Changes

So has Retrospec ever changed bodies in a positive way? I woke up this morning, and I was in way better shape. Not that I was in bad shape before, but almost all my body fat is gone. I've got muscle definition and everything. It's like I went to bed and got 10 years worth of exercise all in one night. I'm including this photo since I immediately put on an old cosplay, but don't want to subject you all to my scrawny self without warning. Is this cheating at fitness?

No?

Why not?

[fiddlestick]

I dunno, it sounds messy? All that algae...

[mincingminuet]

Uh, the algae was just an example.

Embiggen just grows you up two size categories.

[fiddlestick]

Oh! Sorry!

...How big's a category?

[mincingminuet]

Oh right.
Okay.

Small Size is around 3 to 4 feet. Medium is 4 up to 7. That's humans, orcs, elves, etc.

Large size is 7 to 15, and there's categories that keep going. Large is the limit of the spell though.

[fiddlestick]

Huh.

So by that I'm somewhere in the lower part of the medium category... so it'd make me 7 to 15 feet tall if I used it?

[mincingminuet]

Yeah. Assuming too, that it's real.

Um. it's a D&D spell after all.

My boyfriend can turn into a 20 foot giant.
And you and I are wizards.

I think we're past the point of pretending D&D spells being real is an impossible idea.

[mincingminuet]

Eh. Still.
It's like in Weirder Things.

The world isn't going to work exactly like in the player's handbook.
But man I wish it did.

[fiddlestick]

Yeah, I guess so...
It's too bad
I feel like magic would be a lot easier if we had actual spellbooks, you know?

[mincingminuet]

I agree.
Hopefully we'll get them one day.

[fiddlestick]

Haha, fingers crossed!
