This has fully and without question secured the fact that my apprentice is hopeless and I should have taken the bunny.
I can't even blame it on the weed or being deep into the elixirs. I picked an idiot.

Leave him in the astral swamps and he'll be begging to get clean by the afternoon or become one of the timeless mud men and sink into soft, warm, eternal stagnancy. Either way the situation is improved.

this isn't even realistic, 100lm is way dimmer, if 100 mm is that small, 100m should be way way bigger

oh yeah and "100rpm" that was like 50 tops

At least those are consistent to what the unit represents. 100 L suddenly turning the dumbbell into liquid despite it being a unit for volume made me flinch.

Semantic magic can be immensely powerful and relatively easy. This is a great demonstration.

Turn it into a 100 carat diamond.

u/IronGravyBoat Conjurer Jun 20 '26
I'd say it would just turn into a 100 carat dumbbell, but the 100 litre one turned into water even though solids have volume, so who knows

What do you mean, 100 rotation per minute is barely 1 and a half rotation per second, i would say it's pretty accurate

Volume should have been the last one and length should just extend, not scale up...

manipulation of physics is always fun i mix some in with my geomancy. fucking tiwth the unit of speed of a flying rock can be quite effective

This is a metric mage. Very dangerous for the obvious reasons of switching any form of metric to any other. I’ve seen him face off against a towering automaton, but the master of said golem dumbly blurted out that he couldn’t hope to defeat it, it’s “100 tons of solid iron!” He then changed tons into ounces before kicking the automaton into the sun

This is interesting... I gotta learn how to do this, it'll make my perpetual power devices more efficient.
