Now, I'm not a physicist nor am I a mathematician. But I do like to think about concepts and ideas that at least sound like they have something to do with physics.
A room outside time is a good example of this.
Let me first explain what I mean when I say a room outside of time. When you enter this room, your time in reality stops flowing and continues inside the room.
Another possibility is that when you enter the room, time stops to exist, but I reject that option. Time is needed for processes to occur. If time would stop to exist, then all that would happen in a room outside of time is you existing there suspended in time, never moving, or more correctly, never changing.
So that's my first problem with a room outside of time.
The second is how one would go about creating such a room. I'm looking for a fantasy/physics/magic explanation here. I guess you could say that it's a pocket dimension, but that feels like cheating. I won't accept the folding of space as a solution.
I was playing with the idea that when there is no matter or energy in a space, then there is no time in that room because there is nothing in the room that can express time through change. The problem with that is, that when a Magus steps into that room, he won't be able to survive because he requires energy from the environment to function. So being in the room would either gradually deplete his inner resources, or he'd need some kind of spell that makes it possible for him to function in that kind of environment.
Any suggestions on a concept to solve this problem? Maybe something analogue to a space suit?
