Greater Malison
(Enchantment / Charm)

Level: 4
Range: 60 ft.
Components: V
Casting Time: 4
Duration: 2 rds/level
Area of Effect: 30-ft. radius sphere
Saving Throw: None

This spell operates exactly like the 3rd level minor malison spell; it allows a wizard to adversely affect all the saving throws of his enemies. The wizards places a -2 penalty on saving throws of all hostile creatures within the area of effect. Optionally, the wizard can impose a -3 penalty to saving throws against spells from one school of magic. This penalty is not cumulative with the specialist wizard saving throw penalty; the penalty is not increased to -4.
