    I’m actually fascinated by “fiction science”.

    Like, how much holy does a mist of water need to cause vampire damage?

    Also pondering: what is the range of blessing water? Can a person bless a whole ocean? How much holy energy does a priest need to create true holy damage? Is “holy” in the mind of the beholder, like a business man seeing money as their God and uses a Benjamin as their holy symbol?

      Is holiness dilutable? Like, if there’s insufficient holiness for a given body of water to be considered pure holy, does the holy dilute into a less holy form? Would it still be considered holy water if you have nothing but the diluted stuff? Is there a limit to how much holy a body of water can contain?

        Like, if you mix holy water and tap water in a 50:50 ratio is the resulting water 50% as holy as before?

      Is Holy Water holy because it is water or because it was blessed? Does the blessing remain if water changes state into a gas or a solid?

      If you can have holy vapor, you can have holy ice.
