Protective Bond
At 1st level you can form a bond with another creature to protect them.
As a bonus action you can create protective bond between you and a creature within 60 feet. The bond ends if you use your bonus action to end it, you go unconscious, you and the creature becomes more than 60 feet apart, or 1 minute has passed since you made the bond. While the bond is active the creature you bonded with has resistance to all damage and each time it times damage you take the same amount of damage. You can end the bond at any time (no action required)
If you bond with a creature you have summoned or created with a spell, you don't need to make concentration checks as a results of taking damage through the bond.
