A technological solution to a mana spell problem.
Siting at work last night guarding something that didn’t need guarding I naturally considered several things SR. in considering mana illusions I was reminded of a TV show that had vampires that included the no reflection trait and vampire hunters that attached mirrors to the side of there guns such that they could detect vampires in there sights, if you cant see it in the mirror sight then it’s a vampire. It occurred to me that an electro-mag sight would not show any mana illusions in much the same way. If you use the technology of the smart link contact lenses to provide you with a constant heads up display of objects it can see you don’t even need to be using a bulky device that may be attached to your gun. Anything you see that doesn’t have a HUD overlay doesn’t exist, if you get a HUD overlay for an object you can’t see its had invisibility cast on it. These tricks don’t work if you use improved invisibility or any other physical illusion but could still be invaluable and, from what I have herd of the SL contacts, would be cheep as chips. Now I ask dose my logic hold true and would such an item be balanced. Edward |
