Greater Shield of the Dawn
Greater Shield of the Dawn
You create a disk of Salsabil's light on one arm.
Any creature that strikes you with a melee attack deals normal damage, but also takes 1d6 points of damage + 1 point per caster level. Half of this damage is fire damage and half is holy damage (as the spell Flame Strike). An undead creature or a creature particularly vulnerable to light that hits you instead takes 2d6 points of damage +1 point per caster level. Creatures with reach weapons are not subject to this damage if they attack you. The shield provides illumination equivalent to a Daylight spell. You can have only one instance of this spell in effect at a time. It does not stack with similar damaging aura spells such as Fire Shield or Shield of the Dawn.
