Ectoplasmic Skin

Range: Self
Duration: 30 mins + 30 / rank
Exp. Mult.: 200
Base Chance:15%
Resist: None
Storage:Potion
Target: Self
Effects:Ectoplasm forms on the Adept's skin and creates an ablative but regenerating layer of defense from harm. This improves their Defense by 2 (+3 per 2 Ranks), and in addition, the first Rank incoming damage points they receive are ignored, counting after all other forms of damage avoidance are applied. This will reset at the beginning of the next Pulse.
Ectoplasmic Skin will not protect against blows directly to EN or Specific Grievous Injuries, nor does it affect attacks that cause harm directly to the Adept (Disruption, Putrid Wound, Necrosis, Hand of Death etc). It will apply to other forms of magical damage, however.
