Question about how Silence works Options

[Grits]

When your character is silenced, do magical effects that were cast by the character before they were silenced still work? For example, a shield spell?

Also, would an enchanted weapon still work, specifically one that absorbs magicka? I haven’t been able to arrange this scenario to find out.

Heh, squelch or curse magic or something.

I had thought all special powers were immune to silence, but it looks like that chart is correct. I just had Buffy make a silence on self spell x 30 seconds and cast it. Then while silenced, she tried to cast her Cobra's Dance. No go. Learned something new!

I knew there was a good reason she carried those strong homemade dispel potions!
