 '''Bucklers''' are the smallest kind of [[shield]], with the least [[SH]] bonus but the least encumbrance. Most characters will receive tiny penalties from a buckler, even at 0 Shields skill. While wielding a buckler, you can [[Shields#Blocking|block]] a maximum of 2 attacks per turn. They are the only type of shield that [[Spriggan]]s can handle, but they are too small for [[Oni]] and [[Troll]]s to use.

+Shield egos are relatively rare. Of the egos, reflection and protection are the most common. You can occasionally find cold resistance and fire resistance in [[Ice cave]]s and [[Volcano]]s, respectively.
