I was wondering if there is any way to remove a character's special ability via script.
What I mean is this: I've appended SPELL.IDS with two custom spells (say SPIN111 SPECIAL_A and SPIN112 SPECIAL_B)
Now I have coded something like this:
IF
Level(Myself,10)
Global("SpecialA","LOCALS",0)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
SetGlobal("SpecialA","LOCALS",1)
AddSpecialAbility("SPIN111")
END
IF
Level(Myself,11)
Global("SpecialB","LOCALS",0)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
SetGlobal("SpecialB","LOCALS",1)
RemoveSpell("SPIN111")
AddSpecialAbility("SPIN112")
END
The problem is that it doesn't remove the old spell. Any suggestions?
Thanx

Create new spell with effect "Remove spell" and set it to be cast when NPC gain a level.

Or you may add this to your script:
If
LevelGT(Myself,10)
Then
RESPONSE #100
RemoveSpell("SPIN111")
END
The problem with your script is that action "RemoveSpell" removes the spell from the list of memorized spells, not from the list of known spells, so when you are rested it will be available again.
Using LevelGT and not checking Global varible will make you to forget the spell immediately after resting.
(After some time I start to think that I may be wrong in both cases. But if I'm wrong then probably someone will correct me soon)

When I try to use the RemoveSpell command now, my entire game just freezes. Strange 
I was thinking along the lines of using the same coding that is used when the PC loses his/her Bhaalspawn powers, but I am as of yet unable to locate that specific spell or script.

Oh, I've definitely seen that spell in NI- it's called Loses all Bhaalpowers or something, so I'm sure the search would pick it up.
I'll have a closer look tomorrow if you want. B)

It is in cut41I.bcs. The relevant command is:
ReallyForceSpell(Player1,LOSE_ALL)
SPIN838.spl is the paarticular spell.
...loses his/her Bhaalspawn powers...

Yup, thanks. I did manage to find the file and am busy extending my script and spell files as needed.
I'll test it out later this week.
