Notes:
Wondrous item, very rare (requires attunement)
This shield is made from the scale of an ancient white dragon. It has a rune burned into its outward-facing side. A character who examines the rune and succeeds on a DC20 Intelligence (History) check recognizes it as an uven(“en emy” in Giant) rune that confers great power.
While holding the shield, you benefit from the following properties.
**Winter’s Friend**. You are immune to cold damage.
**Deadly Rebuke**. Immediately after a creature hits you a melee attack, you can use your reaction to deal 3d6 necrotic damage to that creature.
**Bane**. You can cast the bane spell from the shield (save DC 17). The spell does not require concentration and lasts for 1 minute. Once you cast the spell from the shield, you can’t do so again until you finish a short or long rest.
**Gift of Vengeance.** You can transfer the shield’s magic to a nonmagical weapon by tracing the uven rune on the weapon with one finger. The transfer takes 8 hours of work that requires the two items to be within 5 feet of each other. At the end, the shield is destroyed, and the rune is etched or burned into the chosen weapon. This weapon becomes a rare magic item that requires attunement. It has the properties of a +1 weapon. The bonus increases to +3 when the weapon is used against one of the following creature types, chosen by you at the time of the magic weapon’s creation: aberrations, celestials, constructs, dragons, elementals, fey, fiends, giants, or undead.
