Effect	This power augments the abilities of Bastion Hand. While Bastion Hand is active: It grants Medium Cover to all allies within a 5-yard radius of its location as it darts to defend them from incoming threats. You may direct the hand to intercept one ranged or spell attack per round (before it resolves) to strike the Bastion Hand instead. As a Fast Action, you may shift the Bastion Hand up to Rank yards to reposition its protective effect. The Bastion Hand may continue to make strike attacks without interfering with its protection abilities, however initiating a Grapple attack negates the defensive powers for the duration of the Grapple.
