@Awru There's literally an anime called Rising of the Shield Hero that is about a guy wondering how the heck he could be a hero with a shield even though it's a support-oriented power; then he gets creative with it and finds a way.
In your case, just because you have a Support-oriented power doesn't instantly mean you can't fight, or can't be useful outside of fighting. It, again, highly depends what the shape of the shield is. So, if that's the power you're going for, start googling for shields and see how they could be used.
Spoiler! :
Anyway, yes, you could keep the shield as a magic item for example, but it still depends on what you want to do with it. You could have your shield amplify your eye-based powers; you could have your shield change shape and size depending on if you need to defend, attack or support; you could have your shield be a boomerang; you could use your shield as a transport item for other weapons; etc.
This is where your "the world of imagination should be limitless" line comes to play. We could give you ideas, but at the end of the day, this is your character concept. Surely, there aren't just elemental powers that you liked in Percy Jackson. Surely, there are books, series, animes, cartoons, tv shows, video games or heck even paintings that have interested you before. Use that to fuel your creativity.
