You extend your hand and trace a sigil of warding in the air.

Until the start of your next turn, you have half cover1) that doesn't stack with other cover.
When you are hit by an attack you can end this spell early to gain Resistance against Bludgeoning, Piercing, and Slashing damage dealt by that attack.

A target with half cover has a +2 bonus to AC and Dexterity saving throws.
