our groups's first game. I am a long time DM of AD&D, but
that's another story. Anyway I am coming to the font of
wisdom from you long time players.
1. In the section on Banishing a spirit, it talks about the
winner deciding whether or not the spritual combat continues.
What happens if there is an outside attack on the magician
or the spirit? Can they react to the new threat or are they
just victims? How is this resolved?
2. When travelling astrally, it says that someone may pass
through air and water even though they are "living", but
not earth. The reason they give is that both water and air
have a light density. What about a higher density state
(solid) such as ice for water and dry ice for air?
3. I was confused by the ritual sorcery rules. Is ritual
sorcery and exclusive spell action? It kind of implies that
it is, without directly saying so. Later, though, it says
that the mages involved in the spell may sortee out to
fight astrally any attackers. It says that magic pools are
used in the ritual spell and are not available to the
individual mage, except for the spell leader who decides
how they are used in the spell and in the drain. How could
these sorteeing mages cast any spells at their attackers
without knocking themselves out? If the mages in the
ritual spell can just leave the circle, why do you need
an astral guide?
I am eagerly awaiting your responses.
