Floating Disk


Rules Questions


So I'm making a half crazed sorcerer who floats around naked on a floating disk casting touch attacks. I've read this spell and have a couple questions.

You create a slightly concave, circular plane of force that follows you about and carries loads for you. The disk is 3 feet in diameter and 1 inch deep at its center. It can hold 100 pounds of weight per caster level. If used to transport a liquid, its capacity is 2 gallons. The disk floats approximately 3 feet above the ground at all times and remains level. It floats along horizontally within spell range and will accompany you at a rate of no more than your normal speed each round. If not otherwise directed, it maintains a constant interval of 5 feet between itself and you. The disk winks out of existence when the spell duration expires. The disk also winks out if you move beyond its range or try to take the disk more than 3 feet away from the surface beneath it. When the disk winks out, whatever it was supporting falls to the surface beneath it.

What kind of action is it to direct it?

I remember in 3.5 it was a move action to cause tenser's floating disk to move, but it doesn't specify on directing here.

Direct or Redirect a Spell

Some spells allow you to redirect the effect to new targets or areas after you cast the spell. Redirecting a spell requires a move action and does not provoke attacks of opportunity or require concentration.

Liberty's Edge

As I read it you simply control the range at which the disk stay from you, nothing more.
Directing it you decide if it stay at its default range, 5', less or more (but still within close range).

To make an example, it is a carry on luggage with an adjustable tether, not a remote controlled forklift.


Thank you very much :)

You might be able to tell I don't play casters much (usually the BSF) but this looks to be fun.

Edit: and one second before I post I get another poster who I think is saying I can't sit on it :P sadness
