Abjuration (from Latinabjurare, to forswear), a solemn repudiation or renunciation on oath. In English common law, it signified the oath of a person who had taken sanctuary to leave the realm for ever; this was abolished in the reign of James I.
The Oath at Abjuration, in English history, was a solemn disclaimer, taken by members of parliament, clergy and laymen against the right of the Stuarts to the crown, imposed by laws of William III, George I and George III; but its place has since been taken by the oath of allegiance.
All abjurers in the campaign have the resistance to energy variant ability because the setting includes a large number of gates to the elemental planes.
Once per day, an abjurer using this variant can create a mystical shield that grants herself or any one creature that she touches limited protection against a chosen energy type (acid, cold, electricity, fire, or sonic).
At 5th level, an abjurer using this variant gains the ability to spontaneously cast the spell dispel magic.
