In terms of RAW what order to two (or more) spells take effect if they are cast simultaneously? Background follows below:
Our DM wanted to try a campaign where we all play awakened creatures of some kind. There's 5 of us so we decided we'd play a 1HD awakened animal, plant, undead, construct, and ooze, and I was the 'lucky' one who rolled ooze.
While looking around for good oozes to play I found living spell and had the idea for a 'lesser orb of acid/calm emotions' living spell (both at CL 1 and SL1). It would make a 1HD ooze but I can't figure out whether it actually works. I've found 3 possibilities and I'd love to hear what people think on the matter:
1) calm emotions takes effect, then lesser orb of acid deals 1d8 damage and breaks it making the calm emotions effect useless
2) lesser orb of acid deals 1d8 damage, then calm emotions takes effect calming them so they don't attack back.
3) they take effect simultaneously in which case I have no idea how the effects would stack.
Any thoughts or opinions on the matter would be greatly appreciated.
