The '''Shards of Eden''' were teal, ring-like [[Pieces of Eden]], which were invented by the [[First Civilization]] to serve as personal shields for their wearers. The Shards projected an electromagnetic field which protected their wearers from projectile damage, such as energy weapons as well as conventional weapons.

At some point, a Shard came into the possession of the renowned privateer [[William Kidd]], and its ability to deflect metal or, more specifically, metal [[Firearms|musket balls]], contributed to stories of Kidd's invincibility. Kidd eventually chose to hide his Shard on [[Oak Island]], to keep it safe from [[Templars|Templar]] forces who sought it. To this end, Kidd created a map that provided clues to the Shard's location, and divided it among four of his former crew members.

Years later, the [[Assassins|Assassin]] [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]] managed to gather the four pieces of the map and, together with [[Robert Faulkner]], the pair travelled to Oak Island to obtain the Shard.

==Trivia==
*Exposure to the [[Animus]] transferred the effects of the Shard to [[Desmond Miles]].
*The shard that <span style="color:rgb(255,255,255);font-size:12px;line-height:21px;text-align:center;">Ratonhnhaké:ton retrieved sometimes works because of thousands of years with out proper maintenence.</span>
