Ablative Sphere
Abjuration
Level: Sor/Wiz 2
Components: V, S, M
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: 10 minutes/level
You create a faintly hazy sphere around yourself that does not block vision or interfere with your activities in any way. The sphere provides you DR 5/+1. The sphere also hinders your outgoing attacks; any melee or ranged attacks you make with weapons (not spells or magical abilities) are subject to this DR as well, so if you fired a masterwork bolt from a light crossbow at an enemy, the sphere absorbs the first 5 points of damage from the bolt, and any excess carries over to your target. Once the spell has prevented a total of 10 points of damage per caster level (maximum 100 points), including damage it absorbs from weapon attacks you make, it is discharged.


Material Component: A sphere of sandstone, air-dried clay, or similar solid but fragile substance, through which is pushed an iron nail.
