I was in a group that used this spell in play, many years ago, the ORS occupants tried to go down a hall in which stony hands thrust iron spears at them. They didn't penetrate, but there were so many, the ORS was jammed in place. Retreating out of that passage was damn difficult... [/QUOTE]
