Touchstone of Safety

The 5-foot-square touchstone grants damage reduction against ranged weapons (as the protection from arrows spell) to any single creature standing upon it. Stronghold builders often add this to key guard posts or other areas important to the defense of a stronghold.

If more than one creature attempts to use this simultaneously (for instance, if two grappling creatures stand atop it), the item grants no damage reduction.

The touchstone of safety comes in five varieties: Type I grants DR 10/+1, type II DR 10/+2, type III DR 10/+3, type IV DR 10/+4, and type V DR 10/+5.
