If you like, we could arrange for her abilities to be bound: a miniature Version of Jack's psionic-block spell surrounding her skull, tied in so that it draws on her energy for sustanence; anyone who knows how to tie a spell into a person like that could do it, if that character had also taken the time to examine Jack's psionic blocking spell. Damping dust wouldn't get rid of it; it's under the skin, so a simple dusting wouldn't do anything. If ingested, the dust would act as a poison as the spell drains more of her energy to replenish itself. A little knoweledge of magic on her part could clear her of the block (break the draining runes), or a lot of knoweledge of magic on the part of another. She could be turned over to the Baron to be imprisioned to prevent either of those two occurences, barring someone breaking in to rescue her (for later plot options if we run short on ideas).

hi. my sig explains it, i think. went to the library today, or i would have posted sooner. hmm...ideas for the next post...

personally, if someone's trying to kill me and has a reasonable chance of doing so, i'm going to try to kill them. after all, special rights for women is sexist to. ok, lets see...

i thought you where just flooding the area with magic.

A bit of both: the energy needed to be there to intercept incoming flour so it wouldn't affect his spellcasting, the energy needed to form a shell to seal out the flour, and Jack needed to be protected from the forces he was about to unleash. All three were taken care of by the same shield spell.

ok. um, next time could you specify, in case my brain is tired? which it generally is. i'm trying to change the sleeping habits of a lifetime.

If I remember, I will. Meanwhile, I'll see about editing things to make it a little clearer (but no real content change)

Edit: Done.

By the way... I'll be out camping this weekend, and so won't be available to post tonight, tomorrow, and tomorrow night (I'm not speaking board time - I'm using American West Coast time; it's about 11:30 am here).
