Animated Aegis

While wielding this Shield you receive a +3 to your AC.

Total Animate Shield Charges: 4

As a Bonus Action, for every 1 Animate Shield Charges consumed, for the next minute, your Shield removes itself from its Wielder and transforms into a Barricade Shield or a Tower Shield that will defend you from most attacks. This Shield floats magically in the Air as long as its Wielder is within 10ft of it and has an AC of 15 and 1 HP. The Barricade Shield  offers 1/2 Cover up to Two allies (including you) that stay behind the Shield. The Tower Shield Offers 3/4 Cover but can only defend one ally at a time. If the Shield is hit with any type of attack, it falls motionless on to the ground, at which point it becomes a Regular Shield until another charge is used to animate it again. This Shield starts with 2 Charges. These Charges are regained at Dawn. 

In order to unlock the other Charges you must invest into the Shield by Sacrificing 1 Jewel/Gem worth 500GP or more, or, to unlock both remaining Charges you must use a Jewel/Gem worth 1000GP or more. 

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.
