Message: <blockquote data-quote="Joust" data-source="post: 1587228" data-attributes="member: 1803">This question is based on the 3.5 version of the spell.I'm wondering if the protection effects (to AC and saves) of Magic Circle Against Evil move with the creature touched. The area description of the spell says: 10-ft.-radius emanation from touched creature. I interpret that to mean if the creature moves, the spell moves too. But the spell description doesn't say specifically if this is the case, or if the protection given is immobile once cast. I noticed that other emanation spell descriptions usually state whether they affect an area or move with the creature touched.I know this spell can be used in different ways, including trapping a nongood called creature. I can understand that this would be an immobile barrier, but I'm specifically questioning the protection aspects of the spell.The fact that the Arcane material component calls for creating an actual circle on the floor might imply the protection is not mobile; however, the same component is used in Protection from Evil, and that spell description specifically states that the spell moves with the creature touched.I don't know if there has been an official ruling on this. Your input would be appreciated.</blockquote>
