Magic Circle against Evil

Magic Circle against Evil surrounds the caster with a moving circle of protection. Every ally inside it gains a +1 deflection bonus to Armour Class and a +1 bonus on all saving throws against evil creatures, and is immune to their mind-affecting spells. The circle lasts one hour per caster level.

How it works

  • It puts an aura on the caster that moves with them, and lasts one hour per caster level. Extend doubles that, and Empower adds half again.
  • Everyone standing inside gains +1 deflection to Armour Class and +1 to every saving throw, both only against evil creatures, and cannot be touched by mind-affecting magic from them.
  • The bonus holds only while you stay in the circle.
