Animated Fiendish Wing-shield of the Turkey Hydra

This amalgamation of Succubus wings, Vrock wings, and Turkey Hydra giblets created by Kevin the Barbarian is an… interesting, way to display his trophies. None the less, a man of practicality such as he finds no use in the likes of mere decorative wall dressing.

While holding this shield, 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 a bonus action, creatures attuned to this shield may use it to glide through the air. While gliding, creatures gain a fly speed of 60ft, dropping in elevation 5ft for every 30ft traveled. For every additional creature being carried by this shield, loss in elevation is doubled. If the loss in elevation becomes greater than 60ft, all gliding creatures plummet to the ground. Gliding creatures do not take fall damage.

Smoked seduction: When creatures attuned to this shield take fire damage, all enemy creatures within 20ft must succeed on a DC 12 wisdom saving throw. Creatures that fail must use their reaction to then move up to half their movement speed toward the wielder.

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, Bonus: Speed (Flying), willing creature, Utility, Warding
