Partially absorbs DMG to recover HP

About Damage Absorption

DMG AbsorptionPartially absorbs DMG to recover HP
heals the affected character at the end of turn based on the amount of elemental damage taken from foes.

• The amount of damage-to-healing is determined by the strength of the damage absorption effect.
• Healing is rounded down and can be 0 if the damage taken is sufficiently low.
• The healing effect is treated as a self-heal. Thus, it is affected by the character's healing specs.
• Damage absorption does not reduce the original amount of damage taken.
• Plain damage does not trigger damage absorption.
• Damage taken in excess of remaining HP (such as with GutsCan withstand lethal DMG (Leaves 1 HP)
  Also called "Lethal Attack Dodged") is still healed as long as the character is alive at the end of the turn.
