Pierce Any Shield
(Alteration)Level: 9
Range: 0
Components: V, S, M
Casting Time: 1 rd.
Duration: 1 rd.
Area of Effect: Special
Saving Throw: NoneA more powerful version of pierce magic resistance, this spell is cast one round before an offensive spell. The spell cast immediately after pierce any shield cannot be stopped by any known means: magic resistance, spell turning, or absorption, anti-magic shell, counterspell immunity, and so on. The only defense for the target of this spell is a saving throw, if the spell in question allows one. Even then, such rolls suffer a -5 penalty. The pierce any resistance spell does not protect the caster from events that would normally disrupt the casting of the second spell.
The material component is a silver spike of knife.
