Do you cast a circle or use a shield to protect yourself when casting a spell?

Always! Even when I am not doing a formal ritual or spell, I aways cast a circle of protection. If I didn't , gods only know what might bleed through.

Mairi As Chaoti it is not usual for me to protect myself to whatever I am doing, as chaoti I rather flow with the things, don't worry, chaotis can take a hit! I self use no circles or alike, I do what I do in the flow of the flows! There are many methods to reach ones goal and for me finding the most sufficient and capable method is most important.

I never used circles untill just recently.... i'm still not sure what i prefer. However I'm giving it a chance. . Just recently i have decided to try and not remain solitary. Time will tell if it's the right place for me. -Seven

Hmm... I have used several things when it came to the need of some protection while I cast spells. I don't do it often, and it is illigal to carry around the necessary tools for my best, but I can do without.
I have used a spell circle before, but I am usually attacked by fighters, not mages, which makes it useless to me, and when it is a mage, I know of one thing that works for me.
I usually take a long dagger or sword, make a semicircle around the front of my body, and then stike the dagger/sword into the ground infront of me. It is supposed to drain the spell attacks thrown at me, but only works because of some of my Ki ability.

If I'm working on a bind rune or rune script, I don't bother. Mostly, cause of how I was taught, and partially cause I'd rather go with the flow, and let the designs and patterns just hit me and go "DRAW ME!!! No, not that way! This way!" Same thing goes with other divination based magics. Otherwise, I use at least a circle of salt. If that's not available, mental circle.

wow, I am interested in knowing what you have been taught, because over the last ten minutes you have spoken twice about stuff like that.
