DESCRIPTION
You cause the creature to wink in and out of time erratically, much to its chagrin. You curse one creature to a frustrating existence on the outskirts of time. The subject shimmers in and out of time and has a 50% miss chance on any melee or ranged attacks (as if the target of the attack had total concealment). Because the magic of the spell only causes the subject to blink when attacking or casting, attackers have no miss chance against her, and spells cast against her affect her normally. Because the blinking is so rapid, she cannot attempt to blink through walls. The subject of a baleful blink spell can cast spells on itself with impunity; in this case, it has no miss chance because the target of its spell (itself) travels along with the spell.
