Wind Wall

Post by Glim » Tue Jul 05, 2005 5:09 am

Syntax: cast 'wind wall'

This spell creates a cylindrical wall of wind around the caster, effectively deflecting and slowing down piercing attacks.

This spell would be like the spell dragonskin, except it would increase resistance to piercing.

Edit: Once again, I like this name better than the other, but if anyone has any
different variations or ideas, please, dont hesitate. :)

I thought a wind surrounding you would generally deflect elemental attacks :)

If "piercing" is the same as arrow-attacks, you could change this to "protection from normal missiles"?

The Forgotten Realms term is Missile Guard, I believe

Missle Shield, actually... but it is functionally the equivalent of the generika Prot. from normal missles, AIR?

Missle shield fits better in a cast command ;)

I thought about protection from normal missiles, but the spell would also include other piercing attacks, like spears and rapiers. I did not think the name would fit, but if it did, thatd be fine.
