A knight's study into strategy tells them almost immediately that a leader
must defend a group's weaker, softer members. However, just standing between
the enemy and those you wish to protect is rarely enough. Many creatures and
most people have some kind of ranged attack, usually a spell, to strike at
distant targets. Knights study this skill to look for the warning signs of
ranged attacks against a specific member in his party, and attempt to
intercept them, blocking them with his own body.
Not every spell can be intercepted. Area spells and touch spells, for example, cannot be blocked, nor can most curses. However, most single-target attack spells can be blocked. Training in both leadership and rescue is crucial for this skill to work.Syntax: use elite guard at <party member>
