DESCRIPTION

Reduce the damage the target takes from non-curse sources by 5. Each time you do, the target takes 1 damage at the beginning of their turn for a number of rounds equal to the damage prevented. The damage taken each turn stacks and is tracked separately. This spell can only prevent 5 damage plus 5 damage per caster level (max 30).

The damage does not end when this spell ends. This effect is considered a curse and can only be removed with a remove curse or higher level magic.
