Avkuh

Though a rare sight for several generations, a Haerkuh Je'ak shield wall is not to go unnoticed on the battlefield. The avkuh are halfway between a small shield and a buckler, large enough to provide effective cover and small enough to maneuver to the back to swap between various forms of the Majokuh. Made of mithril or orichalcum, the shields are lightweight for their size, and finely balanced.
To be sure, uplifting beside you and daunting in front.
~Grandmaster Jeren, of the Gold Tower.

Mechanics & Inner Workings

The back of the shield has several dull hooks and straps to facilitate easy transfers of position from the arm to the back as required.

Armor Very Rare

Avkuh shields are round or round-ish shields halfway between small shields and bucklers. They are made of mithral alloys and were finely crafted in the days of the Grimhii Empire. Like the Majokuh with which they are paired, they are decorated with personalized designs meaningful to the original Haerkuh Je'ak.
The rear of the shield has hooks and straps to make it easier to transfer from the arm to the back or belt as required by the wielder.
