An Ashen Barrier is a transparent upright panel, 2 m wide and 2 m high. In this open-ground example, a clear route exists around one end.
- Place the transparent vertical panel in empty space on solid ground, with its full area clear. It is 2 m wide and 2 m high.
- From Start, sight and light pass through to Other side. A projectile or spell line of effect stops at the panel.
- Use the clear route around its endpoint to reach Other side, paying normal movement costs. Going around or over it requires a legal route.
- The front view shows that the same panel is upright, with a horizontal 2 m width and vertical 2 m height.
Result: You can see a creature through Ashen Barrier, but cannot shoot a projectile straight through it.
- It blocks creatures, carried objects, projectiles and spell line of effect in both directions, while allowing sight, light, air and water.
- It cannot serve as a floor or bridge.
- In Tactical Mode it fills one ground-level 2 m Space edge and rises one Space. In Cinematic Mode it remains a local 2 m panel; it does not fill the Zone.
- Normal casting, committed Magic Die, range, duration, ending and strength-based breaking rules still apply. Follow any spell’s explicit exceptions.
