"There was no trace Of ought on that illuminated face...." -Samuel Taylor Coleridge, "Phantom"
Illus. Douglas Shuler

Illus. Mark Tedin

Crystal Keep Rulings Summaries

  • If split for multiple targets, each target can receive only one of the splits. You may not multiply target something. [bethmo 1994/06/01]
  • If the damage to creatures is redirected to the player (via Jade Monolith or other effect), the damage from the Fireball can all be prevented with one use of a Circle of Protection. The trick is that all damage from one use of a spell/ability can be prevented at once. [WotC Rules Team 1996/10/03]
  • The mana spent for extra targets is not part of the mana cost. It's an extra cost. [D'Angelo 2005/12/01]
  • Note - Also see X Costs, Rule G24.1.
