The Spell Data Object represents magic spells. These spells can be
``cast'' or invoked by special character classes, Magic Users and
Clerics. Different spells have different effects. Some are offensive, some are defensive, and others are informational.

The Spell Data Object Editor GUI Window contains entries to edit a Spell Data Object as shown in
Figure~\ref{fig:speWind}.
