+{{ rpd:images:buff_Shield.png|Shield Buff }}
+==== Description ====
+The Shield buff provides temporary damage absorption, protecting the character from a certain amount of incoming damage. The shield will absorb damage up to its capacity before disappearing.
+==== Effects ====
+  * Absorbs incoming damage up to a specific capacity
+  * Reduces the damage the character would otherwise take
+  * Once the total absorbed damage reaches the shield's capacity, the buff expires
+==== Duration ====
+  * The duration of the Shield buff varies depending on the source that applied it
+  * The effect ends when the shield's absorption capacity is fully used
+==== Sources ====
+  * Potions of Shield can grant this effect
+  * Some equipment may provide this buff under certain conditions
+  * Various spells and abilities in the game may grant shield protection
+==== Mechanics ====
+  * The shield absorbs damage before it reaches the character's health
+  * Damage exceeding the remaining shield capacity will damage the character normally
+  * The shield's remaining capacity is typically visible in the buff display
+==== Code Reference ====
+  * Implementation: [[https://github.com/NYRDS/remixed-dungeon/blob/master/RemixedDungeon/src/main/java/com/watabou/pixeldungeon/actors/buffs/Shield.java|Shield.java]]
