Bink's Talent vs. Reverse Wood   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #11310 of 11349 |
I was flipping through The Source of Magic and found something odd. Bink handled
reverse wood, which reverses the talent of any weilding it. Binks talent is
imunity to harm by magic, so it would make him more likely to be harmed by
magic, but his talent protects him from magical threats, and since the wood
would make him more likely to be harmed, it could be a threat. So would the
reverse wood reverse Bink's talent, or would his talent Nullify the wood,
because it is a magic threat?

Also, never take reverse wood for granted; it doesn't always reverse what you think it will reverse. If Bink picks up reverse wood, it may give him protection...
