SHIELD OF FAITH
A shimmering shield surrounds a target and protects them from harm for ten minutes.

ZONE OF TRUTH
This is Merle's special concoction of a magical zone that causes everyone within to be unable to speak deliberate lies. Affected people can feel the spell and are thus aware of it.

MELD INTO STONE
Merle can merge with a stone surface as long as it's the size of him. He can't move while in the stone. He can't see and can barely hear while in the stone. I literally can't remember why or when he would use this ever in the show. But I'm not nerfing it because the potential for hilarity is so great.
