Greater Shield of Lathander

If the recipient of this spell is unwitting or unwilling and engaged in combat, a successful attack roll is necessary to touch that being. The spell's recipient must be touched within three rounds of the spell being cast or the spell is wasted and lost.

Greater shield of Lathander protects a single touched creature from all damage— whether magical, physical, or psionic— on the round after it is touched. The greater shield also suspends the functioning of any magical geas, quest, or other compulsions on the touched being including psionic controls and attacks. Note that protected beings in or placed in damage-taking situations during the round of protection (such as pinned under water, leaping off cliffs, or buried under rockslides or collapsing buildings) are not rendered immune to damage. On the round after the spell expires, they suffer the full normal damage that the situation dictates. Beings can, however, use the round of grace given them by this spell to activate healing or escaping magics.

Notes: Granted by Lathander the Morning Lord of the Forgotten Realms setting.
