==Description==

The Mage is capable of putting all of their considerable power into their defenses, allowing them to take a far larger hit than otherwise might be possible.

==Logistics==

Activating this tech consumes the user's Technique action. While using this tech, user's Barrier takes half damage from all sources, while their Levitation speed and all sensory Detection rates are doubled. However, user may not move or cast any offensive spells. On the posts that this is active, the character may expend their Natural Charge in stamina into their barrier to block an equivalent amount of damage. Even if they do not block any damage, they MUST expend a Natural Charge in stamina.

Each post so spent is complete -- user may not break out of this tech in the middle of a post.

This tech can only be used for a total of three posts per day, though not necessarily in the same session.

This tech costs 30 (23/38) tech days.
