Iron Mountain: (900 OM) [Requires Physical Strength, Area Defence] Taking up a defensive posture while wielding his sword he focuses on parrying, deflecting, or blocking, strikes and hostile projectiles with the blade or flat face of the weapon. If a volley of attacks are coming towards him he can tighten his focus and parry them in rapid succession, cutting through or simply deflecting them away from his general area. While in this stance he can only shuffle along the ground which cuts his movement speed in half, making it more so for defending rather than avoiding. If he can see the attack about to come he can lower his stance, tensing up and preparing to counter act if given enough time to do so. He can hold this stance for up to ten seconds, allowing him to block or split a very strong attack with his own built up preparation. However he is rooted in place while preparing this, unable to move unless he drops the guard completely.
