Crafted Artifact

Cryptid Hunter

Created by Lucifer Inkz, given to Lanie.
“What’s that boy a chupacabra?”

By placing this vest on dog Inkz can give it one more sense to utilize while tracking. It becomes keenly specialized at hunting down Cryptid creatures.

Expend a point of Battery and spend one minute. This Effect cannot be used unless Must Be placed on a dog to be used.

You automatically detect all Cryptid Creatures within 50 feet of you for the next hour. This includes any who come within range during the duration. You have a sense of how many valid targets are nearby, as well as their distance and direction.

If no Cryptid Creatures targets are within 50 feet of you, and then one enters range, you automatically detect it, even if this Effect is not active.

Even if there are no Cryptid Creatures within 50 feet of you, you become aware of the direction the closest one is in, as well as a rough sense of its distance from you.

Any Cryptid Creatures detected while this Effect is active are “marked”. You will continue to detect them until the Effect ends, no matter how far away they move. You will also continue to detect them after the Effect ends, so long as they remain within 50 feet of you.

All Cryptid Creatures who you can sense are equally able to sense you.

While this Effect is active, you are at -2 dice to all Actions and cannot Concentrate.

Nightmare

Created by Blake Sacks, stolen by Mike Carson.
A motorcycle from hell, salvaged by a doctor and restored by Mechanic Mike.

Yessir! This is my horse! She's been with me since the very beginning. For some reason my Nightmare here just cannot be quite! No matter what I do to the muffler, she just has to let everyone know we're here. That's ok though, makes for a great entrance.

And y'know the best part? Y'Don't have to pay for parking'! Watch this! 'Come here girl!' (claps hands twice in quickly, and it shrinks down and lands in his hands.) I can make you one too! If you got the soul of a loyal steed laying around somewhere! And it'll come in any color you want, as long as it's black.

Pick of Destiny

Created and held by Osmand "Oz" Stark.
A dark stained wooden handle holds this white hot steel in place.

Osmand reaches for his neck and holds his necklace as a momento for those lost in the mines. His rage builds up and releases a white hot pickaxe from his grip in a burst of dust and grime.

Osmand swings the pickaxe with such might that the white hot metal returns to solidity on every swing, reverting back and forth and Osmand mines through walls and creatures.
