The Globe of Invulnerability spell creates a magical sphere around the wizard that is impenetrable to all spells up to the 4th-level.
Description[]
| “ | Globe of Invulnerability This spell creates an immobile, faintly shimmering magical sphere around the caster that prevents any 1st-, 2nd-, 3rd-, or 4th-level spell effects from penetrating (i.e., the area of effect of any such spells does not include the area of the Globe of invulnerability). This includes innate abilities and effects from devices. However, any type of spell can be cast out of the magical sphere, and these pass from the caster of the globe to their subject without affecting the globe. 5th- and higher level spells are not affected by the globe, and magical attacks of 5th-level or higher, such as Spellstrike and Pierce Magic, can bring it down. |

Gameplay[]
Like Spell Immunity and Spell Shield, and unlike spells such as Spell Deflection, Spell Turning or Spell Trap, the Globe protects against AoE attacks.
Dispel Magic and Remove Magic are not stopped by the Globe, they simply ignore it. They also don't dispel the Globe itself, but they can still dispel all other effects on the target.
