Kappa Shell Style [Fighter, Tactical] Your tower shield's got your back, literally!Prerequisites: Tower Shield ProficiencyBenefit: You gain several tactical uses with a tower shield when it is placed on your back. If you take up your shoulder slot with your tower shield (as opposed to wielding it) you gain the benefits as shown below.

• Crawling Cover: Whenever you are prone, you gain cover due to your shield. If you make no attacks a round you can instead gain total cover, as if using the total cover function of a tower shield. When taking total cover you cannot take attacks of opportunity.

• Back Protection: While your tower shield is on your back, you cannot be flanked unless you are flanked by more than two directions.

• Turtle Shell: You can still use your tower shield while it is on your back. You gain half of the shield AC benefit even though you are not wielding your tower shield. If you take a -2 penalty to attack, you can gain your full shield AC benefit. You are counted as wielding the tower shield either way, and can use the shield's ability or take cover with it.
