New spell: Firesight

Kiri walked slowly through the flames and smoke, her brother Golim beside her. As they walked, the people ran backwards through the streets, and the flames fled buildings. Further, and it was reduced to a single point: A roof, set ablaze by a Kadrin spy.

Firesight (Innate)

Level 1

Range: Self

Duration: Until dispelled.

This spell allows the caster(s) to see the full history of anywhere there has been a fire, though it grows hazy the further they are from the location is was at (a maximum of 5 feet from it). Thus, it is usually used in places that have burned down.

Note: This is not limited to the time from the fire's start to the fire's end; the restriction is locational only.

Also, you may recognize the name Golim from the sussuration spell. It is, in fact, the same person.

Vampires and Werewolves: How Much of the Weapon Needs to be Silver/Wood?

Basically what the title says. :)


Some examples:

Does the whole blade of a sword have to be silver/silvered, or just the edges/point?

What about an arrow? Does the whole thing have to be solid silver, just the head, or the shaft coated?

Speaking of arrows, do thy work as stakes? Does the whole the thing have to be wood? What if it's completely covered in metal, but a wooden core?

ADMT Group Project:: Room 11

Well, it's been a while since I did one of these, so I'm going to try and get back to them.

Room 11:

This chamber is covered in glittering frost, and snow falls from the ceiling. The floor is slippery with ice (-1 to hit, damage, and any other applicable rolls), and concealed by the aforementioned snow. (50% chance of finding 10-20 GP worth of small coins, jewels, etc.). It was used by the elves to preserve meat, and is now being used by the Hob-bears to preserve elves.
