Properties
Effect
Yet it possesses keen intelligence (INT 16) and can hear and speak, carefully judging those who approach. When handled by someone the shield deems worthy, it transforms into an elegant masterwork shield granting +4 AC. A relic lost in an ancient battle between divine powers, it retains its ability to hear and speak even when unhandled and stowed away, though it reverts to its decrepit appearance until taken up again by worthy hands.
About
This shield appears broken, weathered, withered, and discarded - a piece of battlefield refuse fit only for scrap.
