Armor (shield), very rare (requires attunement)

While equipped and attuned, if you are attacked and the attack misses but the roll result is more than a 10, the attack is blocked by the shield and its effect trigger. Roll d100 and consult the following table to discover what happens.

Unless otherwise stated, if the effect causes you to cast a spell from the shield, the spell's save DC is 15. If an effect requires a target, the attacker is the target. If an effect covers an area, it starts from the shield and proceeds towards the target, placing the shield at the center of one edge of the area with you outside of it. If an effect has multiple possible subjects, the GM randomly determines which ones are affected.
