It can turn into a wooden door.
It will always float on water, no matter how much it is weighted down. Even a fully armored paladin can tread water if they throw their arms over top of it.
Feather fall, no matter how much weight is hanging from it.
Hmm that is cool but the place the adventure is taking place is super landlocked . I’m worried he wouldn’t get to use it
It’s alive and repairs itself of damage.
If split into pieces, each piece grows into a new shield. Each shield generation more likely to break than the last.
Oh…. The idea of a living shield is cool. He could make it grow to protect more people if he gets a 12+!
If you strip a sliver off for tinder, the fire made from it will start and burn cleanly. But if any heresy is uttered nearby, it will sputter and choke the area with sickly green smoke.
It is exactly what it appears to be just the Barrows King wants his shield back.
We were groot.
A classical one: you can use it like a throwing ranged weapon, with these tags: close, near, throwing, trickshot. The shield always come back to the wielder (barred some 6- interesting GM moves).
Trickshot tag: you can Volley with INT to avoid cover, to hit behind corners etc.
I am a bit sad that no one asked where the door leads to…
Tim Franzke I figured you meant like “put it against a solid surface (like a wall), and you can pass through”
That would be cool too.
Super shield bashes :)
Not that a Paladin really needs that, giving the damage he can already cause with his shield.
It sheilds from divine power’s attention. Break your oaths freely under the shield, pal.
One or more of the following:
a) It floats in water, and can support it’s conscious wielder, head above the waves, in any weather.
b) When placed against a thin barrier, like a door or thin wall, it forms itself into a portal through it.
c) When wielded, it prevents falling damage. The user just glides to the ground.
d) It is impossible for the wielder to be knocked from his feet, and can’t accidentally drop the shield.
(I should have read the other comments first.)
