Mental strength

Mental strength was a common spell used by shugenja in Kara-Tur. The spell was very rare outside Kara-Tur.

Effects
A shugenja used this spell to protect themselves or others from charms, enchantments, illusions, possession and telepathic attacks. It provided protection against various spells such as fear, hypnosis and suggestion. The reverse of the spell was mental weakness. It had the opposite affect, lowering a creature's mental fortitude against mental attacks.

Components
In addition to verbal and somatic components, the spell required a material component, the tail from a fox.
