A soldier sacrificing themselves as a distraction to save their friend.

Wields a Load Application of Sanctuary Entrenchment.
Diffusing outward establishes a sanctuary anchored on themselves, a target, or a point. Within this zone, any individual who attempts to act against Sanctuary's intention experiences sensations of unease and imminent danger, causing actions to falter and disrupting commitment. Those suppressed can push through it.
Placing a sanctuary on an ally with the intent of keeping them safe discourages hostile actions against them, suppressing attacks or gunfire toward their direction. The ally is also affected, experiencing the same resistance if they attempt to expose themselves to danger.
The Sanctuary's radius is proportional to the rate of current outward diffusion. The smaller the Sanctuary, the stronger the suppressive effects become, scaling with the distance form the center.
Only one Sanctuary may be present at a time.
Overview
Two soldiers stranded deep in enemy territory. One silently mentally breaks and irrationally decides to act as a distraction so their close friend can escape. They are both successful but remain lost to each other, believing the other had most likely during the attempt. The one that acted as a distraction had reintegrated into the military, but with a missing identity due to data corruption. Both unlock their vestibule during the situation.
