Protection Clause

"Now for your reward!" the monster wolf howls, and it leaps straight for your throat, its yellow fangs bared.

Too petrified to move, you stare wide-eyed at the approaching demon. Just inches from your face, however, the wolf seems to collide with an invisible barrier and bounces several feet away, landing nimbly on its feet.

Enraged, the wolf lets loose a string of unutterably foul expletives. Finally it howls, "Curses! I forgot about the protection clause! You invoked the spirits, so I can't harm you in any way!" Bitterly, the demon wolf spits in your general direction and turns to leave.

"Wait!" you cry. "Where are you going?"

"I may not be able to hurt you," the wolf replies, "but that doesn't mean I can't destroy the rest of the human race." With a wicked giggle, the wolf is gone.

Horrified, you slump to the floor. "What have I done?" you moan.
