Shield of Not-so-Great Shielding

Every apprentice shieldsmith has to start somewhere. Even the quickest study can't expect to produce a Shield of Significance on the first go-round. A master shieldsmith hones his craft after many years of making small refinements to his shields, and this process cannot be hurried. This shield was produced by just such an inexperienced craftsman. Although it certainly isn't a work of art, perhaps he will improve as the years wear on.
