Description
- This spell wreathes you in flame and causes damage to each creature that attacks you in melee. The flames also grant you Immunity to fire-based or cold-based attacks, depending on if you choose cool or warm flames for your Fire Shield.
- Any creature striking you with its body or a handheld weapon deals normal damage, but at the same time the attacker takes 1d6 points of damage + 1 point per caster level (maximum +15). This damage is either Cold Damage (if you choose a chill shield) or Fire Damage (if you choose a warm shield). If the attacker has Spell Resistance, it applies to this effect.
- When casting this spell, you appear to immolate yourself, but the flames are thin and wispy, increasing the light level within 10 feet by one step, up to normal light. The color of the flames is blue or green if the chill shield is cast, violet or red if the warm shield is employed.
- This spell lays an arcane charge on its target(s). If the targets are something other than you or another creature (such as an object or area), the spell lays an arcane charge on you, the caster. Targets which already have an arcane charge present must choose which to keep if the new spell has the same charge type. Only one arcane charge can ever be present on a target at a time.
