Aura of weapons rebounding

An aura of weapons rebounding, or just rebounding is an invisible defence which protects its user from all attack from physical weapons. Whether swords, maces, blackjacks, whips, hammers, or staves — all harm inflicted by wieldable weapons reflects back on the attacker when the aura is up. Attacks from other sources — magical, elemental, or non-weapon (such as dealt by Tekura practitioners), etc — pass through unhindered.

An aura of weapons rebounding is generated by smoking skullcap or malachite and takes seven (7) seconds to take effect. Like a magical shield, any aggressive action on part of the user causes the aura to dissipate, though he or she may move from location to location without disturbing it.
