ok ive been thinking about this for a few days and, does ANYONE know of a character in WoT that actually USES a shield? i find it really odd but, unless i forgot someone in the books, the main charcters weapons are usually two-handed (besides perrin, and i guess rand now too. ha ha ha, ooooo.... too soon? ;D)lol

Aiel all use bucklers. Mat has the Band form a phalanx with shields and spears during the battle with the Shaido at Caemlyn. We also see a lot of soldiers with shields. Don't think we actually see the main characters use shields though.

the first rank uses large shieds, with ranks of crossbows behind, the crossbows loosen their bolts than the front rank closes their shieds, forming a wall, while the back ranks reload

The main characters are ta'veren and so maybe that is shield enough?
