An invisible barrier of magical force appears and protects you. Until the start of your next turn, you have a +5 bonus to AC, including against the triggering attack, and you take no damage from *Magic Missile*. The shield flickers into visibility on impact; a disc of interlocking geometric patterns that glow faintly before dissolving.
