| - | Shield Training allows you to use a shield in your off-hand. You can use a shield to block attacks and energy weapons fire, but cannot use one to make attacks. Physically impacting or barging another player with a shield is not permitted. If you are under fire by energy weapons impacting your shield, you cannot move except to hide behind your shield or slowly retreat. | + | Shield Training allows you to use a shield in your off-hand.

If you are under fire by energy weapons impacting your shield, you cannot move except to hide behind your shield or slowly retreat. Note that when attacks with certain Calls strike your shield you still take the Call effect unless it has been enhanced in some way - the relevant Calls are [[calls_effects#freeze_duration|FREEZE]], [[calls_effects#knockout_duration|KNOCKOUT]], [[calls_effects#REPEL]], [[calls_effects#root_duration|ROOT]] and [[calls_effects#STRIKEDOWN]]. |

| - | Your constitution has become more resilient and resistant to diseases and toxins, slowing their progression in your body. The progression time of Toxin and Disease Conditions is doubled, and for each additional rank of this skill that you possess, it is increased by the same amount again. For example, if you were affected by a toxin which progressed to the next stage in 1 hour, then with 1 rank of this skill it would progress in 3 hours, with 2 ranks it would take 3 hours, with 3 ranks it would take 4 hours, etc. Every rank you purchase increases the cost by one character point. | + | Your constitution has become more resilient and resistant to diseases and toxins, slowing their progression in your body.

| In addition, if you are the Patient in a Surgery (a Physician using a [[card_draw_system|Card Draw Action]] on you), every rank you have in the Steel Viscera skill adds one Green card to the [[card_draw_system#Card Draw Deck]]. This makes it more likely that the surgery will succeed, and reduces the risk of bad things happening. | In addition, if you are the Patient in a Surgery (a Physician using a [[card_draw_system|Card Draw Action]] on you), every rank you have in the Steel Viscera skill adds one Green card to the [[card_draw_system#Card Draw Deck]].
