Elven Court Guard

An elven noble's sworn bodyguard can swap places with an endangered ally in an instant, taking the blow meant for them instead.

commonElfHumanoid

In the tangled web of lineages, rivalries, and shifting alliances that is an elven noble court, aristocratic families employ bodyguards loyal to them alone.

In play

Interposition [Reaction] Trigger An ally within 15 feet of the guard would take damage; Effect The guard Strides. This movement does not trigger reactions, and the guard must end the Stride in a space adjacent to the ally. The guard then switches places with the ally, taking all damage and associated effects instead of the ally.
