Description
A round steel shield faced with hammered silver and ringed by a band of inscribed glyphs that ripple like reflections on a pond. While holding it, you have advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects, and spell attacks have disadvantage against you. The shield grows faintly warm when targeted by hostile magic, and the glyphs around its rim shift like spinning text. It was forged for guardians of arcane libraries who needed to walk through the working spaces of careless mages without being annihilated by stray castings.
