Description	At a cost of 2 magic points, the subject of this rite may call Deflection to prevent one mundane blow (one not accompanied by the damage types Artefact, Corporeal, Elemental or Spiritual) from striking their body. The subject must be conscious to use this boon, but can deflect a blow that might otherwise be mortal, provided they do so immediately, since the blow is stopped before inflicting any damage. This effect cannot be used to defend against any magical blow (one with any of the magical damage types listed above), or against the call Fatal. Note: This rite grants a boon. A character may only have three active boons at any given time.
