I was worried that I had held up the game with my absence, but no, luckily.

Nah, you went the other way. :P

I admit, I did toy with the idea of having Aldeth face the Dragon alone...

If an invisble person sets on fire, would the flames be invisible? After all, the flame in a lantern they carry is, even if the light itself is there.

I would think so: your clothes are invisible too.

Yeah...the fire would probably be invisible alongside you, but the smoke and ashes wouldn't...

Hmm. More questions result.

What about someone's breath on a cold day? If someone spilt a cup of water, when would the water become visible?

I'm guessing it would hide everything is a skin-tight 'field' around you-also applying to what you 'hold' is also affected by the magic. Like, if you pick up a sword or put on a pair of paints, it turns invisible after a moment.

Your breath would be visible, but only if you were literally spitting smoke-I'd assume that everything in a very small personal radius would be shielded from the naked eye.

If you spilled a cup of water on yourself, it would show up for a moment, then turn invisible along with you. If you tossed a cup of water I'd say if would become visible in the air like, 5ft from you. So if you try walking through the rain would literally show a humanoid-sized absent space...

It's probably also limited to a fraction of your carry weight. You can "hold" someone with a grapple, but they wouldn't become invisible. You can get shot with an arrow, and that would probably vanish. But if you were to be shot with a ballista bolt, that would still be visible.
But what if I threw flour on something invisible? Since the flour is not stuck to it, and it cannot hold it, does it become invisible?

But what if you picked up someone who wasn't hostile as a weapon and/or loot? Either in the sense of 'about to beat a motherfucker with another motherfucker' or "GET IN THE BAG! GET IN THE FUCKING BAG!"

Yeah, any 'cloud' sort of thing would make easy to spot-they can hide their presence, but they can't hide their absence. :P

That sounds really profound!

Well, the spell would only affect that single target, I believe. It wouldn't extend to other beings-I don't even think you can hide other, living things that were not a target of the original spell. Something to do with whacky magic, no doubt.

So, if you picked up Feclan (something I approve of) he'd just be floating in the air-if you put him in a bag (also approved), he'd be a little halfling floating around in an invisible sack...

They would reveal you, of course, if anyone could spot them.

No. :P Though I did take a small break, there.

The other game has no real plot, just numbers and just four players who can be run separate from one another if need be. It should be easier to run.
