Alarmour and Lleviathan can learn the awakening perk Rare Damage Barrier, which gives them a 20% chance to activate Damage Barrier at the start of each action. Dark brownie can learn the awakening perk Sporadic Damage Barrier, which gives it a 40% chance to activate Damage Barrier at the start of each action. Abullddon, Golden girl, Masqueraider, and Mythsteed can learn the awakening perk Instant Damage Barrier, which activates Damage Barrier at the start of each battle. Spitegeist and Wulfspade are able to learn the perk as well, through Talent Blossoming and the Character Builder respectively.
