In my campaign, there are two spells that *any* mage (or any character with 
the Priest talent) can cast. One is the Bless spell, which is a multipurpose 
spell used to protect against ill fortune and evil magic. (Characters who forgo 
being Blessed at the appropriate times & places suffer a -1 pt curse). 

The second "universal" spell is Magebinding, which is my campaign's answer to 
your question. 

Magebinding (S): This spell removes the subject's ability to cast any spell, 
including this one. The subject must cooperate for the spell to work, but the 
cooperation may be of the sort obtained by holding a dagger at the subject's 
throat. 

Cost: 1 St. Lasts until removed. Any wizard can remove a magebinding for 1 St 
- unless magebound themselves.
