| Shield Ring | |
|---|---|
| Type | Defensive Magical Item |
| Fields | Handgear, Protect, Light |
| Cost | Lowest Cost C5: 10 rupees |
On its own, a Shield Ring appears as a small jewelry ring to be worn on the finger, with a silver hoop and a gem in the shape of a kite shield.
At will, the wearer of this ring can cause a sudden light to grow from the ring, forming over his hand what appears to be a semitransparent shield out of light. Despite its appearance, this shield is as heavy, sturdy, and dense as a typical steel shield. The shield is only as wide as the user's forearm, and is usually of a round shape, but can also take on a kite shape if the wearer wills it. While this shield is primarily used for martial defense, it exudes a clear white light with luminosity comparable to a torch.
Once a shield is created, the wearer can only cause it to disappear by removing the ring, or breaking the shield itself. Because of this temporary nature, the shield cannot be used for crafting purposes.
