<Ever hear of the Double-Slit Experiment? It's like that. Each item generates a signature, which cancel each other out--but if you block one slit, the other beams through uninterrupted.>

Lunette knows nothing about the Double-Slit Experiment, GWG, but I do, so to the OOC thread I'll go.

Yes, each item generates a wave/signature, but you're missing the most important point. They'll only cancel each other if the waves/signatures overlap each other perfectly. If they don't overlap each other perfectly then destructive interference won't work perfectly either, and so you'll get bands/areas of magic/void energies that can be detected. So the only way to perfectly overlap the waves/signatures is if they are generated in the exact same location, with the exact same intensity and frequency. So to do that you'd have to create a Void spell that overlaps perfectly with the bracelet magics. Except you now have the to spells with the same location, intensity, frequency, shape, etc. but opposite polarities. In other words the destructive interference from above applies to the spells themselves, and they'll cancel each other out so that you're left with nothing.

Assumptions Made: Creation and Void are completely polar opposites, like electrons and anti-electrons, and not simply mutually exclusive. The interaction between Creation and Void is similar to wave physics. Despite being opposites, the interaction of Void and Creation with the world is the same, except with a few signs flipped here and there.

The magical signatures aren't the light sources themselves. Continuing the analogy, when the light in the double-slit experiment overlapped and destructively interfered, were the light sources affected?

We obviously need to get someone to come in and mediate this shit, because I'm arguing that since Creation and Void are polar opposites, overlapping the spells like that would destroy both of them, whereas you're arguing that they won't.

I'm on GWG's side on this.

My logic is basically that magical items and whatnot are basically like campfires one roasts marshmallows over. You can do work with them, and you can see them, but those things are related to different processes--and you can cook marshmallows while hiding the fire (in theory; in practice, you'd probably get your marshmallow-roasting privileges before you could even set it up).

I argue that to get rid of light, you need the same wavelength, however delayed by half a period. Void magic has a different wavelength, and thus won't mask creation magic

Void is the opposite of Creation. That's not a different wavelength; either it's the opposite phase, or it's a completely different kind of wave.

And if that was the case, just use another Creation magic source out of phase with the bracelet.
