The Shards projected an electromagnetic field, that protected their wearers from harm; as such, the Shards' also repelled metal.<br /> <br /> 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' invincibility. Kidd eventually chose to hide his Shard on [[Oak Island]], to keep it safe from [[Templars|Templar]] forces that sought it out. 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.<br /> <br /> 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.<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> *Exposure to the [[Animus]] transferred the effects of the Shard to [[Desmond Miles]].<br /> *After Ratonhnhake:ton gains the shard form oak island, it grants limited protection from musket fire.<br /> <br /> ==Reference==<br /> *''[[Assassin's Creed III]]''<br /> {{PoE}}<br /> {{AC3}}<br /> [[Category:Pieces of Eden]]<br /> [[Category:First Civilization technology]]</div>
