View Full Version : This is an Unbelievable Outrage! How Dare you!?

Yes, Yes, this is Eberron and not the real world... Yes, Yes, this is a place of magic, imagination and wonder... But The laws of physics still apply. I don't care that we have boats that fly and monsters with the ability to stop time and all this other stuff, A Ice crystal has SIX! I repeat SIX Sides! This is science fact. Snowflakes may have a infinite variety, but they always have SIX Sides.
Yet here in your splash screen You can clearly see a snowflake with eight sides! This is totally unacceptable, and I demand this be fixed immediately. Not tomorrow, but yesterday. What kind of operation are you running here? I will now hold my breath until this outrage has been corrected.

Eberron does not need to adhere to real world science facts :D
Eberron snowflakes come in all shapes , sizes, and sides !

That's not a snowflake. He's a really dumb guy about to get hit in the finger by a mutant shuriken.

His wife is dragging him to Walmart to pick out Christmas tree ornaments. That snowflake is plastic and made in China.

Ok, maybe Eberron's snow isn't made of water, but I'm not picturing a molecule that would make an octagonal crystal. Any chemistry majors in the house? The only condition would be that it can't be a toxic molecule, k?

Having just recently been making paper snowflakes with my students at school, I logged on and thought exactly the same thing as the OP.
I, on the other hand, don't care that it has eight sides! ^^
What does worry me more is the guy has been chopped in half.

I a wizard. I am busy telling the laws of physics to shut up and sit down.
AKA
I am capable of rearranging the fundamental building blocks of the universe in under 6 seconds with enough time left over to move 30 feet. I am capable of manipulating matter and energy on a subatomic level by speaking. A mere flick of my finger is sufficient to alter the gravitational pull of the planet. I shelve physics texts under "fiction" in my personal library! I consider the Laws of Thermodynamics loose guidelines at best! In short, I am grasping the reins of the universe's carriage, and every morning I wake up, look to the heavens, and shout, "Giddy up, boy!" You may never grasp the complexities of what I do, but at least have the courtesy to feign something other than slack-jawed oblivion in my presence. I, sir, am a wizard, and I break more natural laws before breakfast than of which you are even aware!
AKA
Suck 8-sided magic snowflakes!!! :D

Well, the laws of physics are different in Eberron. If you need proof, go run into an object in the antigrav room in Monastery of the Scorpion. One wrong move and BOOM! You are now being hurled by perpetual motion even though you managed to get slammed into a wall.
Oh, and to paraphrase Captian Jean Luc Picard: THERE… ARE… SIX… POINTS!

Well, at least we'll get a save against that damage! Shroud's too hard. Nerf the blades, but add more damage types to them.

If this where the case the snowflake would look like the blades in the shroud, and he'd be standing in them. (at least I would)

Actually, It would be my WarForged that would be holding his breath...

Those guildlines anything like "THE CODE"? Cus even the code was enforced sometimes.

I think dragon pee crystals might have eight sides... could be that one of Aussicrax's relatives is cruising over the harbor...
