Death Spell kills opponents instantly and irrevocably. The spell will kill a greater number of weak opponents than strong.

Disintegrate destroys one target. Some creatures, with an innate magic resistance, may avoid the effects of the spell, while most must make a saving throw to survive.

Flesh to Stone causes the target to make a saving throw or be turned into stone.

Globe of Invulnerability protects against 1st through 4th level spells.

Stone to Flesh counters the effects of such magical creatures as cockatrices and medusae. When this spell is cast on a character, there is a possibility that the character will not survive the shock of being restored to flesh. System shock survival is based on a character's constitution.
