With this spell the Mage calls up insects from the land about him to form a barrier of living bodies which makes him almost impossible to hit. On the first turn the spell does nothing, on the second insects start to swarm about the Mage in a living screen that provides +2 Defence. By the third turn there are enough creatures to give +4 Defence, and by the fourth +5. On the seventh to eighth turns the swarm provides +6 Defence, after that it disperses, the magic no longer holding it together. This spell functions anywhere between the Ice Hills and the Sunward edge of the Drylands.
power+1 Defence for all turns after the first per Power Level
