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.
Usage
Lore Benefit
Training in Spiritual Lore, Summoning increases the imparted penalty to a target's TD on follow-up spiritual warding spells at a rate of 1 per seed 5 summation of ranks.
