Dragonscale shield

A dragonscale shield, also known as a dragon shield, was a type of enchanted shield crafted from the scales of one or several dragons.
==Description==
The form and appearance of these shields varied from one creator to another. Some shields featured the scales of a single specimen, while others were composed of dragon hide adorned with scales of different hues.

Similar to their varied appearances, these shields held enchantments of different levels and offered a number of different powers or boons.
Several dragonscale shields crafted from the scales of chromatic dragons offered protection from various elements. 
A brown dragonscale shield offered the wielder protection from acid, while a blue dragonscale shield did the same for lightning and electricity.

These shields were considered to be among the best armaments available to those who took up the profession of dragon-slaying.
==Notable Dragonscale Shields==
The great smithy Darson crafted the Bulwark of the Great Dragon from the remains of an unnamed ancient wyrm.
A warlock by the name of Wormsor used the scales of three different dragons to make a shield that resembled the visage of an ancient dragon. It wound up in Amn, within the lair of the red dragon Firkraag.
