Invisiblity Simple and Armor of Ithan

If you cast this two spells on yourself do you become visible?

Does the Force Field of Armor of Ithan give away your location?

No, you do not become visible regardless of order with these particular spells. AoI creates an invisible and noiseless suit of armor, so it won't give you away that way. Now if someone tossed a "sticky" substance (say flour) on to the Invisible person, it will stick and could give away the Invisible person's position depending on how much of the substance stuck (ie how much they can notice, roll Perception checks!), but that would happen even without AoI.

The only way I could see AoI "spoiling" an Invisible effect is if the GM has it as a glowing suit (something seen in artwork which could be artist embellishment as text doesn't indicate this effect) in which case casting order could be a factor (AoI first, Invisibility next otherwise the artist glow would give you away).

Now something like Armor Bizarre (sp?), which creates an organic armor illusion suit to cover the target might become visible. Which will come down to potential GM determined factors like casting order and how they see Invisibility's AOE working (is it a form fitting bubble or is it a bubble or something else, etc).

Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.
