Armor (shield), legendary (requires attunement)
This dark iron round shield is ringed with retractable blades. While this shield is on your person, you have resistance to radiant damage. Additionally, you have advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects that originate from a celestial.
As a bonus action while wielding the shield you can cause the blades to extend or retract into the shield. While the blades are extended, the shield functions as a martial melee weapon that deals 1d8 slashing damage + your Strength modifier. If you are proficient with shields, you can add your proficiency bonus to attack rolls made with this shield. While the blades are extended, you can use the shield for two-weapon fighting, even if you are wielding another one-handed melee weapon that is not light. The shield can be thrown with a normal range of 30 feet and a long range of 90 feet. Immediately after the attack, the shield flies back to your hand.
If you start your turn within 500 feet of a hostile celestial and the blades are extended, they begin to spin rapidly. While the blades are spinning, the shield deals an additional 2d8 slashing damage to any target it hits.
If a hostile celestial of CR 10 or greater that you can see dies within 60 feet of you, you can absorb its soul into the shield as a reaction. For each soul absorbed, you gain 2d10 temporary hit points, and a permanent +1 bonus to AC while holding the shield, to a maximum of +3. The souls are released and the bonus is lost if your attunement to the shield ends.
Forged by the hunters of celestials to aid in their endless war.
