To get the shield ability in the game Control, complete the main mission Directorial Override and lift the lockdown. Then, go to the maintenance sector via the elevator, find the "home safe test" collectible to start the side mission A Good Defense, and complete the training course to receive the shield power.

telepathic shields
Telekinesis shields are a fictional concept where a user creates a defensive force field using psychic energy to block attacks. In various video games and stories, these shields can range from blocking all damage at the cost of user stamina, to deflecting specific types of attacks like projectiles, to creating a temporary barrier that can be shot through. The ability is also explored in tabletop role-playing games, where it may function as an armor bonus or a defensive power that redirects damage.
Functionality in different media
Video Games:
Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden: A telekinesis shield has a 25% chance to stop bullets.
Warhammer 40k: Darktide: A psyker creates a psychic shield that blocks enemy ranged attacks, but allies and the user can still shoot through it.
BioShock: Telekinesis can be used to grab and throw objects to block enemies, and in some cases, use enemies as human shields.
Tabletop Role-Playing Games:
Dungeons & Dragons: A telekinetic shield acts as a personal, movable defense screen that turns aside attacks.
Dark Heresy: A telekinetic shield grants an armor point and can be made to vibrate at different frequencies, but it is not opaque.
Marvel Champions: A "Telekinetic Shield" card attaches to a character, forcing any damage they would take to be redirected to the shield instead, until the shield is discarded.
Comics and Stories:
Tokyo ESP: A telekinetic shield can block all attacks but drains the user's stamina. The user cannot maintain the shield when exhausted or injured.
DC Comics: Manchester Black's telekinesis can shield him from powerful attacks like Superman's heat vision.
A plasma beam shield is a theoretical or actual technology that uses ionized gas (plasma) and electromagnetic fields to create a protective barrier against various threats. Applications range from deflecting projectiles and absorbing energy in theoretical starship shields to protecting sensitive equipment from thermal damage and shielding against radiation in practical, real-world uses.
Theoretical and Sci-Fi Applications
Starship shielding: Plasma shields are often depicted in science fiction as a primary defense for spacecraft, where they can vaporize incoming objects, deflect them, or act as a refractive lens against lasers.
Energy absorption: Some concepts propose shields that convert an attacker's energy into a defensive force by immediately absorbing electromagnetic waves.
Radiation shielding: A major area of research involves using a plasma barrier of free electrons and magnetic fields to protect astronauts from harmful solar radiation.
Practical and Real-World Applications
Protective barrier: In industrial and scientific settings, a plasma shield can create a localized, high-temperature plasma field to protect a target object from thermal and chemical effects during beam treatment, such as welding or cutting.
Air decontamination: Some technologies use plasma to decontaminate air by creating a plasma region that destroys microorganisms, as seen in certain air purification systems.
Beam process stabilization: Plasma shields, often vortex-stabilized arcs, are used to engulf and protect the area of a workpiece being treated by a beam, ensuring the beam process is stable and effective.
How they work
Electromagnetic fields: Strong magnetic fields are used to confine and shape the super-hot plasma, forming a barrier.
Plasma generation: Plasma can be generated using various methods, including converging microwave beams or using lasers to create plasma channels.
Heat dissipation: Magnetic fields can help dissipate the intense heat generated by the plasma shield itself, making the system more manageable.

Try asking:What are common techniques and devices used to create telepathic shields, and how do they work?
Telepathic shields, also known as psychic shields or mental shields, are a fictional ability to create a mental barrier that protects one's mind from telepathic intrusion, manipulation, and psychic attacks. They are a common concept in science fiction, fantasy, and superhero comics.
How they work
The mechanics of telepathic shields vary widely across different fictional universes, but common explanations and techniques include:
Mental barrier creation: The user consciously or subconsciously generates a psychic shield to block or hinder the abilities of a telepath.
Active concentration: Some shields require a high degree of focus and concentration to maintain, especially when facing a powerful telepathic assault.
Subconscious defense: For some characters, particularly those with naturally strong psychic resistance, the shield is a subconscious, passive ability that requires little effort.
Mental misdirection: Techniques like filling one's mind with complex or confusing thoughts (e.g., playing a mental game of pazaak) can act as a shield.
Healing factor: In some cases, characters with a regenerative healing factor, like Marvel's Deadpool, are immune to telepathy because their constantly regenerating brain cells disrupt psychic attempts to read their minds.
Technology or artifacts: Telepathic shields can also be created using external objects, such as Magneto's helmet in Marvel Comics or the Jaded Ring in the SCP Foundation universe.
Variations and limitations
Telepathic shields are not always infallible and can have different strengths and weaknesses depending on the story:
Brute force attacks: Some powerful telepaths can use a "brute force" attack to overpower a shield by concentrating more psychic power, though this may alert the person being attacked.
Partial blocking: Depending on the strength of the shield and the attack, a telepath may only be able to block certain aspects of a mental assault, like mind-reading, but not mind control.
External shields: Powerful telepaths can sometimes create psychic shields for other people.
Physical shields: Characters like Marvel's Invisible Woman can use their physical force fields to block psychic attacks, effectively acting as an external telepathic shield.
Examples in fiction
Several characters and franchises have made use of telepathic shields:
Marvel Comics: Characters such as the telepath Emma Frost, the Invisible Woman, and the hero Deadpool have all demonstrated forms of resistance to or mastery of telepathic shielding.
X-Men: The X-Men franchise features many mutants with psychic powers, leading to the development of sophisticated telepathic defenses.
Star Wars: Both Jedi and Sith have employed "thought shields" to protect their minds from others.
Dungeons & Dragons: The roleplaying game includes "thought shields" and other psionic abilities as a form of defense.
Worldbuilding: Online communities for writers and creators often discuss how telepathic shields might work in their fictional worlds, offering various explanations and rules.
