As for Parry... I'm thinking it might just be part of the normal series of parries (counting for the cumulative penalty for multiple parries), with maybe an additional -2 since it's a hex away and would be harder to do than a parry to protect yourself.
Interesting! For interposing a shield when doing a sacrificial dodge, one way might be to use random hit locations; if hitting the shield arm, the shield is in the way, and maybe if hitting the torso it strikes the shield on a 1-3 on a d6, or other numbers depending on the size of the shield. Or maybe roll a block with a penalty of -3 to -5, again depending on size..
