Shielding Point Buy is part of the Proficiency System. Its packs allow a Character to use defensive items, represented by shields, crossguards, magic tomes, or other similar items or weapons. Any learned Technique can be used with any item a Character knows how to use, and can be flavored however they'd like. Shielding Point Buy includes a set of abilities designed to protect the user from harm, and their allies.
