When cast on a subject, this spell absorbs the next level drain attack on the subject and is then used up. Eg., if the spell were cast on a target who was then later hit by two spectres in the same round, the first hit would only do damage and not drain levels but the second hit would drain levels as normal. The material component of this spell is a bit of sponge.
