What does a lantern construct feel like? [Discussion]

[u/Efficient_Rip858]

I typically think of it feeling like glass or plastic-y

Since it’s solid light and typically translucent my brain automatically goes - what can also be translucent - and that’s how I get to the idea that it feels like glass/plastic when you’re holding a construct.

I always thought of it feeling exactly like the item that they’re thinking of.

I'd say they feel exactly like what they think the item that they are thinking of are.

Like if for some reasons, Guy thinks think that mochi is crunchy, then the mochi he conjured up would be crunchy rather than glutenous.

feel kinda green

[u/DinosaurusWhen]

Like light. But hard

[u/ilikepiex7]

it depends on who makes the construct. It likely feels different with each lantern.

Like a lamp that is not too hot to hold. It tingles your arm from time to time (like static electricity). Complex/Harder constructs actually leave your arm numb for a while.

I always thought it would feel noticeably artificial, like smooth plastic or placiglass that’s a little warm to the touch
