A '''Restored shield''' is used during the [[Defender of Varrock]] quest. It is the actual Shield of [[Arrav]], fully restored from the [[Broken shield|two halves]] obtained from the [[Shield of Arrav]] quest.

==The Legend of Arrav==
{{main|The Legend of Arrav}}

The eldest of the [[Elders of Avarrocka]] sees a vision of the powers of the shield, and requests that Arrav seek this shield.

The shield was originally made on some other plane, as it was stated "it was clearly not of this world". It is worth noting the Stone of Jas and Bandos' Ultimatum have similar descriptions. The shield, like the Stone, has great magical powers. The one who possesses the shield has great power against all races. The shield is also able to offer protection from any magical attacks. This is the core reason why [[Zemouregal]] wished to gain possession of the shield. The Imcando refuses to give the shield when Arrav first requests it since they knew that Arrav would be unable to defeat Zemouregal in spite of being "a man of great honour and courage."

When Avarrocka is attacked by the [[mahjarrat]], Arrav is forced to return to the Imcando to seek the shield. Using The [[Sacred Forge]], The Imcando sages finds out of Avarrocka's second destruction and the arrival of the darkness from the north. They do not wish for the annihilation of their own race, and agree to give the shield to Arrav.

During his battle with the undead minions of Zemouregal, Arrav realises that he would not be able to stop Zemouregal. He throws away the shield towards a burning building, in hope that someone else might use its powers, and surrenders himself to Zemouregal. The shield is picked by the 16-year-old grandson of the elder who had seen the vision earlier.

Seeing that his attempt to obtain the shield has failed, Zemouregal kills Arrav. Zemouregal promises to bring back Arrav as an undead to serve as his general, and attack Avarrocka again.

==Shield of Arrav==
{{main|Shield of Arrav}}

The Shield of Arrav has been broken into two halves. One half has been stolen by the [[Phoenix Gang]], while the other has been stolen by the [[Black Arm Gang]]. Players work together to obtain both halves and restore the shield.

==The Defender of Varrock==
{{main|Defender of Varrock}}

[[Zemouregal]] has returned and is attacking Varrock with a massive [[zombie]] army. Players find the descendants of the people in the [[List of elders]], hoping to find one that is able to unlock the shield's power. Dimintheis turns out to be the one and uses the shield to fight off the zombie horde and save Varrock.

==Trivia==
*Interestingly enough, the item shows up as a Free-to-Play item even though it can only be obtained in a Members quest (Shows up with a silver name in inventory instead of gold name.)This is most likely a glitch, but it is possible that it is not.
*The shield's shape and colours are similar to the shield of Captain America
