Celes with shell (GBA).
Shell (シェル, Sheru?) is a status in Final Fantasy VI. A character with the Shell status will have magical damage reduced by approximately ⅓, except for defense-ignoring attacks. It does not persist after battle. Those with shell display a green outline in battle.
Due to a bug, if the Force Shield is equipped mid-battle, instead of granting shell, it will instead give immunity to shell.
