Englobe question

[mobulis]

Can a barrier that is not non-anchored be used to englobe someone if they are in midair and will the globe fall?

[Steve Long]

A character can use a Barrier with the Non-Anchored Adder to englobe a character in mid-air (provided the Barrier’s long enough to do so, of course). Whether the globe will then fall is up to the GM, and may depend on special effects. For example, common sense and dramatic sense tell us that a Barrier defined as a “wall of rock” will plummet to the ground. On the other hand, a Green Lantern style “energy Barrier” might have no mass to speak of and would just float there. On the other other hand, some GMs might rule that unless the character in the Barrier continues to use Flight, his own weight will make himself and the Barrier fall.
