The center of Aegis is shaped like an upside-down heart with gold side edges and a black bottom edge with a small spike on it. There is a two-pronged, ornate, gold spike sprouting from either side of the bottom of the heart. These spikes have black inner edges and a small, lilac diamond on their bottom corners. A similar, wider apparatus of four spikes is connected to the top of the shield. This one shares the gold outer edges and black inner ones, but has two, larger lilac diamonds on it, one on each of the two middle spikes.

In ancient Greek culture, an {{w|Aegis}} is a collar or cape worn to signify protection by a religious figure. It is also the shield used by Zeus and Athena.

It usually protects the user from the {{ff|Petrify (Status)|Petrify}} status, or has a great bonus to Magic Defense.

When Aegis makes contact with an enemy, a purple circle with an inscribed purple prism bursts out. When it contacts a wall, yellow sparks appear, but the combo will continue if it hits after the first forward thrust.
