This spell provides the recipient with a temporary resistance to all electrical spells or effects. The recipient gains a +2 bonus to saving throws against such attack forms, and all damage sustained is reduced by half (to a minimum of 1 point). If the saving throw is successful, only one-quarter damage is sustained.
The material component of this spell is a I-inch-square piece of rubber. This must be placed between the recipient's foot (shod or unshod) and the ground. It must be touched by the recipient and the ground at all times or the spell is ineffective (in other words, this protection effectively immobilizes the protected creature). If conditions are wet, that is, the recipient is standing in water-or in a thunderstorm- the saving throw bonus is reduced to +1, but the resistance to damage is unchanged.
Notes: Very rare in the Shining South of the Forgotten Realms setting; otherwise it is unknown.
