This technique has long been past down in the famous fighting family Arbuckle. If you are remarkable enough to catch the eye and respect of an Arbuckle, you may be taught this this feat by Jean, Jacque, Marcus, or John Arbuckle. This feat may also be unlocked to you if you are to win the favor of the Fat Orange Wise Cat
When any spell has been hurled at you, you may use your reaction to attempt to redirect the spell. If you succeed a DEX check equal to the caster's roll to hit the spell (max of 20), you may catch the spell with your fist or martial weapon of choice and either turn it to hit the ground or just split the spell so that it only does 1/2 damage to the player character. If you fail the DEX check, the spell will do 2x damage to the player character. However, on a critical roll, the spell is not only caught but can be redirected only to the original caster. In this third scenario, the spell has no effect on the target and does the previously rolled damage and full effects onto the caster.
If an ally with your movement range is targeted by a spell by a hostile caster, you may spend your next turn to run to your ally (all movement spent) and attempt to redirect the spell. All damage and effects the spell would have on your ally, now target you as you run in the way of the spell.
