Occasionally, if you junction 100x of a spell to the characters' attributes defense, you will see a green-colored star. This marks that the spell being cast on the equipped character will be absorbed. A green star marks 100% protection against the spell [which means it does 0 HP damage.] Over 100% will instantly absorb the spell.
