While holding this shield, you have a +3 bonus to AC. This bonus is in addition to the shield's normal bonus to AC.

As a reaction, the wielder can interpose the shield between them and a magical effect, reducing the incoming damage by half. While this effect takes place, a faint magical ward is seen on the face of the shield and an aura of magic surrounds it.

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.

Notes: Bonus: Armor Class, Combat, Warding
