Spell Dampen (3.5e Spell)

The fireball was not as hot as expected.

The touched creature gains spell dampening 4, reducing the effective caster level of all spells which affect it by 4. This may reduce damage, duration, or other effects. If the reduction in range puts the spell outside its new maximum range, the spell fizzles.

At CL 12th and every three levels beyond, the spell dampening rises by 1.
