Default Re: Magic questions - Vertical distance theme.

Mana Pools are generally bigger than one hex. If your feet are in one, then anything in your hands or on your head counts as in one because your body acts just like the Staff spell. You could stand the little one you describe and still enchant a helmet worn on your head.

And what mana pool can you carry around? I have not heard of that. I thought they were tied to the ground.

In the world I described, my primary mana pools are all the same size because they are generated essentially identical geodes. I may have secondary mana pools that result from wave resonances between the geodes. And I may have zero mana zones where the interference between the geodes is totally destructive. But either way, I like the spherical model for mana pools. And I may even enjoy watching players try to scrunch their characters into very small mana pools. Maybe only pixies can make use of the very small ones if their whole body must be in it. That sounds like a lot of interesting 'effects'.
