Exert your Mind and spend an Action.
You transform into a Bunny made of ash for the next minute. You may end the effect early and return to your normal form at will. Your structure must remain relatively contiguous. Observers will view you as an unusual entity moving with a singular purpose.

Joe takes a meditative pose and takes a deep breath, during which he establishes his inner peace and then wills it to supernaturally manifest.

If you do, no physical objects or entities can pass into your bubble until the barrier is broken, but you and the barrier cannot move.
