[does Zeuss eat this?]

Love these discussions on realism.  In the real world, just how often is a man
running from a dragon successful in getting away? 

This game is based on FANTASY, not REALITY.  Two different concepts.
Completely.  If a dragon has just bathed me in fire, I really don't want
someone pointing out that there is no possible way that I could realistically
have survived.  Next, why don't we get into an argument over which magic system
is more realistic (I have seen such arguments before.).

yours in sorcery,

hawk
