E/F/M:

This Casting causes carnivorous, aggressive, and otherwise dangerous animals to avoid the caster and individuals who are within the Area of Effect. For every 10 points of STEEP of the caster in this Sub-Area, another class of animal is protected against. The order of protection based on STEEP is:

STEEP	Creature Protected from:
10	Mammals
20	plus Avians
30	plus Reptiles & Saurations
40	plus Amphibians
50	plus Picids & Crustaceans
60	plus Mollusks & Invertebrates
70	plus Instects & Arachnids
80	plus Amoeboids
90	plus Microbes

Thus, at high STEEP total, the dweomer can extend to the whole of the animal kingdom.
