Hi there! I came across the Caster's Shield in UE and it didn't really explain itself. What can you do with the stored spell? Can you activate it as a standard action or something?
This +1 light wooden shield has a leather strip on the back on which a spellcaster can scribe a single spell as on a scroll. A spell so scribed requires half the normal cost in raw materials. The strip cannot accommodate spells of higher than 3rd level. The strip is reusable.
A random caster's shield has a 50% chance of having a single medium scroll spell on it. The spell is divine (01–80 on d%) or arcane (81–100). A caster's shield has a 5% arcane spell failure chance. The price of the shield is modified by the value of the scroll spell if one is currently scribed.
Thanks!

IF you are a spell caster who uses a shield and uses scrolls, it's amazingly useful. You can scribe a 3rd level or lower across that's always ready and prepped when your shield is, and it costs you half what a regular scroll costs you to make (so 1/4 the cost to buy). After two dozen spells, the shield has paid for itself.
