Iron Bead

5th-level abjuration

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: Self

Components: V, S, M (an iron bead strung on a strip of oxen hide)

Duration: 10 minutes or until discharged

By casting this spell on the material component, you grant yourself magical protection as long as you wear the bead. For the duration, the bead gives a +4 bonus to the creature’s AC and resistance to all damage. Once it has prevented 90 points of damage, the duration ends, or the beaded strap is removed, the spell ends, and the bead becomes a nonmagical object again.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th or higher, the duration increases by 10 minutes and the amount of damage prevented increases by 10 points for each slot level above 5th.
