Ralfast the hydrophobic mage inherited a tower in a rather drizzly coastal region when his uncle died. Panicked at the mere thought of getting either wet from the rain or drowned by the waves on the nearby beach, he cracked open his sorcerous grimoire and sought ideas for a solution.

Ralfast’s Ingenious Water Deflector creates a spherical field of faintly glowing blue energy around the caster that impedes any kind of water or liquid from getting in. Thus, if the caster walks under the rain, the drops will slide around the shield, while underwater he will push the liquid aside. This spell, however, does not grant him a limitless air supply, and will suffocate underwater within 1 minute. Additionally, the shield only protects the caster from water-dominant liquids, so otherwise liquid materials such as molten rock or acid can pass through normally. Also, non-liquid water such as ice is similarly unaffected. The shield offers limited protection against creatures with the Water subtype. In order to break through the shield, they must succeed on a Will saving throw. If any creature succeeds, the shield pops and the spell immediately ends. Dispell Magic ends the spell.
