Covered
Buff
An ally is covering you. All attacks that would be directed to you are redirected to them instead.
Intercept: an Uncommon colorless Skill costing 1, played on an ally in multiplayer. The caster gains 9 Block, or 13 upgraded, and the ally receives Covered.
On arrival: it gives the caster Intercept if needed and registers the ally as covered.
Effect: any attack that scales with powers deals 0 to the covered player, while the interceptor takes attacks aimed at them multiplied by 1 plus the number of players covered.
Ends: with the enemy turn, and Covered also vanishes if the interceptor dies.

Notes
The redirect is two multipliers, not a retarget: the interceptor only pays extra on hits already aimed at them, and intents shown on the covered player never land. Unpowered damage such as Poison still hits the covered player. Two coverers mean two separate instances. The card is absent from solo runs.
Rules and timing
- It is removed at the end of the enemies' turn, whoever has it.
- It only counts damage from Attack cards and enemy attacks. HP loss and damage dealt by relics, potions and other powers do not count.
