Melgorehn's Aura is a defensive enhancement spell.

It provides:

For each rank of Wizard Base spells known:

  • the duration of the spell is extended by 60 seconds from its base 1200 second duration.
  • the DS bonus is increased by +1 for each rank known over 913.
  • the Elemental TD bonus is increased by +1 for every 3 ranks known over 913.

The mana cost also increases by +1 for every 3 Wizard Base ranks known over 913.

In addition, it provides an unknown defensive benefit against SMRv2 spells and maneuvers.


It is selfcast only, so non-wizards must use a magic item or scroll to obtain its benefits.

It cannot be imbedded using Magic Item Create (420).


The DS bonus is capped at the caster's level. The TD bonus is uncapped.

DS increase = [10 + ((Wizard Spell Ranks - 13))]
TD increase = [20 + ((Wizard Spell Ranks - 13) ÷ 3)]

The DS bonus at 100 Wizard Spell Ranks is 97.
