** There's also the Reflect and Dark Shield spells in ''KHII'', which momentarily create a Beehive Barrier around the user. The former follows up with a burst of magic if an enemy attack actually connects with the barrier, making it one of the most dangerous spells in the game once it's been levelled up.

It's also her regular guard ability in ''[[VideoGame/KingdomHeartsBirthBySleep Birth by Sleep]]'' and ''[[VideoGame/KingdomHearts02BirthBySleepAFragmentaryPassage 0.2]]'', emphasising her MagicKnight / SquishyWizard status.

* The Inhibitor bloodline of ''VideoGame/BloodlineChampions'' has a Rune Shield ability which does this. It reduces damage taken, but the real best part of it is if it takes enough damage, it will end, exploding - which means it damages and stun enemies around the shielded target.
* In ''VideoGame/CrashFever'' damage reduction effects appear this way, gaining more tiles the more potent they are.
* ''Franchise/{{Disgaea}}'' uses these in the physical and magical barriers.
