Reading time: 4 segments. 

When this scroll is read, a 5 ft. radius circle of protection extends from, and moves with, the reader. 

It protects all within its circumference from all physical attacks from undead (ghasts, ghosts, ghouls, shadows, skeletons, spectres, wights, wraiths, vampires, zombies) but not magic spells or other attack forms. 

If a creature leaves the protected area, it is then subject to physical attack as well. 

The protection will restrain up to 35 hit dice/levels of undead; excess hit dice/levels can pass through the circle. 

It remains in effect for 10-80 (10d8) rounds. 

Note: Some protection scrolls of this nature will protect only against certain types of undead (one or more) rather than all undead, at the DM’s option. (Cf. Potions, Undead Control for a die roll table.)
