The front of this shield is shaped in the likeness of a face. While bearing the shield, you can see that the face’s expression subtly changes, expressing various emotions.
When you attune to this shield it becomes possessed with a spirit of one of your ancestors who is dedicated to helping you in your journeys. His face can be seen on the shield and changes based on his emotions and the direction it is giving you. Also, in the event that you fall in battle, the shield will help strengthen you and aid you in your recovery.
If the shield is equipped in your hands, you receive +2 to perception, insight, and survival checks due to the subtle guidance of your ancestor. Also, if you are hit in combat and fall to 0 HP the shield gives you advantage on Death saving throws and when you pass three checks you arise with 1 HP
