Rank	Name	Description
1	Minor Ward	Conjures a protective magical barrier around the target that prevents Rank non-lethal damage. This barrier acts like temporary Health that is absorbed before damage is assigned. Ward may not prevent damage from Backlash. Multiple Wards will not stack, a higher Rank Ward will overwrite a lower one. The caster may only maintain a number of wards equal to Rank
2	Self Ward	Functions as Minor Ward, except that the protection applies to lethal damage, and only the caster may be affected.
3	Major Ward	Wards against lethal damage may now be cast on other targets.
4	Mass Ward	The caster may Push to include multiple targets when casting Ward.
