The Legendary Shield is one of four Legendary Weapons within Raphtalia's World. The current wielder is Naofumi Iwatani.
Overview
The Legendary Shield, also known as the Shield Spirit of the Legendary Weapon. The spirit is from another world prior to being summoned to another world alongside with it's chosen Candidate, the Legendary Shield is one of four Legendary Weapons present in the world of which Naofumi currently resides in. The candidates of the weapon have been given the title of Shield Hero, whom they are generally addressed as so by the locals.
The current candidate of the Legendary Shield is Naofumi Iwatani. He was selected by the Shield Spirit as a first-choice candidate, which meant prior to being summoned he had the full potential of a hero without any of the characteristic faults that backup candidates possessed when initially summoned.
Each of the Legendary weapons also has two primary vassal weapons that work in tangent with them. In the case of the Shield its two primary vassals are the Vassal Claw and the Vassal Hammer. These three weapons work in balance where the Legendary Shield would be strong against the slashing of the Vassal Claw but relatively weak against the impact damage of the Vassal Hammer[1]
Power-up Method
As a Legendary Weapon, the Legendary Shield has more than one power-up method. As of Volume 19, three of the four power-up methods are known. This consists of 1 core/passive method and 2 active power-up methods. Unlike other Legendary weapons of Raphtalia's World, the power-up methods of the Shield were hidden by an unknown force. Naofumi found these power-up methods on a tablet in Q'ten Lo.
- Sharing (core): Share the power-up methods from other legendary weapons and vassal weapons. While this works without knowing the power-up method, knowing that this is the Shield's power-up method greatly magnifies the effect of shared power-up methods.
- Trust: Trusting and being trusted leads to increased abilities.
- Energy Boost: The heroes have energy called "EP" that they draw out automatically as power from the weapons, and this is always active. Assigning this energy to skills will allow more powerful skills to be used. This power was replicated through manipulating life force in Hengen Muso.[2]
- Unknown Power-up Method: The last power-up method for the shield is unknown.

Skills
| Skill | Description | Unlocked Shield |
|---|---|---|
| Air Strike Shield | Instantly create a shield for defense anywhere within a radius of 5 meters which lasts for a duration of 15 seconds. This ability is very versatile, as it can create shields in the air that allow him and others to jump over them to reach or escape threats, it can also be used to immobilize the enemy by blocking their path with shields. The Air Strike Shield was shown in the anime to be able to be thrown at targets, knocking them off balance. | Rope Shield |

| Change Shield | Allows the user to change shields summoned by certain skills, such as Shield Prison and Air Strike Shield, to other kinds of shields. | Chimera Viper Shield |
| Iron Maiden | A cursed skill which summons a giant iron maiden that slowly descends upon the shield prison. The iron maiden is filled with violent spikes and when the door closes, it deals deadly damage and, in most cases, kills the target. | Shield of Rage/Shield of Compassion |

| Hate Reaction | A skill that lures the attention of monsters within 15 meters of the user. It can also forcibly exposes anyone that is lightly concealed by magic or skills.

During volume 22 this ability also managed to affect humans, demi-humans, and therianthropes, so apparently, the ability broadened the range of species it affects.
