Description

When this spell is cast on the target creature it will dispel one spell protection of up to 8th level in strength. Every round thereafter, till the duration of the spell expires, another spell protection will be removed from the target. The spells affected by this are: Minor Spell Turning, Minor Globe Of Invulnerability, Spell Immunity, Globe Of Invulnerability, Minor Spell Deflection, Spell Turning, Spell Deflection, Spell Shield, and Spell Invulnerability. The target's Magic Resistance, if any, does not affect this spell. This will always dispel the highest level of spell protection on the target, and if there are two of the same level protecting a mage, the choice is random.

Limited Wish (Conjuration/Summoning, Invocation/Evocation) Range: Unlimited Duration: Special Casting Time: 9 Area of Effect: Special Saving Throw: Special The Limited Wish is a potent but difficult spell. It fulfills literally, but only partially or for a limited duration, the utterance of the caster. Thus, the actuality of the past, present, or future might be altered (possibly only for the wizard, unless the spell's wording is most carefully stated) in some limited manner. A limited wish will not substantially change major realities, but it can, for example, restore some Hit Points lost by the wizard. Greedy desires usually end in disaster for the wisher. Lastly, the wiser the wizard, the better chance they will choose the right wording. Wizards with low wisdom more often than not meet with disaster when asking for a wish.
