I guess, but it always felt to me like they were tossing it around too much. Edwin doesn't even brag about it. XD

I always thought she was Lawful Scary. Or an extreme variant of Lawful Stupid.

Not to mention the goodness of Contingency, or other such spell triggers, so they can't argue something like "well she wouldn't have time to cast it."

Chain Contingency: enemy encountered. Stoneskin + Fire Shield + additional defense of choice. Bring it, Sendai.
