Similar to the Ward Spell, once the potion has been quaffed it provides a skintight magical barrier around several targets that absorbs Rank points of lethal damage after an incoming attack is successful. This barrier acts like temporary Health that is absorbed before damage is applied, however, hitting a Ward will still trigger "on hit" effects, such as Fire Armor. When the Warding Elixir has expended all of its protective points, it simply fades away. Example: Quiv casts a Fireball spell at a Lich with a 4 point Ward and rolls 5 successes. The Ward soaks the first 4 successes, and the Lich (as undead suffer mortal damage from fire) takes double damage from the remaining point for a total of 2. Multiple Wards cannot be placed on the same target. Each time a Warding Elixir is consumed, or if the target has a higher Ranked Ward spell cast on her from a different source, any previously-existing Ward is overwritten. The Warding Elixir loses its potency after 24 hours. |
