This spell allows a magic user to store one of several types of charges in a shield item. When an attacker strikes the shield, the charge will go off, harming them. There is a chance, dependent on the innate magical skill of the user, that the charge will backfire on them. Number and type of charges can be seen by identifying a charged item. Damage to the shield can be reduced by Consecrate, or eliminated by Major Ward or the appropriate elemental ward. Below are the types of charges. The stronger ones are harder to cast. A shield cannot take a charge unless it is higher level than listed.
