Armor of Flames is a sorcery protection against fiery attacks.
Description[edit]
While the spell Endure Heat protects against damage caused by lava, it does not defend against fire-based attacks. For these instances, the spell Armor of Flames is used instead. Once cast, the sorcerer is surrounded by blue flames that block any kind of magical fire attack, as well as any natural fire damage. However, it affords no protection against lava. After three minutes, the spell will run its course and its effects will dissipate.
Lore[edit]
