im wondering how passage through field effect things.
if 4 characters are in a long hallway.
50 feet ahead of them is an silence bubble.
50 feet beyond the bubble there is something creating a loud noise (source is irrelevant)
do the players here the sound? in other words does the sound pass through the bubble, any one inside would not hear anything but does the sound continue on the other side.
in a similar (but totally different sense...
same 4 characters, this time the characters are 20 feet from an anti magic field and 15 feet beyond it is a lich, wearing magic items and cloaked in an illusion making him look like a run of the mill guard at his feet is a small invisible imp the only light in the hallway is a daylight spell anchored just outside of a false window across from the guard.
each character has a different effect up, Detect magic, detect evil, arcane sight and true sight.
how would this effect the characters ability to see.
would any one detect evil or magic? would any one see the invisible imp? would they see through the illusion to recognize the lich as not what he appears?
would they even be able to see anything?
I guess what i am asking is... does the antimagic field block the radiation of magical effects or just the source.
will the light from the daylight spell radiate through or no? will a lightning bolt cast on one end wink out as it passes through the field and continue on the other side... or just dissipate? etc etc etc.
