Full Cover

The pavise is a large enough shield that it can provide full cover as if the wielder was crouching behind a wall. If you crouch down behind a pavise it acts as cover and anything striking you through the pavise must do enough damage to exceed the pavise’s Reliability before damaging you. Each time a pavise takes damage it loses 1 REL.

Nilfgaardian Pavise

A Nilfgaardian pavise is built in such a way that it can be propped up without the use of your hand or any other items. As an action, you can prop up a Nilfgaardian pavise facing one direction. If it takes more than half its Reliabiliy in damage it will fall over. Since it is not in your hand, a propped pavise cannot be used to block, it can only be used for cover.

Mahakaman Pavise

Exactly like the Nilfgaardian pavise, the Mahakaman pavise can be errected in front of you and propped up.
