Resist skills ｢レジスト系スキル, rejisuto-kei sukiru｣ are a special category of skills that passively protect the user from being damaged by certain types of attacks or phenomena. They can be intrinsic skills, although they are more often acquired through repeated or prolonged exposure to certain attacks or phenomena.
Types[]
Resist skills come in two varieties, resistances ｢耐性, taisei｣ and nullifications ｢無効, mukō｣. Resistance-types grant the user an extraordinarily high tolerance towards attacks or phenomena of their type while nullification-types make them outright ineffective no matter the intensity. The two flaws with resist skills are that certain abilities are capable of bypassing them and that resist skills for holy and demonic attacks cannot be obtained as nullifications.

Trivia[]
- Some skilled individuals are able to weaken their resist skills. This is often used to lower their Poison Nullification to get drunk.
- While the skill Magic Nullification does exist, it isn't a resist skill and can't be obtained; rather, it is an intrinsic skill exclusive to true giants and greater giants.
