I love the idea of living spells as monsters, but I am not quite sure how they work. The examples seem to all be combat spells. Can other spells be used? If so, does the nature of the spell affect the living spell? For example, I was thinking of creating a Living Wall of Force. If so, would it have the immunities of a wall of force?

Also, what affect would an anti-magic affect have on a living spell? I was thinking of placing a beholder in a complex overrun with living spells. He would use his central eye to "herd" the spells because the anti-magic would be unpleasant to them.

Any answers/thoughts/opinions?

There are two other threads talking about at least this much. The second is an extension of the other and is an effort to apply the template to as many spells as possible.
