Crafted Artifact

Mending Pad

Created by Gimmlin Artstet, given to Henry “Hank” Bannon.
A durable plastic ice-pack like object, about the size of a bean bag

When the object is placed on over an injury, and overlay of their internal damage is highlighted and begins the process of repairing. The object must be held over the wound, but it is a rather painful process to heal, causing mental stress on the user.

Expend a point of Battery and spend 15 minutes. Make a Trauma roll when you activate this Effect. Choose a specific Injury on yourself that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Intellect + Medicine at Difficulty 6.

If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome, unless it had Severity 4 or higher, in which case its Severity remains the same. If you reduce its Severity to 0, the Injury is fully healed. Otherwise, it is partially healed and will heal the rest of the way at its natural rate.

This counts as a successful Makeshift Stabilization if the Injury was not already Stabilized; any Battle Scars caused by the Injury will remain.

  • Unstabilized wounds do not degenerate during treatment.

Nightwalking Shoes

Created and held by Lucian Evermore.
“Whoosh”

At first glance, they are nothing more than stylish, unassuming shoes. But hidden within them is a potent secret, revealed only to those who know where to press. A discreet button activates an ancient mechanism, causing slender, tooth-like projections to emerge, resembling the fangs of a vampire. These teeth gently anchor into the wearer’s ankles, creating a connection that feels less like an intrusion and more like a merging of beings.

As this bond takes hold, the shoes undergo a remarkable transformation. They darken to an almost supernatural black, becoming one with the shadows. The once ordinary material takes on a new texture, akin to a living creature, but without any conspicuous glow or light. This absence of luminescence is crucial, maintaining the element of stealth that is vital for a creature of the night.

Empowered by this unique connection, the wearer finds their abilities significantly heightened. The shoes facilitate effortless navigation through complex environments – slipping through crowded spaces, running assuredly in complete darkness, climbing vertical surfaces with ease, and moving undetected in the shadows. Each movement becomes a whisper in the night, silent and unseen.

However, such power is not without its limitations and risks. The shoes are sensitive to sunlight and require concentration to activate. Once their magic fades, the wearer experiences a temporary but significant reduction in their agility, a reminder of the ephemeral nature of such enchantment. Additionally, the invocation of this ancient magic is not without danger; a misalignment between wearer and artifact can result in physical harm, a testament to the balance required to wield such potent forces.

Exert your Mind and spend two Actions performing the following ritual: You Press a button on the shoes and teeth appear anround the top inject themself into the ankles securing themselves to the feet. Next Blood begins flowing through them causing them to have a black appearance with blue veins appearing in the shoes.. This Effect cannot be used unless Can not be used unless it is nighttime and the sun is down. You must maintain Concentration while activating this Effect, and it fails if you are interrupted.

  • You are able to walk on shadows at half your normal movement speed.
  • Spider Climber: You are able to climb on and cling to any surface without regard for the ordinary rules of gravity. You climb at half your normal movespeed.
  • You are able to while stealthing in the dark at your full movement speed.

Grapnel Apparatus

Created and held by Zain Robinson.
A tactical, black bracer worn around the forearm. The material houses the coiled Viper Cord with a retractable spool mechanism, and is able to be dispensed at a moment's notice from picking up electrical signals in the user's muscles.

Powered by advanced tensile wiring, the Viper Cord can extend to bend, tighten, and adjust its grip like a mechanical lasso-- commanded via smart technology synchronized with the nerves/electrical signals of the user's muscles. Though not as precise as a hand, its flexible, reactive fibers allow the user to manipulate things, reach further distances, and overall take action more fluidly.
