Yeah, that's in the rolls... drop a net on an astral mage, he'll end up
trying to go through the floor...
The net idea is silly, unless you've got the walls lined. (OTH, the
living earth will work just as well. Hey, what if I drop an elephant or a
blue whale onto an astral mage, uh? (Of course, the elephant or whale
won't be alive for long, so maybe it doesn't really matter. :) ))
