I am in a long running game right now, and through the development of plot, my character will be undergoing a drastic change. Right now my character is a level ten fighter, but after the change, my character will be more akin to Mashu Kyrielight — So using a big shield and that's it.
So my question / request is : can anyone point me at a good "Shielder" class homebrew that I can either use, or adapt with my DM to design a purely shield focused class. Or if anyone has suggestions for how to start building such a homebrew class, that would help too.
My intent is my character becomes the party's shield, defending them all against harm however they can. (So I guess some mobility would be handy there.)
I will admit that i have no idea who that character that you referenced is, but i did find a class like this like 2 years ago. I couldn't find the exact one that i found before but i did find this one;

It is by no means perfect but its a really good place to start so that you do not have to start completely from scratch?
