Tell you what. Let's properly suit you up in full armor and stand out in a lightning storm. Tell me how well that logic works for you. xDDD

Technically it is a conductor in parallel with a human body. And when resistance on the conductor is zero compared to the human body, it'll go through there instead of the human body.

The insulator part is there to ensure it goes through the conductor, and the metal isn't directly into touch with the human body neither... armors do have PADDING, which has AIR, an insulator.

The body isn't hermetically sealed in the padding. There are plenty of places in the armor where it directly contacts the skin. I'm not saying that the majority of the energy might not pass through, but when you're talking about a bolt of lightning, even a fraction of it's power can be severely damaging. The steel can only conduct so much electricity before it starts to flow over.

Remember that this is also combat magic, designed specifically to kill knights in full armor. I doubt they'd overlook something like power output.

Bah. Magic.

<Snipped quote by AtomicNut>

A whole part of this fantasy setting, magic exists and by that magic rules exist.

Marianne's spells aren't exactly like true lightning bolts, otherwise she'd die just from casting it once for any number of reasons. xD So, think of it more as magic with the lightning element to it.

Hmm. I'll be honest, I'm tempted to post again to get everyone split up quickly. I'm not sure I should yet though, but hmm.

You're the GM. You control the pacing. xD

I dunno, it's hard to trust the words of an actual cannibal...

<Snipped quote by Rin>

Huh? Cannibal? o.o Who's a cannibal?

She just happens to be nowhere near the knights or, probably, Thaln for now.
