<p>Game wise, you add it to the mortar, it obscures line-of-effect for teleportation and divination, reducing success. The teleportation fails or just moves you as far as you can go without passing through a wall. Divination's get clouded and are not completely accurate. So you need a clear room for divinations and you open a window or use a balcony for teleports. Normally a floor of a tower would be clear of lead so magic would work in and out.</p>
<p>Plates cannot be teleported through, and they stop all divination.</p>

All within the area are covered by the dust, which cannot be removed and continues to sparkle until it fades.</p>
<p>I believe this also applies to the terrain in the AoE, the ground, furniture, vegetation, and what not. It's all covered in sparkling golden dust for the duration.</p>
<p>Normally that won't affect anything, but it's possible that it could. </p>
<p>So the duration is how long the dust continues to sparkle, on those that were within the spell and may have moved out of the AoE as well as the dust covering the spread.</p>
<p>Since the dust cannot be removed, it cannot be kicked up by someone in the area, nor could someone rolling around in the area collect any dust.</p>
<p>Just to be clear, the cloud is instantaneous, then it settles completely, sticking to everything within the area permanently until the duration expires. Only those creatures within the instantaneous cloud need worry about blindness, and only those covered with dust have a stealth penalty.</p>VampByDay wrote:All of these spells seem to stem from a misunderstanding of how the spell works.

<p>We also cut out the northern Stolen Lands map, as in book 1 I believe, so we'd be focused on that area. Then taped it back together for book 2. Then taped the other 3 maps to it when we needed to. I keep it in a tube instead of folding it back up now, folding wore the folds pretty hard.

<p>Wanting it opened so that some players can have access to it, would IMHO make the game less desirable to play for many more players than those it will appease.</p>
<p>There are several areas of of game play that could be added to the game, and might be used by a small minority of players. But these areas the game designers decided to not touch, because they generally detract from the game rather than add to the general enjoyment of the game.</p>
<p>The game does include allowing individual GM's to add whatever they want for their home games, and that's fine. But keep it in your home game, the majority of the gaming community are not interested in such, it detracts from the game.</p>
<p>Not every style of play should be allowed at every game table.</p>Alzrius wrote:Queen Moragan wrote: slachance6 wrote:...

<p>I personally like to think of mythic characters as being more akin to the heroes of myth such as Perseus, Jason, or Achilles. Heroes raised in the mortal world, possibly immortal, welding awesome powers maybe, but still heroes. Rather than powerful mortals reaching for the ladder of divinity and all that, as if it were a new level to take their game, battling other demi-gods, gods and goddesses, taking over their portfolio's and reordering the cosmos. That should be beyond the game's scope.</p>slachance6 wrote:...

<p>Vordakai's island is one of the most lethal parts of KM. I suggest you do a read through of the KM Obituaries and note those areas where most of the fatalities occurred. Play those areas intelligently with no fudging. </p>
<p>Don't let them rest within the island anywhere. Make teleporting into and out of the island random, but within normal. Reset the entrance traps and monsters, or have new ones feeding off the old ones. More dread zombies can always be returning to the island from errands.</p>

It only comes into play when using automatic-fire and burst-fire, and it's effect is to decrease the shooter's accuracy.
