Prerequisite: You must be equipped with either a shield or heavy armor.
Through your unwavering dedication to protecting your allies, you have become a stalwart defender, willing to throw yourself into the line of fire to shield them from harm, much like the Emperor's chosen guardians.
- You have advantage on saving throws against effects that would cause you to be restrained or incapacitated.
- When an enemy makes an attack against an ally that you can see, you can use your reaction to swap places with the ally being attacked by pushing them 5 feet behind you and moving into their previous position. To do so, you must have enough movement speed to reach the ally's position.
- If the original attack would have hit the original creature, the enemy resolves damage on you instead.
- When you successfully intercept an attack using this feat, you can make a single melee weapon attack against the creature that attacked you as part of the same reaction, provided the creature is within your reach.
- You can use this ability a number of times equal to 2 + your Constitution modifier. You regain all expended uses after completing a short or long rest.
