Shield of Blessings and Curses

The shield of blessings and curses is a +2 light steel shield that can resize itself for whatever creature is wearing it. Whenever the creature wearing the shield is missed by a physical attack by 3 or less (the AC bonus provided by the shield), the shield has blocked the attack and a random wild magic event happens. The character rolls using the universal chart from the Wild Magic handbook. The wearer of the shield is considered the caster and the striker of the shield is considered the intended target, if such things are important to the wild magic event created.

A character may create a wild magic effect by striking the shield himself or having an ally do so intentionally.

Shield of the Vanguard

This +1 heavy steel shield has ornate heraldry painted upon it and is commonly associated with a kingdom’s military. The user’s reserve pool increases by 1.

Additionally, the user may spend a reserve point as an immediate action to gain a +4 enhancement bonus to his CMD against bull rush, reposition, and trip combat maneuvers until the beginning of their next turn.

Tough Shield (Special Ability)

A tough shield has its hardness increased by 1 and gains an additional 10 hit points.
