Shell is similar to Blink, but for magic defense rather than evasion: it increases the target's magic defense level, allowing them more chances to block magic. Each level of the Spell allows for another potential level increase. Also like Blink, Shell does not increase the target's actual magic resistance rate. This Spell can go a long way towards helping avoid nasty status Spells, and reducing damage Spells somewhat.
