When this spell is cast, a bit of the caster's life-essence creates a shimmering coat of armor. The armor provides AC 4, and grants the bearer a +3 bonus on saving throws against magical attacks. The armor doesn't add weight or encumbrance, and doesn't interefere with spellcasting.
When the spell ends, the caster must make a saving throw vs. spell or lose the life-essence that went into the armor, taking 2d3 points of damage that will not heal naturally (magical healing will repair it, however).
