Animated Shark Tower Shield

Made in the shape of a Great White Shark Head with an open mouth, this Tower Shield can be animated to act without hands for 1 minute intervals. 

While holding this Shield, you can take a Bonus Action to cause it to animate. The Shield leaps into the air and hovers in your space to protect you as if you were wielding it, leaving your hands free. The Shield remains animate for 1 minute, until you take a Bonus Action to end this effect, or until you die or have the Incapacitated condition, at which point the Shield falls to the ground or into your hand if you have one free.

This large shield provides more protection than a typical shield. While wielding a Tower Shield, you gain +3 to Armor Class. If you use an action to set the Tower Shield, you have Three-Quarters Cover until the start of your next turn. Additionally, your Speed becomes 0 and cannot be increased during that time.

To wield a Tower Shield, you must have a Strength of at least 15 and your Speed is reduced by 10 feet while wielding the shield.
