While holding this shield and wearing the Battery Belt, you can speak its command word as 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 animated for 1 minute, until you use a bonus action to end this effect, or until you are incapacitated or die, at which point the shield falls to the ground or into your hand if you have one free.
As you activate the shield you can choose to spend a spell slot. If you do, you can add a bonus to your AC correspondent to the spell slot's level expended. Tha maximum bonus attainable with this ability is +3, however, you can choose to use spell slot of 4th level or higher to gain that bonus.
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: Utility, Warding
