No damage prevention will prevent the one point of damage that remains after Flesh of Marble's prevention is applied - Flesh of Marble's prevention is done after all other prevention effects. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

[ quoted text not captured ] On Flesh of Marble and cards that prevent X damage. First you resolve all the prevent X cards and then the FoM reduces the remaining damage to 1. For example: Omaya (may prevent one damage each combat) plays Flesh of Marble in a combat against Anvil. Anvil strikes Omaya for 4 damage. First Omaya may reduce the damage to 3 and after that FoM would reduce the damage to 1. If Omaya would like to suffer no damage she would have to prevent additional 3 damage with cards.

Mjminker expounded: [ quoted text not captured ] Flesh of Marble only prevents damage *after you have taken one point of damage" -that is one point that you did not prevent. It does not 'reduce' damage at all: it prevents it and only AFTER you have actually taken (not prevented) one point of damage.
