You create wards that protect the target area. Each warded area has a maximum height of 20 feet and can be shaped. Several stories of a stronghold can be warded by dividing the area among them if you can walk from one to the next while the spell is being cast.

|
|
|
When cast, you can create a password that can make a creature immune to these effects when it is spoken aloud. You may also specify individuals that are unaffected by any or all of the effects that you choose.

|
_Guards and wards_ creates the following effects within the area of the spell.
|
|
|
|
* **_Corridors:_** Corridors are heavily obscured with fog. Additionally, creatures that choose between multiple passages or branches have a 50% chance to unknowingly choose a path other than the one they meant to choose.
|
|
* **_Doors:_** Doors are magically locked as if by an _arcane lock_ spell. Additionally, you may conceal up to 10 doors with an illusion as per the illusory object component of the _minor illusion_ spell to make the doors appear as unadorned wall sections.</ li>

|
* **_Stairs:_** Stairs are filled from top to bottom with webs as per the _web_ spell. Until the spell ends, the webbing strands regrow 10 minutes after they are damaged or destroyed.
