Abjuration spell being cast.

Abjuration spell being cast.

The abjuration school of magic encompassed protective spells, though some of them have aggressive uses.[1] They created physical or magical barriers, negated magical or physical abilities, harmed trespassers, or even banished the subject of the spell to another plane of existence. The abjuration school had no subschools.[2] A wizard who specialized in abjuration was known as an abjurer.[3]

Some abjuration spells included antimagic field, dispel magic and resist energy.

Creation and destruction, aye, they have their place - but what of prevention entire? The School of Abjuration is the great full stop, the "no" that meets the caster at the end of any phrase.
