Default Shock Shield

Couple of simple questions about shock shield.

First, I assume that it must be cast on a living critter. If not, the spell would be subject to gross abuse. (You could cast shock shield on an opponent's weapon, for instance!)

I can't see any reason it has to be a human subject, but I'd omit plants. I'd probably be a bit pissy if anyone tried to cast it on an earthworm and I'd decide that the little bugger couldn't handle the power coursing through him and he'd blow into little, nasty bits.

But my real question is this: Suppose a wizard casts shock shield on a fella in HTH and he gets killed. Often, that will mean his killer is still in the hex at the end of the turn when the spell effects occur. Does the killer take a hit? (I assume so.)

In the odd event that the wizard keeps it powered the next turn, would it still be effective? (May be useful at a chokepoint, for instance.)
