"And now, a Channel 6 editorial reply to Jeremy Baker."
] I have a few questions regarding a comment on page 173 of the 3rd
] ed. rulebook. At the end of the section on Astral Movement it states
] "The Earth is solid on the astral plane, just as it is in
] the physical world; astral forms cannot pass through it. Secure facilities
] are often built underground to keep out astral intruders."
] My questions are-
] How deep underground?

Gurth answered the rest of these, so I'll chip in for this
one...passing through earth takes a base time of thirty minutes per
METRE (wow). You can modify that with a Charisma test, or through
Spirit help, but it comes down to how long you can stay down without
running out of essence. Think of it as swimming underwater. Even with
a SCUBA tank, you're still limited by your air supply.
