Would a charge of the Bracers of Archery do anything to cut through the wind? Multiple charges, maybe? This is assuming I make my will save, mind you--otherwise Otto ain't doing much of nothing for a bit.

Question:

What squares exactly can the candle be reached from? I know that it's "any square adjacent" but I want to know for sure so I don't try to move into a square that's actually not eligible.

The candle is located in square T17, so any square adjacent to that which isn't occupied by either the Featherflute or the statue itself (which is in S17).

So the Featherflute is in row T, then? He's kinda sitting on the line between two rows.

We'll call it row T, yes.

So basically, you can reach the candle from the following squares (unless my math is off)

S16, S18, T18, U16, U17, U18

H'm...having run the numbers, I'm seeing a two- to three-foot deflection over a twenty-foot distance. So, it might be possible to shoot the cloud giant, but anything farther away or smaller is Right Out.

Also...the mini-hurricane will disperse the solid fog by the end of the round. So we have that going for us, anyway. :D

I'm not sure where Charles will end up, NT, it depends on how much of a wind boost he gets. I'm guessing Z17 or Z18.

Unfortunately, it isn't a Solid Fog spell, and so it's not going anywhere for a while.

Can it be dispelled, or has that ship sailed once it's actually in effect? Or do you want me to roll a Knowledge (arcana) check to make that call? Same question for the winds, really ....

They're both Dispellable, yes. However, make note of the area limitations on Dispel Magic.

Query:

Since the "psionics are magic" rule is in effect as far as I'm aware, can dispel magic be used to counterspell a psionic power?

Correct, and vice-versa.

I'm going on vacation Saturday, so my web access will be intermittent for the next week (especially Monday-Wednesday). I'll do my best to keep up with things, but I may have to leave default instructions for a few rounds here.
