{{About|This article refers to the special ability of creatures. For the secondary skill, see [[Resistance]].}}  
'''Magic resistance''' refers to [[creatures]]' ability to resist hostile spell effects. From [[Rampart]] creatures, [[Dwarf and Battle Dwarf|dwarves]] have natural magic resistance, whereas [[Unicorn and War Unicorn|unicorns]] do not have a magic resistance themselves, but they project an aura of magic resistance that they project to adjacent hexes. Addionally, [[crystal dragon]]s in {{sod}} expansion have magic resistance.


'''Magic resistance''' is a [[special ability]] of certain creatures, which grants them a chance to resist hostile spell effects. Magic resistance does not mean that the creature is [[spell immunity|immune]] to spells, and unlike with spell immunity, they can be target of any spell.  
Magic resistance of creatures can be increased with [[Garniture of Interference]], [[Surcoat of Counterpoise]] or [[Boots of Polarity]] [[artifact]]s. Contrary to artifacts like [[Bow of Elven Cherrywood]], the hero wearing artifacts that increase magic resistance, need not have [[Resistance]] [[secondary skill]] in order of them to work. Although, with Resistance skill a hero further enhance the magic resistance of his troops.
