The monster version of Cause Fear makes the player unable to move toward the caster, though if the caster closes to melee range, the player will still be able to engage them in melee. Depending on how well you can fight from a distance and what areas of the floor this cuts you off from, this may or may not be a problem. High magic resistance can prevent it.
