Antimagic Field and Large / Huge Size from spells.


Rules Questions


Me and a friend had a debate about Antimagic Field and large/huge size from spells and what effect it would have on the enlarged creature. We came to the conclusion of "not sure." This came about because of this line here at the end of Antimagic Field.

"Should a creature be larger than the area enclosed by the barrier, any part of it that lies outside the barrier is unaffected by the field."

I'm probably stretching it but I'm assuming that if someone is large size or larger due to Shapechange, Wild Shape, or whatever is caught partway in the AMF then he remains unaffected mostly by the AMF and remains the larger size. If true this provides a nice advantage for a druid and wizard against a AMFed warrior.

Any thoughts on this? Am I right or am I having a serious case of wishful thinking?

You might say that if half or more of the character's space is within the field, he shrinks down to his normal size. Any Large/Huge body parts outside either are drawn in to his body or he can't use them with full effect.

Any attacks that he makes against creatures inside the field naturally have to pass through it and lose effects of magical alteration to the body part or weapon used to strike, but if he's outside the field wielding a weapon that's naturally Large or Huge, it still might hit with his enhanced strength.
