A Shield is the piece of armor that Link often wields alongside his sword. Link has had a shield in all Zelda games and has proven to be one of his most useful pieces of equipment, though it is sometimes not a requirement to equip or use it. In some games, such as the original, Link starts the game with a relatively weak shield which must be replaced in time; in others, even the most rudimentary shield is something which must be acquired. It is possible to lose your shield in some games. Several different shields have been introduced since The Legend of Zelda, and the most prominent is the Hylian Shield. This shield is metal and has the crest of the royal family on it.
