The Shards were gray, 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, that protected their wearers from harm; as such, the Shards' also repelled metal.
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 musket balls, contributed to stories of Kidd' invincibility. Kidd eventually chose to hide his Shard on Oak Island, to keep it safe from 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.
Years later, the 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.
