Dispel Magic Barriers

[rc_brooks]

If a character has multiple carpets of adhesion cast on them, will a single Dispel Magic Barrier dispel all active "barriers" or just one of them according to "da rulez".

Is it a barrier? I thought it was a hold not a barrier.

Dispell Magic Barriers specifically says it dispells a carpet of adhesion.

however, to answer the question: No, it's a single-target spell, and can only dispell one at a time.

Negate Magic would have a chance of getting them all.

[Nightmask]

Can you even stack Carpet of Adhesion?

Negate Magic would have a chance of getting them all.

Based on what? Nothing in the spell indicates it effects more than one spell at a time.

NS has the right of it.

DMB might work as an area effect spell on multiple magic barriers depending on how the GM reads the text. The spell text is split into two types of outlook. The 1st part of the spell text talks about single spells and the 2nd there is debatable text that might be read that it is able to be used vs a variety of barrier spells or that is works on any of those barrier spells in the target area.

I fall in the reading the text to mean it is able to be used vs a variety of barrier spells. Having some poor word choices. And I have the same reading with the Negate Magic spell.

You would need to have the char research a spell via the spell creation and modification rules (ether from Through the Glass Darkly book or the Mysteries of Magic Book One) to make a spell that has an area effect of negation. Course the resulting spell would not be canon. Which can be a problem with a % of GMs. But if you are the GM then....
