=== Casting on the Defensive === | === Casting on the Defensive === | ||
Casting a spell while on the defensive does not provoke an attack of opportunity. It does, however, require a [[concentration]] check, using your bailiwick skill, to concentrate (DC 10 + (spell level x 4)) to successfully cast the spell. Failure means you are unable to cast the spell, and the memorized spell, or the spell slot, is used up. You also waste the action used to make the attempt. | Casting a spell while on the defensive does not provoke an attack of opportunity.

:* '''Example 1:''' A courageous Sorcerer advances into battle to cast a touch spell. They spend a Move action to walk into melee range, and provoke attacks of opportunity from two monsters. One hits, and does damage to the Sorcerer. This damage does not affect their spell casting in any way this round. | :* '''Example 1:''' A courageous Sorcerer advances into battle to cast a touch spell.
