Protection from the Elements (Wizard Spell)

This spell is usually bestowed by genies on their servants, and its secrets are well-guarded. It confers extensive protection to most harmful effects of a single Elemental Plane. This in­cludes immunity to non-magical winds (includ­ing acidic rain and airborne poisons), earth (including toxic dusts and mineral poisons), fire (including molten metals, smoke, and lava, but not magical flames), or water (including drown­ing and pressure). To cast the spell, the caster must either touch the recipients on the forehead or kiss them (generally on the hand, cheek, or lips) while sprinkling perfume (air), chalk (earth), sulphur (fire), or salt (water) over them. When cast by a genie, the effects last an entire week; when cast by another creature, the effects last but 1 hour, plus 1 hour per level.
Notes: Common for spellcasters from an Arabian setting; otherwise, very rare.
