I'm playing a Forage cleric and was wondering if you can you usage Blessing of the forage on shields?
At 1st level, you gain the ability to imbue magic into a weapon or armor. At the end of a long rest, you can touch one nonmagical object that is a suit of armor or a simple or martial weapon.
It might depend on what your DM says, under the equimpent rules of D&D Beyond it doesn't say that shields are armor, but it also doesn't say that shields aren't armor, although, they are under the armor section of equipment.
While Robby_click is correct that the question of whether shields count as armor is a bit murky, the text of Blessing of the Forge does explicitly say it has to be used on "a suit of armor or a simple or martial weapon". A shield might or might not be armor, but it's definitely not a suit of armor.
That said, definitely check with your DM. It does not seem like it would cause any problems for it to be used on a shield. I'd certainly allow it if I were DMing.
