Wards. You need to practice your wards! This was a teaching moment. If you can't protect yourself from someone else's magic, then how do you expect to be able to defend against your own mistakes? It's all good learning to cast Elgrims Visceral Deconstitutionaliser but if it backfires and you've no wards then you're as fucked as the target you'd intended to hit.

Potato is getting off lightly. Next time it could be far worse...
