So, on a joke, I was talking to my friends about how it would be funny to
cast a spell to turn the entire earth into a giant Hallow. Given that I
hold a bachelor's degree in mathematics, my curiosity was piqued and I
decided to perform the calculations. The Earth's volume is approximately
1.0832E+12
cubic kilometers. That is to say, 1.41595E+21 cubic yards, which is the
units used in volume affecting spells. Given that each success doubles the
affected volume, the number of successes needed to cast a spell on regular
area affecting rules is the base two log of 1.41595E+21 minus the base two
log of 5. This turns out to be roughly 70 successes. Given with a proper
rote or high gnosis, three successes can be garnished a turn easily, a
gnosis 3 mage could enact a spell that affects the entire globe in 23 hours,
and a gnosis 9 mage could enact such a spell in roughly TWENTY MINUTES. I
thought, hey cool! Then I thought, wait...forces five
radiation...baaaaaadd... So there's my report.
