Anti-Spell Aura... Silence? Is it possible?

Okay in the game there is an AoE spell I think it's called Silence, and when you cast it, units in a circular area cannot cast spells for a certain amount of time. I was wondering if it would be possible to put this spell into an aura form? So any unit that gets within 1000 range of the unit with the aura cannot cast spells until he or she moves 1000 range away from the unit with the aura? If this is possible, would it be possible to also add mana regeneration to the aura?

i would make a copy of silence that has a duration of 1 second, then every 1 second, create as many dummy caster units as units within 1000 of any unit that has the dummy aura that you created

for mana id make your dummy aura a working copy of brilliance aura

Ehh I was looking for something else. An aura is just so simple, you get a spell called Silence Aura and units within 1000 range of you have Silence on them... But with dummy casters, its very complicated and it will make an already laggy map even laggier. Thanks though.

What i would do is have a single hidden caster following the hero around, casting a modified silence directely on the hero every second, the modified silence having radius 1000, duration 1.5

Code:
Event:
Unti begins casting a spell

Condition:
Boolean comparison- unit has Silence Aura buff

Action:
Unit- issue order with no target- order casting unit to stop

That's all you need really. Screw JASS.
