Shield harness

The shield harness is a fluffy script that also allows you to carry a weapon within the straps on the shield. It is sometimes known as a "pocketed shield." This was released in 2003 at the Revel of the Anfelt by GameMaster Khaladon. It was updated on February 11, 2021 by expanding the number of tiers, customization, and functionality by GameMasters Thandiwe and Lanandriel. It is currently being sold in Bloodriven Village's Get Thee Behind Me. Tier 1 Analyze You get a strong sense that the shield can be altered by any merchant as long as the harness remains in place.
