1. How is one supposed to treat the portaling system in Amia? Even in a high-magic world, it seems kind of unrealistic that any Joe or Jill with a single PC class level would have a wand that allows them to traverse great distances in an instant. Maybe I'm looking at this the wrong way, but how is this supposed to be RP'd?
2. A similar question, this one regarding respawning and going back to where you died. If one does this, do they disappear and reappear, suddenly fine--or is it revealed that they were really just knocked unconscious after all, and just 'woke up'?
3. What's the consensus on using skill/ability checks for PC-to-PC interactions on Amia? I typically don't bother with them--I'm of the opinion that if you need dice to really get into your character, you're probably doing something wrong. But I'd like to know for sure before I end up stepping on anybody's toes...
4. Is it safe to assume that, magic aside, physics in Amia work generally the same as physics in RL?
Thanks for the help!
