Dragon Shield
Evil dragons are fearful opponents, but luckily for the good races of the world every dragon carries the seeds of its own destruction. When a single dragon falls, its scales are turned into shields and armor sovereign against its own attacks. A gifted artificer can even combine scales from different dragon types to produce items that resist many forms of elemental attack. The famed Dragon Shields are of this sort, and are among the best equipment an ambitious dragonslayer can carry.

Shield of the Holy
These shields are first mentioned in ancient liturgies of Lathander, in which the Morninglord's champions bear radiant shields against an infestation of undead. The shields made their first appearance in modern times in dramatic fashion, appearing miraculously at the altars of several of the deity's temples in the Year of Smoldering Spells, 1020 DR. Since that time a number have been lost in battle, and not a few were stolen by foul creatures to prevent their use.
