It's not a math problem but a pointer problem (segmentation fault gives it away).
As line 191 is the first time you de-reference victim, I'd say that's your problem, the victim pointer passed to saves_spell is invalid. You'll need to step back up the stack to find where saves_spell is being called from when the MUD crashes.
