Item ID: I-MA032

Requires Attunement

A Deva's Shield, once a vessel of celestial grace, now stands as an enigma straddling the boundary between divine protection and impending doom. Its surface gleams with an ethereal light, a whisper of the heavens' touch manifest in glistening radiance. Gilded edges frame its imposing form, a testament to the angelic hand that once wielded it in the realm of the divine.

Yet its once-pristine surface bears a faint, almost imperceptible distortion—a ripple, as if the very fabric of reality recoils from an unseen affliction. It's a flaw that escapes casual notice but whispers a foreboding tale—a flawed thread woven into an item that was once a beacon of celestial protection.

The shield's shape, divinely symmetrical, is etched with motifs that pay homage to the heavens—a portrayal of divine seraphim and radiant wings that speak of its celestial origins. Yet, amid the splendor, a subtle discord echoes—a hint of discordant shadow that clouds the perfect harmony. It's as if the shield itself bears the weight of its former owner's fate, a secret known only to those who dare to delve beyond its shimmering surface.

When called upon to protect, the Archon's Shield answers with a manifestation of its angelic roots. Its divine power cascades forth, enveloping an ally in a radiant cocoon—a manifestation of the angel's shielding embrace. The brilliance of this protective aura is as pure as its celestial ancestry, an unwavering defense against harm.

#### Celestial Protector

4 times per day, when an ally within 5ft of you is Hit by an Attack, you can spend one of your Hit Dice as part of your reaction to defend them. You and that ally swap places, as you lunge in between them and their attacker. This movement does not provoke attacks of opportunity. The enemy's attack is rerolled, this time targeting you instead of your ally. Your ally also gain temporary hit points equal to the amount rolled on the Hit Dice you spent.

This feature cannot be used if you do not have any unspent Hit Dice remaining.
