Dispel Magic
In the game: help spell dispel magic
cast 'dispel magic' <victim>- Accumulative: Yes
- Duration: Instantaneous
- Save: See below.
This spell attempts to remove most spell affects from the victim. If the victim's level is no higher than the spell's (the caster's level in the class that casts it), the dispelling will always work. Otherwise the victim gets a save vs. spells for each spell affect the victim has. A polymorphed player who fails a save is forced back to their own form. Cast on an object, it removes its glow; from level 45, its magic, and a wand's, staff's, potion's or scroll's spells. If the victim fails the saving throw, the spell affect is removed. This spell is not hostile when cast on other Player Characters, but monsters will generally take offense at it.
