It is simply not your time to be hit. Reality itself sees you as the main character and assigns you plot armor. Rendering most attacks ineffective. An obvious warm glow radiates out from your person, softening blows or having them redirected away from you.
The user radiates Causal Diction to the point where it begins to interact with the world around them. On paper, this might seem like a barrier that blocks incoming attacks against the user. However, it would be more accurate to state that objects drawing close to this radiated energy become filled with the desire to miss the intended target and deviate from their chosen course. If more than will the user is exerting is put into an attack, not all of its force will be diverted. It is imperative to understand that this is not a shield. It is merely an interaction between fundamental forces of the universe.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action or Reaction. Roll Charisma + Influence at Difficulty 6.

The psychic power to speak any language spoken by Man, to read any language can be summoned by a latent psychic, tuning into the psychic emanations radiating from the speaker or from the written material.

The Hemomancer's viscous form shudders, reaching a long, surging appendage toward their ally surrounded by enemies.

Joey straightens his arms out, almost as if embracing the world, his right leg slightly over his left leg. Looking into the sky, eyes closed.
