Our Glamour Merinita is giving headaches again. A while ago we considered some Glamour spells (posted here) and among them there were two Glamour versions of Conjuring the Mystic Tower, one with D:Fire and other with D:Until. Giving the base 10 of making Glamour and these duration modifiers of +3 and +4 the Glamour tower was quite expensive, but then our Merinita thought that there wasn't any need of duration as long as the Creo spell was ritual, as it actually happens with the terram Mystic Tower. After all the rulebook says on page 112 that...
So it's clear that the Mystic Tower, after conjured, is just like a mundane tower. ¿But what happens when one uses ritual creo spells with not-so-straight forms as, in our case, Imaginem? Let's say a magus cast a ritual imaginem spell that creates an illusory bridge, how long does it last? What's the "any other thing of that type" with illusions? Should it last as long as a regular bridge would, just because the looks of a mundane bridge lasts as long as does the bridge?
It gets somewhat clear and scarier when Glamour enters the game. HoH:MC says that...
...so it would seem that a ritual creo glamour spell would just create whatever it creates and last as long as the thing resembled would last, wouldn't it? So our Mystic Tower's glamour version would be like...
Shadow Tower
CrIm 40, R:Touch, D:Mom, T:Ind, ritual.
Creates a tower 80 feet high and 30 feet wide made of Glamour. (Base 10, +1 Touch, +4 Size, +1 Intricacy)
Just 5 levels over the CrTe version, and, considering that and the Vulnerability Flaw issues, maybe with some other boons like no need to stand on solid ground (our Merinita's dream is to move the covenant over some clouds), though that would conflict with the inhertitance of all the properties of the actual thing of that type...
Our Merinita is now talking about creating a ritual spell to conjure his talisman for enchantment... so if he creates a sword, would you give him the Shape & Material modifiers of any regular sword, or something else based in that it's actually not steel or whatever mundane metal, but Glamour?
It all feels a bit odd to me, but after all it's Merinita stuff and some oddness is to be expected... anyway I'd love to hear your thoughts about this (or any other will idea you can get about Glamour).
