Mountain's Bulwark

Not only protecting themselves of course, the most powerful of Topaz Magisters also protect their companions with equal skill and vigor.

Effect

Base Effects Forging and carving the currents of Domhan, you craft the Topaz energies carefully, attaching them and sharing them about yourself and your allies, imbuing you all with the hardiness and resilience of the mountains. You all gain +4 natural armor boost to Armor Score, and Regeneration (5), as well as Immunity to Thunder Damage and knockdowns (so being forced prone) for the duration.

Side/Secondary Effects

Tier II Effects: You may target 1 additional creature. Increase Regen to (10)

Tier III Effects: You may target 1 additional creature. Increase natural armor boost to +8.

Manifestation

As the fight drew into close quarters, Durzi moved to join a group of soldiers readying to meet the orcs on the left, channeling manna as he moved. As he arrived, he quickly identified a trio of young men, barely more than boys, and moved to stand with them, weaving his spell then and letting them feel the bulwark embrace them. "Stick by me laddies, and we'll see of this little sortie!" He roared confidently, taking charge and calming the nerves, even as battle was joined. Spear and axe met armor and flesh, but in that small corner of the battle, those young men and Durzi seemed as if immune. Even blades that found flesh merely felt as if hitting solid stone.
