Song of Defiance (StanceSu)

A bard with this performance can help an ally withstand all attacks made against them.

The bard may choose a single ally (which could be themselves) to affect with this performance. The ally chosen must be within range of the performance (typically within 30 feet of the bard), and must be able to perceive the performance.

Each round that an ally is the beneficiary of this performance, they suffer only one-half normal damage (rounding down) from any attacks or effects that inflict hit point damage. If the target has damage reduction or some other mitigating ability, it is applied to the damage after Song of Defiance divides it. Secondary effects, such as status conditions, are still resolved normally.

No creature may be under the effects of more than one performance, even if they are being performed by different bards.

Finale: The ally that is affected by this performance at the time the finale is triggered may push any enemies that are threatening them up to 10 feet (2 squares) each. This is forced movement.
