Only limited by the enchanter's patience and locations to place them.

As for Gust, it's not a summoning ability, thus magical anti-summoning defenses won't affect the physical movement.

What's the order of mob strength again? e.g. weak and feeble all the way to god-like power?

Can you fight a denizen (npc) and survive? Use the CONSIDER command to help you
make an educated guess!

CONSIDER will compare your might, which is a rough comparison of
how many lessons you have spent in learning skills.

CONSIDER gives a general idea of the power of the denizen. For
example, CONSIDER rat might say "A rat is quite powerful."

NOTE: this is not how powerful the denizen is relative to you. This is on an
absolute scale.

The messages you may see when you type the consider command for a denizen, in
order from strongest to weakest, are:

almost glows with nearly god-like power
does not even register your presence as a threat
exudes an aura of overwhelming power
has an air of extreme strength
looks to be crushingly strong
appears to be extraordinarily strong
is quite powerful
is not one to be trifled with
seems strong and confident
exudes a quiet confidence
seems to be unafraid
appears to lack strength
does not look particularly dangerous
is a humble-looking creature
looks relatively helpless
looks weak and feeble

I've always wondered... Communes get power from totems (and a rather substantial amount at that); do cities gain power from statues as well?

There ya go!

no, but as tradeoff enchanted statues can be placed in any -outside- urban area (eg poor largerly indoor hallifax!) while totems need to be in your forest territory (I think, at least I don't see totems on etherwilde)

Oh also tradeskill VS guildskill

And statues do not revert but do need maintenance

Think I got it all now

Okay... Can anyone explain how this happened?

Before you blame it on hibernation, it didn't blow away immediately upon the shift of days as they normally do but rather when I harvested it, nor is it the hibernation month for Arnica yet for five months. It looks like six plants just... disappeared.

If there's less than ten plants in the room, sometimes they just die.

Never seen it happen before, and I often harvest to 5 (and in rare cases keep them at 5 for half a month, if I need the herbs badly). And it didn't die on the day change either, but just as I harvested it... Never had plants disappear on me when I plant just one per room right after hibernation either. How often do they just disappear?

Pretty much touching an herb on its dormant month carries a (low) chance of the herb blowing away, no matter how many there are. They only disappear in a meld or on their dormant months, though, and it's impossible to plant during dormancy.

It's still a shock when you run into it. I remember the first time it happened to me. "60 myrtle! Yay!" *harvest myrtle* "...crap." Not that I don't still bypass Treant's no-harvesting-in-hibernation rule from time to time, but it's worth knowing the risk.

Well, given my area of focus is largely building, events, creative design and things of that nature, and not combat (that's more Sior's area), it's pretty easy for me to overlook something small like that. Sorry. No need for the attitude!
