A bubble surrounds the caster, distorting the very fabric of reality. Anything that comes into contact with the bubble, including incorporeal creatures, is bent around the bubble itself, like water hitting a stone. This process does not damage creatures that come into contact with it, but any that do must make a fortitude save or be stunned for one round.
This bubble has very little effect on anything it bends. For example, if a lightning bolt were aimed at the bubble, it would be bent around and then continue its normal course. Matter that comes into contact with the bubble resumes its normal shape as soon as it is no longer in contact with the bubble.
The caster can, with a DC 35 concentration check, mentally move the bubble. A success means that the bubble moves at a rate of five feet per a round, and for every five that the check exceeds the DC by the bubble moves at another five feet per a round. This is useful for attacking castles because the bubble can easily move through walls, even walls of force.
Teleportation, dimension doors, plane shifts and other similar effects cannot penetrate the bubble. The bubble is considered to be a solid object for the purposes of these spells.
