Smoke Bomb

For those who would like to stay in the shadows and remain hidden in sight.

Use: It erases the next 15 steps that the user has took.

I do not know if this will be very complicated to script as I do not have any experience in scripting. However, I think this item would be great for those who want to stay away from others and not followed.

what about it erasing the next 15 steps? because until you use such a device, you are still visible, but after using it, it would allow you to get away quickly?

Yes that would work better! I'll edit my usage then. Thank you.

Will the smoke bomb also prevent the lowering of viscosity? Otherwise it will still be possible to track a person in high viscosity areas.

It will not lower viscosity. Yes they can be tracked in those areas but that's when some detective work and playing around with it comes in. It might be better to use it first in a place with lots of people and it won't be as effective in the most remote areas.

I like this. So, essentially, it makes it so that you do not show up on the after math of a scene? I.e. When you leave the scene, your name is not there? Sounds like a neat little trick.

It would also affect the locate spell, I assume?

If you want this to be made, why not try making a [url="http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/10452-cauldron-items-recipe-writing-task/"]cauldron recipy[/url] for it?

Indeed. I suppose it would be fair to negate the locate spell after the smoke bomb is used. Otherwise it would give the hunters too much of an easier time... I think the effect of protection from the locate spell should be around 5 minutes. More than enough time to get away.

I will attempt to create a recipe then. Thank you for letting me know about it!

I don't think it makes sense that a smoke bomb would affect the locate spell. Locate does not use the eyes, it detects your energy signature. It's magic. Smoke bomb or not, you'd be able to be tracked by the locate spell. Consider it a gps built into your beating heart.

Hmm you have a good point Rumi. Perhaps the confusion of the smoke bomb should give the user some time? What do you think?

C

Just have it do the same thing with locate: you can't see the last 15 steps.

Yes Pip that could work too! I do not know for exact because I have never used the Locate spell so I wasn't sure what to do about it!
