'''Spell immunity''' is creature [[special ability]] which makes them unable to be target of the specific spell or a range of spells. The immunity also regards creature abilities which cause the same effect as the specific spell or spells (for example, [[Troglodyte]]s are immune to the [[Blind]] spell as well as [[Unicorn]]s' blinding special ability), even if technically this ability doesn't mean respective spell (for example, [[Green Dragon and Gold Dragon|Gold]] and [[Red Dragon and Black Dragon|Black Dragons]] are immune to the [[Resurrection]] spell as well as [[Angel and Archangel|Archangels]]' resurrecting special ability). | '''Spell immunity''' is creature [[special ability]] which makes them unable to be target of the specific spell or a range of spells.

Spell immunity is creature special ability which makes them unable to be target of the specific spell or a range of spells. The immunity also regards creature abilities which cause the same effect as the specific spell or spells (for example, Troglodytes are immune to the Blind spell as well as Unicorns' blinding special ability), even if technically this ability doesn't mean respective spell (for example, Gold and Black Dragons are immune to the Resurrection spell as well as Archangels' resurrecting special ability).
The Orb of Vulnerability can bypass spell immunity.

Creature abilities
Many creature abilities can be classified as magical or similar to magical. The question arises: if the ability is magical, then how is it influenced by various factors limiting the use of magic? The next table explains how all the creature abilities are working against various magic immunities.
