Thick Skin is a runic spell that increases the caster’s resistance to combat injuries.

Spell Description

The Avatar could learn this spell by studying the long-abandoned notes of the magician Alorik in the ruined city of Anodunos. Casting it would grant the hero a level of mystical protection greater than that afforded by the Resist Blows spell, although not as great as that which could be attained through the vastly more advanced spell Iron Flesh.

Lore

“	This spell increases resistance to damage, more so than the First Circle spell Resist Blows, and less so than the Eighth Circle spell Iron Flesh. – from Gems of Enlightenment (Ultima Underworld II)

Trivia
