uses a fire spell while on the fire stick

Natural selection at work.

Use firebolt, because it cannot ignite anything worn or held.

If the stake is bigger than you are, is it wearing YOU? Can inanimate objects wear things? Does a mannequin wear clothes? Hmm. I think somebody spiked my raisin bran.

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

No, yes, yes, and was it the purple box? Because also yes probably that was me.

Not again, themeatbridge! We talked about this. Stop putting drugs in my cereal!

They are not wearing the rope or pole any more than they are wearing the platform they are standing on.

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I'd argue they are holding the pole, but point taken. The platform is still flamable. Did you want to use that inspiration token?

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

They are tied to the pole, not holding it.

[–] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

I would be holding onto the pole, especially if it meant I could cast firebolt and not have it catch fire.

I thought those were blobs of nacho cheese

[–] Rampsquatch@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 weeks ago

Molten cheese is no joke. That's at least 3d6 damage. At least.

You don't know if she had cast fire-invulnerability on herself earlier...
