OOC: The Trial OOC chatter

[*Agony_Aunt]

In future, all such trials I think are going to have to be handled much simpler

There is a fraternity member, trying to earn his stripes, who's suggested a way

Yes, noted.

Besides... I'm sure you'd be hard pressed to force people of the various religions into submitting to "divine probes" of gods they either oppose or don't recognize.

[*Agony_Aunt]

Besides, I already said we wouldn't do it. :P

((It allows a willsave and the caster will not know if it was failed or not :P

So it frankly would almost never work at all.

Reptiller is quite correct, as Zone of Truth is an Area Spell.

Succeeding on a Saving Throw

A creature that successfully saves against a spell that has no obvious physical effects feels a hostile force or a tingle, but cannot deduce the exact nature of the attack. Likewise, if a creature's saving throw succeeds against a targeted spell, you sense that the spell has failed. You do not sense when creatures succeed on saves against effect and area spells.

Just a note. The entire topic is marked OOC :P no need for (( or //. Also to people whom always uses them in general discussion boards too, those are all OOC too :P

Also to be noted: Hildmor doesn't have any of his magic items or buffs on ;) that does affect saves quite a bit if such would be considered.

And tripple noted: It's not used anyway.

To note it, Isendis had multiple copies of both stones sent in, the Fraternity of Order has a copy of both, and the Harmonium had a copy of both. So yes, it would still exist as evidence. He anticipated this sort of scenario.

As Xndar has suggested, anyone who wants to step forward as a witness, go ahead and make your posts.

[*Reptiller]

Only those who are in the case :P

Ehrm...Highly ineffective? :D

The point being, it makes it harder to tell lies. And I guess I did misremember the effects of it somewhat.
