A shield barely large enough to cover the torso or arm, the small shield must be moved around to be effective. It is otherwise similiar to the LargeShield, only lighter and thus more agile.
Improvised
This weapon does not need to be made as a dedicated weapon - it can be found or scrounged from civilian gear. Such scrounged versions are less durable than the real thing, and break on any snakeyes roll. In addition, any Disarm Stunts get a +3 modifier against such a weapon.
Of course, a purposedly crafted version of the weapon does not have these drawbacks.
Non Lethal
This weapon is not ment to kill. Anyone who fails a DeathTest because of damage from this weapon is merely knocked out one minute per point of failure.
Parry
When you do an ActiveDefense with this weapon, you get a +5 to your Dodge instead of the usual +3. This bonus only applies against Melee attacks, not against ranged combat of any kind.
Stun
An attack to unbalance and shock your target. You simultaneously do normal damage. If you manage to wound him, he loses one from his current shot unless he is immune to pain.
