Dreamshield

Dreamshield is a Charm in Hollow Knight. It conjures a shield around the Knight that can block projectiles and deals 1x Nail damage when it hits an enemy.

Usefulness
Whenever the shield touches an enemy, the shield will break and take time to reform. Attacking with the Nail will cause the shield to bash outward. Focusing will cause the Shield to rotate even faster in a smaller radius and accelerates the shield recovery.

How to Acquire
Found in a room in Resting Grounds, below the Seer's room.

Projectiles
Dreamshield will only block some projectiles. Blocked projectiles vanish when hitting the shield. Piercing projectiles are unaffected by the shield.

Trivia

 * The pedestal where the charm is found can be hit with the Dream Nail. The dialogue reads:
 * "Protect yourself... You are our last..." 
 * This, combined with the charm description, implies that the moth tribe intended to give this charm to the Seer as they were dying out.


 * Markoth, who is a moth, wields a similar ability to the Dreamshield.
 * The Dreamshield temporarily disappears when interacting with NPC dialogue.
 * The Dreamshield can damage Crystal Crawlers.
 * A tink sound is played whenever the Dreamshield passes over a piece of Geo.
