@Demhilord: Try AbSpriggan: 9AA38
steve40 - Thanks for reading my request for help and making a suggestion.
I did infact try the code you suggested, so, so far I've tried:
8cc8c
9aa46
9aa38
8cdd1
But I had no luck resolving the problem. Each time I could see the NEW effect except for 8CDD1, and each time the effect left with removespell except for 8CDD1 (no change.)
One item of note though, the entry under ACTIVE EFFECTS vanished. I still have the leaves swirling around but the description is gone.
I'm starting to think this may have been from an enchantment attempt.
I don't expect anyone to fix the problem for me but if someone has the same problem, I'd be interested in hearing about when it occurred for you.
Thanks steve40 for letting me post/document my problem here.
