* ''VideoGame/TheWorldEndsWithYou'' has three [[PsychicPowers Psychs]] in the form of [[PlayingWithFire fire]], [[MakingASplash water]], and [[CastingAShadow darkness.]] The fire psych protects you from foes while damaging anybody that comes near, the water psych shields you while restoring your health at the same time, and the darkness psych does both at the same time, but only when you’re in contact with the enemy at all.

* In ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'', The [[MechanicalLifeform Necron]] Artefact known as the Lightning Field uses the same technology as the race's [[LightningGun tesla weaponry]] to surround its wearer with a defensive shield of emerald lightning. Not only does this field protect the Necron from harm, but it also electrocutes any foe attacking them. The 8th Edition version of the rules represents this by giving the wearer a 4+ invulnerable save, as well as a 50% chance of causing [[UnblockableAttack mortal wounds]] against nearby enemy units.

to:

* ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'':
** [[MachineWorship Adeptus Mechanicus]] [[ShockAndAwe Electro-Priests]] are surrounded by a voltagheist field that resembles will-o-the-wisps of electromagnetic force. This high voltage electric field protects the Priest by dispersing the energy of an attack in a puff of ozone and discharges as powerful electric shocks against the Priest’s enemies.
In ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'', the 8th Edition rules, the voltagheist field gives the Electro-Priest a 5+ invulnerable save and a chance of causing [[UnblockableAttack mortal wounds]] against his enemies.

* ''WorldOfWarcraft'' has a vast number of these, and most caster classes have at least one. Although many of them, while called "armor" or "shield" don't actually protect the user, but provide different buffs.

*The favorite maneuver of any kind by John in ''Fanfic/WithStringsAttached'' is to create a water “force field” around himself (and often others as well). Besides being physically protective, it also contains air and protects against noxious smells, can be extended under water so he can carry people along with him, and (as shown in ''Fanfic/TheKeysStandAlone''), it helps lubricate his way through tight spaces.

* ''VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles'' uses three shields: Fire, Water, and Electric. The fire shield protects from [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin fire-based attacks as well as lava]], and allows you to dash forward. The water shield allows you to [[SuperNotDrowningSkills breathe]] [[BatmanCanBreatheInSpace underwater]] and has a bouncing double jump. The lightning shield allows you to magnetically attract loose rings (so no, the ones in the item boxes don't count), but not the ones you lose as a result of hitting a badnik, as well as a double jump.
** The three of them reappeared in ''VideoGame/SonicGenerations'', but only if you unlock them in the challenges.
