People are very easily disturbed from the teleport cast. Any sign of movement by the user is almost guaranteed to disrupt it. Getting hit by someone is probably getting them dragged along or the cast is aborted.
Of course I've actually never seen the RP done this way but I've rolled with it.
I'm arguing for the sake of semantics. A level 1 lalafell has a strength near-comparable to that of a Highlander. They can also teleport at will to a homepoint. It's not really sound to bar one instance of gameplay mechanic as unreasonable while insisting another one is fine A-Okay terrific.
Not saying YOU'RE saying this, but yeah. If we're allowing game mechanics to supervise what's "realistic" to the game, then no one is ever in any danger of being kidnapped or held against their will.
