With this spell, the caster creates an invisible force field that repels nonmagical insects, rodents, spiders, snakes, worms, and similar vermin of less than level 1 creatures. The spell has no effect on giant-sized versions of these creatures unless they are less than level 1. The barrier affects summoned creatures, such as those called by a summon insects spell. Any vermin within the area of effect when the spell is cast are not affected; however, when these creatures exit the area, they cannot return. The spell affects a cubic area whose sides are 10 feet times the caster’s rank(for instance, a rank 2 priest could affect a 20’ x 20’ x 20’ cube. The material components are the caster’s holy symbol and a rodent’s whisker. |
