Crafted Artifact

Spring Into Action

Created and held by Bryan Bosch.
An innovative origami spring folded from a single sheet of paper. Intricate designs span across each segment of the spring, metal lining the edges and branching into spiraling patterns. When extended, the spring unfolds into the form of an elegant dueling sword, which has the ability to extend even further for a ranged attack. Signed in the center of the spring / blade are the initials, "bb."

When collapsed, the sword appears to be a spiral, origami spring with metal designs spanning across each segment. The user can expand the blade through extending the spring, which then unfolds into the shape of an elegant sword. Its craft grants it the potency to pierce through any defense.


This Artifact can be used as a thrusting sword. It is roughly the same size as a thrusting sword but can be collapsed into an origami spring and concealed. Collapsing or expanding it costs a Quick Action.

Attack by rolling Dexterity + Melee, Difficulty 6. Successful attacks deal Contested Outcome +2 Weapon Damage.

You also gain the following effects:

  • Extend-o-blade: This melee weapon may extend up to 50 feet for a single Attack, Defense, or Clash. Retracting back into its usable size is a Quick Action.

  • If there is not enough free space to expand the object, it cannot be expanded. You cannot expand this Object as an attack.
  • Reminder: additional Weapon Damage granted by this Effect does not stack with any other bonus to Weapon Damage. Instead the largest bonus is used.

Sturdy bat

Created and held by Isaac.
Your trusty baseball bat, been with you for as long as you can remember

Isaac tosses a baseball up into the air before smacking it with with his bat, sending it flying towards his target, with the damage delt popping up before vanishing. If the attack does no damage or the roll is botched, the attack still hits visually but instead of damage, "missed" pops up.

One-sided Iron Axe

Created by Quinn Dyer, looted by Douglas Edwards.
A standard lumberjack axe that seems to glow ever so slightly. The handle is made from a dark wood and has a leather strip wrapped around its base for grip.

When Quinn uses their axe, it shoots out with mechanical whirring. The handle now has obvious sections where the axe can collapse back into its original state. When extended, the axe is fairly bendy, looking almost comical when used. When Quinn pins with their axe, the yellow glow surrounding the axe increases in strength.


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

Gauss Pistol

Created and held by Dr Tora.
A pistol with a similar design to a luger pistol thanks to inspiration from a previous foe, sporting a a barrel similar to a tesla coil

Chambered in 45 ACP, the Gauss pistol uses electromagnetic pulses to fire the entire bullet at higher velocities than normal pistol rounds, giving it more penetration power, and more devastating wounds that can be dealt silently thanks to the electromagnetic systems not needing to cause explosions, instead using magnetism to it's advantage

Chain of Azazel

Created and held by Liv.
A chain of black. It feels warm to the touch

The artifact holds at least one demon bound to obey the commands and will of the wielder and advance their interests. When used a demon wearing a human form crawl's its way out of the object, and leaps out, looking for enemies.

The demon in this iteration looks like a beautiful human with dark eyes, black hair, and dark nail polish. When not attempting to hide it, they trail little bits of shadowy smoke, and bend shadows and light around them oddly. They have thin leathery wings that peel out from their back when they take flight. When firing at range, claws from their hand break off becoming needle like knives in the air.

The demon can speak, reporting on anything it sees, and apply a level of intelligence to understanding the world around it. It will die defending anyone it is ordered to defend.

The summoner can cause the servant to return to its bound artifact at any time.

This artifact is made by summoning a demon, making a deal with it, and binding it to the object in a long ritual.
