Shadow Government Override Key

Created and held by Alice Abernathy.
A small black card, the size of a standard access card. It has a small smart card chip on it. It has embossed text on it 'EMERGENCY SERVICES. ID: 527FCCD7-E9D9-4D47-B011-39BBE01CBE3D. FOR FIELD TEAM USE ONLY. UNAUTHORIZED USE STRICTLY PROHIBITED.'

The small card is held against the computer system, and the Shadow Government communicates via NFC with the secret override codes that they've ensured are installed in all technology. The card makes quiet beeps and boops, glowing some as the onboard quantum computer system generates the huge elliptic curve tables that protect the overrides.

The Shadow Government has an arms-length alliance with the Shadow Governments of other species, and allow their field teams a degree of interoperability.

Spend 2 Actions. Select a Computer within arm's reach. Can be used on Alien technology. Roll Intellect + Technology, with the Difficulty set by the GM depending on the security of the system you are hacking. Sapient targets can resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 6.

If you succeed, you may issue a single command to the targeted system. This command must have a specific outcome or be a request for specific login credentials. The command you issue must be within the machine's current capabilities. For example, you cannot order a standard security camera to grow legs and walk around.

Freedom Deliverer

Created and held by Scott Eliott.
The last thing you hear before freedom enters the chat

It's a standard looking 12 gauge remington shotgun but it plays eagle screech and "Amazing Grace" (it's just Scott making the noises himself)

This Artifact can be used as a shotgun. It is roughly the same size as a shotgun and just as difficult to conceal.

Attack by rolling Dexterity + Firearms, Difficulty 6. Successful attacks deal Contested Outcome +5 Weapon Damage.

You also gain the following effects:

  • Bane: Injuries dealt to sea creatures are increased by 2 Severity levels.
  • Infinite Ammo: This weapon never runs out of its standard ammunition.

Mending Pad

Created and held by Gimmlin Artstet.
An upgraded mending pad

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 1 minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Your target must make a Trauma roll to reap the benefits of this Effect. They may choose to Resist the Effect and not make the roll. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Intellect + Medicine at Difficulty 8.

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.
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.

Caduceus amulet

Created and held by Amanda Kultz.
A silver amulet with the caduceus staff hanging from it.

When activated the amulet glows a lime green and it allows the user to bandage the affected areas and wait a minute. After a minute the bandages can be removed and the affected areas will have been fully healed. The user can’t swear the target to an oath to uphold or the new parts will wither and fall off.

Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend a minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. You must use up a whole roll of bandages in order to activate this Effect. Select up to four Battle Scars on your target to treat.

The treated Battle Scars heals as you finish activating this Effect. If used on a Battle Scar caused by an Unstabilized Injury, that Injury is Stabilized.

You may specify a specific condition that the patient must adhere to. If they break this condition, the treatment is immediately reversed. Record this regimen as a Condition. Lasts until the end of their next Contract or 1 month for non-Contractors.

  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.
