{{{description}}}

The shield is the first symbol of the paladin, as it protects those that wield it. With a few words of power, a paladin can call upon this power to strengthen their own shield, or to grant them one if they don't have one already. Although some non-paladins have learned this spell, it is unusual.

If the target is wielding a shield, the shield transforms in appearance in a regular polygon of glowing (or pure black) force, according to the target's preference. If the target is not wielding a shield, a regular polygon of glowing (or pure black) force (according to the user's preference) forms on the arm of their choice. This shield gives a +2 shield bonus to AC. Such a shield cannot be passed on to anyone else, and if it affects an already-existing shield, giving that shield to anyone else causes it to lose these properties.

Additionally, the target gains a +2 bonus to AC and saves against any attacks or abilities coming from a user that has an opposed alignment component.

Enhanced: The target also gains energy resistance 5 against acid, cold, fire and electricity damage.

Diminished: The target does not gain the +2 bonus to AC.

Immune: No effect, although the shield still forms if the user lacks one.

Augment (+2 levels): The benefits of the shield (aside from the shield bonus to AC) granted by this spell extend to all allies within 10ft of the user.

Alternative Names: Shield of freedom, shield of slaughter, shield of tyranny, shield of virtue
