This post is "sort of" inspired by the quite hilarious "top 10 physical impossibilities" article by flux over at dii.net. I really enjoyed reading that and it got me thinking about some burning questions about the game. If anyone has answers (or questions of their own :) ), let's see if we can shed some light on these mysteries.
- who was isenheart, and why did he have so many breastplates?
- (side question: why does meph have so many of aforementioned breastplates?)
- why is tal's mask (a caster set piece) one of the very few items with dual leech?
- (side question: why is tal's mask so ugly?)
- now, as the article stated, vultures in flight are invulnerable. Now let's think on that for a second. Let's first assume they're out of range of a barbarian who can leap across wide rivers, etc, carrying a 6 foot spear. Let's further assume they're out of range of an amazon shooting an arrow. Let's even furhter assume they're out of range of such sorc skills as lightning, fireball, etc.
How are they high enough to avoid meteors, thunder storms, or blizzards?
How are they high enough to avoid fist of the heavens?
And finally, if they're that high up, and you view the game from above, shouldn't they look really really big while flying?
That's all I have for now. Add your own questions and answers!

"Life is sacred and you are not its steward. You have stewardship over it but you don't own it. You're making a choice to go through this, it's not just happening to you. You're inviting it, and in some ways delighting in it. It's not accidental or coincidental. You're choosing it. You have to realize you've made choices."
