Veil of Shade

A thin veil of misty shadow settles over you. Damage done to you is rolled with d(n-2) dice instead of d(n). (e.g., A 3rd-level fireball's damage is rolled with 8d4 instead of 8d6). Damage rolls cannot be decreased below d1. If there are one or more allies within 10 feet of you, and you are targeted by a spell, attack, or other source of damage that would also affect them as well, they receive the damage mitigation benefits of the Veil of Shadows for that damage roll.

(GMs who do not wish to roll two sets of die may approximate the mitigation's affects by subtracting 1 damage for each die rolled from the total.)
