Magic shield

Magic Shield is a shield which has been mystically enhanced to bolster its protective properties. Such items appear in  V,  VI,  VII,  VII Part Two,  VIII and  IX as well as in  Ultima Underworld and  Ultima Underworld II.

History
The most common magical shields are enchanted kite shields, which could be found throughout Britannia during the late Age of Enlightenment and early Age of Armageddon. Such shields were often recognizable by the characteristic blue aura which surrounded the - similar to the glow which enshrouded other varieties of magic armour. While a scant number of shops dealt in such items, they were often expensive, as their manufacture frequently required either great periods of time or access to specialized materials.

In  Ultima VII and  Ultima VII Part Two, such shields have a defensive rating of 4. In  Ultima VIII, a magic shield also has a protective value of 4, albeit on a different relative scale of protectiveness.

Dupre's Shield
Prior to his journey with the Avatar to Serpent Isle, the knight Dupre had a specially crafted magic shield made on his behalf by Lord British. This shield was of a unique pattern, and its enchantment caused blows to glance lightly off of its surface. It numbered amongst the items the party lost to the teleport storms, and could be found in the possession of Luther of Monitor.

Kiran Shield
The Kiran shield was a magical shield crafted by the magician Kiran, who hid it in the Dungeon Despise. The spell woven upon this shield enhanced the bearer's magical reserves, granting them a greater capacity for spellcasting.

Mage Shield
A magic shield known as the "Mage Shield" could be found in the possession of Mariah during the last days of the Age of Armageddon.
