This wooden shield functions as a normal shield, but it is more frail. If you take more than 30 points of damage on a single attack, the shield is destroyed. The shield is vulnerable to fire damage, and if you take more than 15 points of fire damage on a single attack, the shield is also destroyed. 

Shields require the Utilize action to Don or Doff. You gain the Armor Class benefit of a Shield only if you have training with it.
