Characters with this skill have hardened themselves against all forms of damage. They effectively have made their bodies into lesser juggernauts.

This skill does not give any form of hit point or armor point bonus, instead it reduces the incoming damage a character is receiving.

The character gains a damage reduction score of two (2) thus reducing all incoming damage that gets through armor by two (2) hit points.

Note: Any armor the character has still would take damage normally.

This skill also renders the character immune to a normal Ambush attack.

Critical Attacks against the character would do one hundred (100) points of damage to the character, unless an appropriate defense such as a spell shield counter acts the attack. (i.e. a Critical Strike against a character who has no defense would cause 100 hit points to the character.)

Note: If a critical attack would render the character below zero (0) hit points they would go to bleeding status rather than critical status.

Master Fortify II has no effect on Lethal or Deadly attacks against the character.
