Sure, I’ve been tinkering with a lattice that mimics a dihedral quartz surface. Think a honeycomb of tiny, perfectly flat facets arranged at a 30‑degree angle to the main plane. When a beam hits, it scatters in a tight fan of light—almost like a kaleidoscope but focused. The gaps are just wide enough to let the block material hold shape, so you still get protection. The trick is keeping every facet exactly the same size; even a millimeter variation throws off the glare. If you can polish them to a mirror finish, the shield will both deflect blows and flash enough light to blind an opponent. Just remember to finish the edges with a slight bevel, or the light will leak and the pattern will blur.
