In my many attempts to make more content for Strife, I tried to make every variant of the Acolyte (Except the Rust and Dark Green variants, because they're too close to other colors) unique. The biggest problem was the Blue variant, because the one time they're used in Strife, they're implied to be some kind of specialist. I wanted to give them some kind of support ability.

After several months, I finally got a good idea: Use A_RadiusGive to give surrounding monsters some kind of overshield (armor pickup)! It pulses three times, each pulse gives 10 points of armor that absorbs 90% of damage, up to a maximum of 50 points absorbed.

Looks a little odd when used with larger monsters, but otherwise it works excellently! :D
