Spirit Barrier (102)

Spirit Barrier creates a defensive wall of churning air around the target. Physical attacks must move through the air wall, resulting in a bonus to defense and penalty to non-magical attacks.
Effects
- +20 DS/UDF bonus. Additional +1 DS for every 2 Minor Spiritual ranks above two.
- -20 AS/UAF penalty to melee/ranged/unarmed attacks, not including bolt spells. Additional -1 AS for every 2 Minor Spiritual ranks above two.
- A boost to maneuver defense for some creature maneuvers. The spell will protect the user from a maneuver if the maneuver is able to be blocked by a shield. For example, soul golems pushing a character into steam vents can be deflected by a shield, so this spell would give the user protection.
The mana cost increases by +1 MP per three (3) additional DS bonus over the base +20.
When self-cast, a character may end the effect with the STOP verb.
Spirit Barrier can be cast on others subject to a warding roll, with duration determined by the warding margin.
Overtraining in Minor Spiritual spell ranks does not yield additional bonus past the caster's level.
Using Spirit Barrier
This is a very useful defensive spell for casters of bolt spells or users of wands containing bolt spells since there is no bolt AS penalty.
