It seems that the list is for real, and the elemental wall might be our first living spell. While theres going to be some kneejerk reaction against anything eberron, I think this could open the doors to some useful minis being made. A living Bigby's hand, spiritual weapon or flaming sphere would be really welcome by me, since those are spell effects that basically need their own minis. What do you think?

Yeah I am tired of using a four sider for my spiritual weapon. Though spiritual weapons differ byu god, so it may not be a good one ot use.

Everyday I think people can't get any stupider, and every day I am proven horribly wrong!

I dig the concept of a living spell and it's definitely something that works well outside of Eberron.

I second Lab Monkey comment. Living Spells have good uses outside of Eberron. It's a neat idea. Period.

The elemental Wall looks realy neat, better than the prior two earth elementals. If future living spells are along the same lines I'd be game for some more.

Pathetic Earthlings. Hurling your bodies out into the void - without the slightest inkling of who or what is out here. If you had known anything about the true nature of the universe - anything at all - you would have hidden from it in terror.

It's definetly not a living spell. The elemental wall is listed as type elemental. The living spells have the type ooze.

I'd love to see living spells pop up now and then. They're one of the handful of oddities from the later Monster Manuals that I throw at my players on occasion.

Living walls are from the Miniatures Handbook, not Eberron.

I would love to see a Living Spell pop up in a set. And yes they do transend over outside of Eberron very well. I don't recall what spell it was based off of but our DM threw one that was negative energy (cold damage as well). Had one heck of a time playing that battle (ah the fond memories).

You see! There ARE others out there just like me. What? Why are laughing?
