-^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Redirection:** Every time your shield successfully blocks an attack, roll a trigger die.

The original attack's trigger die is unchanged when redirected to its new target. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**No Backsies:** You cannot redirect an attack back against the one who made it. | +^{{ra>eye-shield?48|Protection}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Not Today:** You can choose to completely negate a single attack made against you that made it past your shield regardless of its trigger die result. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Selective:** You can only negate attacks that your shield applied a failure chance to, and negating a multi-target attack with your shield only cancels its effect against you personally. Other targets (if any) suffer normally. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Shields Cost Money:** Every time you use Breakaway to negate an attack, you must spend an action and 1 Supplies to repair your shield before you can use it again. |

Your shield does not need to have been hoisted to use this effect. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Third Law:** If the provoking attack was blocked by your shield, you may push the attacker back 5 meters instead of the normal 2. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**I Can't Push Through That:** Other creatures or solid barriers in inconvenient locations can prevent you from pushing a target back as far as you normally might. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Weight Limit:** In order to shove a subject, you must be capable of carrying the subject- this means that you are normally restricted to shoving only creatures of your own size or smaller. |
