Absolute's Warboard

Absolute's Warboard is an uncommon Shield that allows the wearer to increase the  Armour Class of nearby branded allies.

Blood is smeared across the shield's face, exalting wielders who bear the Absolute's mark - and blighting those who don't.

Special

The wearer of this item gains:

• The Word of the Absolute: The Absolute shields her faithful and curses her enemies! Branded targets receive a +2 bonus to  Armour Class. Unbelievers get a -1d4 penalty to Attack Rolls and Saving Throws.
  •  Range: 12 m / 40 ft
  • AoE: 5 m / 17 ft (Radius)
  • Concentration: not required (as of Early Access Patch 9)
  • Recharge: Short Rest

• The Word of the Absolute applies the equivalent of File:Shield of Faith Icon 2.png Shield of Faith (without the typical Concentration requirement) to all allies in the radius who have been branded. Non-branded targets will instead be afflicted by Bane until Long Rest.
