Notes:

  1. Lightning Resistance gives a subtraction from each die of Lightning Damage in favour of those Protected, before any saving throws are made or other effects applied (unless those effects expressly state otherwise).
  2. It only benefits those Protected.  Spell Turned Lightning Damage does not receive the Lightning Resistance subtraction in favour of those outside the Radius upon whom it is turned.
  3. The Radius moves with the Target Being / object.
  4. Lightning Resistance is not cumulative with other Lightning Resistance effects which give subtractions to dice of Lightning Damage (apply whichever gives the greatest subtraction).  It is cumulative with other effects which protect against Lightning Damage in other ways (e.g. by giving bonuses to saving throws).
