Martyr's Parry
A bonded protector steps between their partner and an incoming blow, and if it still connects, takes the damage in their partner's place.
Trigger A creature attacks your bonded partner.
Requirements You are wielding a weapon that has the parry trait, and your bonded partner is within reach of one of your melee Strikes with that weapon.
You intercede to absorb the triggering attack. Your bonded partner gains a +2 circumstance bonus to their AC. If the attack still hits, you take the triggering attack's damage instead of your bonded partner, though the attack still uses your bonded partner's defenses for the purposes of determining if it hit or critically hit.
