====Channeling Shield====
**Passive**

A character who has purchased this [[High Magic]] may defend against incoming [[spell qualifier|Spell]] and [[Elemental qualifier]] attacks. This defense may be used no matter what Effect is called with the attack, but it must be a damaging attack with a number attached.

The character must expend an equal amount of [[Channeling points]] from their pool when using [[Channeling Shield]]; if they have insufficient Channeling points available, they may not use this ability. When using [[Channeling Shield]] to stop an attack, the character must call “[[Cloak]]” as a [[Smart]] [[Guard]] defense. This ability may be used any number of times once purchased so long as the character has sufficient [[Channeling Pool]] available.
