High level? Or high HP? I didn't think your level affects your chance against surviving the death spell...except for maybe how you get more HP as your level increases... [/QUOTE]Perhaps you're thinking of the Power Word spells?
(I know HP doesn't affect the saves for the Power Word spells. I also know they have no saves at all. This is speculation on my part.)

They have no saves, but they only work if the foe has less than a certain number of hit points (I know that Sleep has 20 and Kill has 60, for example).

This is ridicullous. A dead Magic zone is a place where magic does not exist. No magic boots can make magic exist there again for you.

Regarding Dron Cah's earlier comment, and assuming they weren't being sarcastic, tieflings are part demon, part other race. If they tended to lean towards the demonic part of their heritage, it would make sense that they would join in the Blood War that dominates every demon's life. It would be a good way to gain popularity amongst the big boys.

Dead magic zones are areas in Faerun where the Weave does not exist, making spellcasting impossible. It also makes magic boots that allow spellcasting impossible, like Luvian said.
