Hix hurries to cast the spell, but does not get any closer, choosing to bring up a magic shield instead.
OOC:
Probably would have been better to cast the spell
first. Using the illusory object spell to do what I mentioned then shield cantrip aka:
Action 1+2: Illusory Object
Action 3: Shield
[ +- ] Illusory Object
llusory Object (2 Actions)
Illusion, Visual
Cast somatic, verbal
Range 500 feet; Area 20-foot burst
Duration 10 minutes
You create an illusory visual image of a stationary object. The entire image must fit within the spell's area. The object appears to animate naturally, but it doesn't make sounds or generate smells. For example, water would appear to pour down an illusory waterfall, but it would be silent.
Any creature that touches the image or uses the Seek action to examine it can attempt to disbelieve your illusion.
Heightened (2nd) Your image makes appropriate sounds, generates normal smells, and feels right to the touch. The spell gains the auditory trait. The duration increases to 1 hour.
Heightened (5th) As the 2nd-level version, but the duration is unlimited.
[ +- ] Shield
Shield (1 Action) [R]
Abjuration, Cantrip, Force
Cast verbal
Duration until the start of your next turn
You raise a magical shield of force. This counts as using the Raise a Shield action, giving you a +1 circumstance bonus to AC until the start of your next turn, but it doesn't require a hand to use.
While the spell is in effect, you can use the Shield Block reaction with your magic shield. The shield has Hardness 5. After you use Shield Block, the spell ends and you can't cast it again for 10 minutes. Unlike a normal Shield Block, you can use the spell's reaction against the magic missile spell.
Heightening the spell increases the shield's Hardness.
Heightened (3rd) The shield has Hardness 10.
Heightened (5th) The shield has Hardness 15.
Heightened (7th) The shield has Hardness 20.
Heightened (9th) The shield has Hardness 25.
