Home › Spells › Abjuration spells Abjuration spells
Abjuration is protective magic: wards, barriers, banishing creatures and ending other spells. Shield, Counterspell and Dispel Magic are the school’s staples.
40 abjuration spells in the SRD, 1 of them cantrips; 14 need concentration and 2 can be cast as a ritual. In the 2014 rules, a School of Abjuration wizard copies these into a spellbook for half the usual time and gold.
