The Flesh Bastion
The Flesh Bastion is a mutilated guardian who turns injury into architecture. Its practitioners reinforce their bodies with iron scar tissue, folded bone, redundant organs, and coagulated blood. They stand where others would fall, redirecting lethal blows onto themselves and raising temporary walls of hardened blood and flesh. A Flesh Bastion does not merely wear armor; it becomes a shelter, barricade, and final line of defense.
