How about this, you go ask Hestaby her weight, and I'll stand on the other side of the planet. 

Maybe better go to space.  Dragons can go there due to the mana void. 

You can find it.  I've read somewhere (I can't recall exactly which book) that S-K has two carriers that can take Loffy in his dragon form.  They should know.

[I_V_Saur]

Isn't one of those in Rigger 4?

Dragons could absolutely go to space.  The mana void of -12 would just reduce their magic, they'd still have a ton left.

Astral forms (including dual-natured creatures) take damage in a mana void depending on the depth of the background count. In a -12 void, dual-natured creatures like dragons have to resist 12P each Combat Turn. Of course, great dragons all have hardened Mystic Armor 20, so Lofwyr can take a trip to Z-O, for example, and not be affected in the slightest. Any dual-natured creature without at least hardened Mystic Armor 12 will likely be killed in a void in minutes, hours if they're really lucky, or have high Body.

Oh, interesting.  What book/page is that discussed?  I thought it just went off the normal background count rules of magic reduction.

Isn't their Mystic Armor affected by their Magic Rating?  Doesn't their rating actually drop in a void?

So, wouldn't the void drain their MA?

[Mirikon]

Look in Street Magic, feeney, under the section on mana anomalies.

And no, Gun Nut, it is the Critter power Mystic Armor, not the adept power or spell. As such, it is unaffected by voids.

Badass, thanks.  I never noticed that it said astrally perceiving(and dual-natured being specifically)...  I thought it was just atral projection.  I had a duh moment.  So yeah, dragons could totally survive in space's mana void.

[Mirikon]

Great dragons could. Regular dragons only have hardened mystic armor 8. Which means they'd still be having to resist up to 12P per combat turn.

And Hestaby would still be a pretty terrifyingly powerful caster.

[Jareth Valar]

And wouldn't technically "weigh" anything. 

[CanRay]

She would have Mass, however.

Strange, I didn't picture her as being Catholic. 

[Jareth Valar]

True, but I bet she would just LOVE the worship. 

[Mirikon]

Heh. I can just see Hestaby moving to one of the space stations out there, and setting up a spell to allow her to survive in hard vacuum.

[Angelone]

That would be an interesting way to get around her expulsion. Imagine her aboard the Zurich Orbital, bad times for Loffy.
