This spell causes a transparent globe, 2 metres in radius to form around the wizard. The globe acts as a barrier to all matter: no creature may pass through the barrier in either direction, nor may any attack be made through the barrier using physical weapons either against or by the wizard. It does not impede magic in any way: if the wizard is the target of a fireball or a blue dragon's breath weapon, he will still take full damage. The wizard may terminate the spell before the full duration, but he may not lower the globe of force without terminating the spell. A successful dispel magic will bring down the globe. The material component for this spell is a golden globe with silver linings, worth at least 300 gp.
