(Specific beats general is the core law of this game. What I think that means is the specific conditions of dissonant whispers, targeting based on your ability to hear me made clear by the condition in the spell where if you are deaf it fails, beats the general rule of traditional cover. I strongly believe this spell can be used to target shit you cant see regardless of cover. I personally believe that Dissonant Whispers is a classic bard workhorse spell for these reasons.The idea that some bard spells use targeting based on sound rather than sight is pretty cool and thematically makes sense.)
Dorkas diverts the fire with his own magic, then flails helplessly in the direction of the attack (presumably moving toward it in the process?)
Swigg plays an earie tune penetrating Koplony's Psyche
A burning fog begins to boil around the edges of the arena. Next Round the fog will encroach consuming 10 feet of the arena each round. (Type: 2, fire)
(Round 4: Koplony, Kulum)
(Koplony does not have full cover and us affected by the spell [except maybe because Swigg is short, but I treat all characters as occupying their full five foot cube for unless actively seeking cover, ie. Not attacking or casting offensive spells]. For the sake of consistency, total cover will block even spells like Dissonant Whispers, You do not need to see the target, and I suppose you needn't even know the targets location for this spell.
Edit: Koplony is invisible and silent, cause you both know how to have fun.)
