02-05-05, 07:00 PM It grants saves beacause it's a swirling mass of darkness. Wait, that's a bad excuse.

Some modifications, but I'm still not sure on the level:

02-05-05, 08:33 PM Lose the save bonuses and I'd make it 3rd level.
Keep the fortitude save and I'd make it 4th.

Keep the will save and you're approaching Mind Blank with an Armor Class! I don't like it with the will save, and would not permit it so in my campaign. It just doesn't seem to "fit".

However, do you mean for the casting time to be one round instead of a standard action?
I would lean toward the latter.
