These organs are about the size of a fist when created, growing like fleshy tumors inside Edgar Stokes mutated body - when inserted into a Pouch Augment in a living creature, the organ takes root, transforming that Pouch into a liminal space of sorts. The Organ feeds off the nutrients of the host body, & cannot be removed without removing the original Augmentation altogether.
This Artifact can be used as a container. It is roughly the same size as a small, pulsating organ and just as difficult to conceal. Unless it is implanted in a living creature that has the Pouch Augment, this Artifact behaves as its mundane counterpart.
Your small, pulsating organ holds 12 times what it normally could. Objects stored inside are weightless.
Living things can be stored in your small, pulsating organ. They will have access to anything else inside and may attempt to break free, damaging or destroying the small, pulsating organ in the process.
If your small, pulsating organ is destroyed, things inside may get out, and it will cease to function until it is repaired.
This item is a living thing. When targeted, it counts as a Living Creature in addition to its other target types. If destroyed or abandoned for more than two days, it dies and becomes unusable.

With a flick of the wrist, and when tainted with blood, the fish hook is transformed into a harpoon with a wooden shaft, etched with symbols and verses, cracked and salt-burned lime the hull of a great ship. The harpoon, despite its age and size, glows near brilliant white at the cracks when faced with the hide of a monster to pierce.
After initiation into the Sons, Caleb was troubled with restless sleep and nightmares, all of a scene he'd only heard fanatically raved about from a capstan pulpit...the Great Hunt.
He found himself sleepwalking, gravitating towards a chamber in the old warehouse. These sleepwalks continued, all until he told his Uncle. He was delighted, and told Caleb all about the Hunt and it's purpose, and that these visions must be a gift. He was so glad, he gifted Caleb his lucky fish-hook...something that had been passed down for the last few generations.
Its secrets have...yet to be unleashed though.
This Artifact can be used as a sword / axe. It is roughly the same size as a sword / axe but can be collapsed into fishhook and concealed. Collapsing or expanding it costs a Quick Action.Unless you have a Severity-3 or higher Injury, or succeed on a coin flip in a situation of extreme danger, you cannot turn the fishhook into the harpoon. If these conditions are met, you may hear voices or whispers to put the hook in liquid, which transforms it and additional damage past +2 only applies if your hit is a successful called shot or preceded by a Super Leap for momentum, this Artifact behaves as its mundane counterpart.
Attack by rolling Brawn + Melee, Difficulty 6. Successful attacks deal Contested Outcome +4 Weapon Damage.

By default, the creator of this Artifact is its true owner. The true owner may formally bequeath this Artifact onto another person within arm’s reach, after which they are its true owner. If the true owner dies or is destroyed, their ownership ends. If this Artifact has no true owner, anyone may spend one day attuning to it to become its true owner.
A magical entity or being cannot hold or use this Artifact. They take a Severity 1 Injury each Round they touch or possess of the Artifact. It cannot be prevented or healed by any means until one day after they relinquish possession.
This Artifact's true owner is always aware of the direction and distance to this Artifact.
Caleb can use the momentum of swinging the harpoon to leap into the air great distances, potentially adding power to his strikes.
Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend an Action. Select a Location which is at most 125 feet away horizontally or 25 feet away vertically. This Effect cannot be used unless you have the hook in Offensive Form.
You jump to the chosen location. If the landing is precarious, the GM may call for a roll to land safely. You will never take fall damage from successfully landing a jump made with this Effect.
You may opt to trade your free movement for a Super Leap if you are jumping less than 50 feet or if you are closing a gap to an opponent and spend your Action on an attack.
Caleb uses the fishhook in base form, manifesting tangling fishing wire to wrap around a target.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a target within 45 feet. This Effect cannot be used unless you are not in Offensive Form. Roll Brawn + Melee at Difficulty 6. The target may contest by Defending or Dodging.
If you succeed, your target will be pushed or pulled towards a surface within 45 feet and is restricted at that location by a physical, tangible binding. They cannot move to a new location, and, if your Contested Outcome was greater than their Brawn, they are encased and cannot take any physical Actions other than attempting to escape until they break free.
The target may spend an Action and roll Brawn or Dexterity + Athletics to attempt to break free. They must accumulate a total Outcome equal to or greater than the original Contested Outcome to escape. Damage to the binding from outside sources also contributes.
You may use this Effect as a Reaction to contest any physical Action a target is taking. Excess Outcome does not restrict the target. This interrupts Concentration.
Mystery performs a short ritual with a piece of bark, and then clicks her tongue and touches her palm to a willing target. Vines slowly sprout from the target and travel to the augmented area, which they burrow into. Over the course of the next 8 hours, mystery must stay within 20 feet of the target as they are augmented with the power of the Cthae.
Exert your Mind and spend eight hours. Select a Living target within arm's reach. The target can easily Resist.
You may add one augmentation to your target. Each augmentation counts as a Battle Scar and can have exactly one of the following Effects:
The augmentations you provide are not outwardly visible nor obvious.
Mystery touches her palm to the target for one minute causing healing energy to pour into their body. Rapidly stabilizes wounds and regrows damage tissue.
Exert your Mind and spend 1 minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Your target must also Exert their Mind to activate this Effect. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Charisma + Influence at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome. 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.
If your Outcome is greater than the Severity of the Injury you were attempting to treat, you may apply any excess Outcome to other Injuries on the same patient.
