Description¶
This spell is similar to the 6th-level Spell Deflection, causing the spells cast against the wizard to be absorbed and consumed. This affects a total of 4 spell levels. This includes spells cast from scrolls and innate spell-like abilities but excludes area effects that are not centered directly upon the wizard as well as area effects that are stationary, such as Cloudkill and Stinking Cloud. As long as the spell is cast directly at the wizard, it will be absorbed. This spell will affect up to 7th level spells, but if it tries to absorb a spell that goes over its limit, the spell will be absorbed and Minor Spell Deflection will end.
