Interference causes the lesser spirits in the area to interfere with the target's offensive and defensive abilities. A successful warding with Interference will apply a base 15 spiritual target defense (TD) penalty, increased with training in Spiritual Lore, Summoning. Targets are more susceptible to this spell as it has a 30 TD pushdown.

The imparted penalty to attack strength (AS) is twice the penalty to defensive strength (DS). There is also a chance that the target's spell casting will be hindered somewhat depending on the caster's knowledge of the Major Spiritual spell circle.
