There are ways to protect him/her from just about any attack. Guided Arrow? Amulet of Missile Protection. Earth Attack? Tough bodyguards. The list goes on... Also, any assassination spell can also be guarded against by moving around with a stack of dummy targets (scouts, priests, etc). Elemental resistances and MR protect against spells of mass destruction, and having Retreat as the first order helps against sudden attacks from stealthy armies or troop-sending spells.
