LQ84I Cybernetic Combatitive Enhancement

Created and held by Jade Arrison.
From the knee downwards, Jade's right leg has been replaced by a sleek looking cybernetic counterpart.

A concealable set of tools is hidden within, operated by a series of finger-esque appendages. The barrel of a shotgun sits on the sole of the foot, providing the same support as a shoe.

You gain the following benefits as long as you are wearing this Artifact.

You gain an additional limb that functions as a standard human arm and hand.

Each additional limb you posses can take one Quick Action per Round without incurring a -2 dice penalty to your main Action. Any Battle Scars that affect or remove your additional limb will heal in a single week.

Your extra appendage can be used to attack in exactly the same manner as a Shotgun.

Your extra appendage is not connected to your nervous or circulatory systems, and you will not take damage if it is hit by an attack or destroyed.

Your body provides you with the functionality of Lockpicking Set. If used to attack, these "tools" use the same stats as a small knife.

Your Extra Appendage counts as an object and can be hacked or targeted by any Powers that affect objects or machines. Injuries to your Extra Appendage cannot be healed by Powers that affect living things but may be repaired during Downtime.

Eternium Battery

Created and held by Edgar J. Hyde.
The Eternium Batter is a cube-shaped box that recharges itself by absorbing nascent energy in the air.

An entity that's covered in rock, the Geological Organism Load Extracting Machine, or G.O.L.E.M is a creation that's comprised of a core and nanites that hold the rocks together. Created from the Eternium Battery.

The G.O.L.E.M is made by releasing the energy into the ground or surface that the user is in, along with a stream of nanites, the same then being bound together and reshaped into the shape of the G.O.L.E.M, after which the nanites burrow deep inside of the entity to create the core, to regulate the energy levels of the being.

Expend a point of Battery and spend an Action to activate.

Summon a single G.O.L.E.M at your location. They will last for an hour, or until they are destroyed. They are controlled by the GM but will follow any commands you give. You may have at most 1 minion active at a time.

They have dog-level intelligence, and cannot communicate back to you. Any Perception checks they make are rolled with 3 dice.

ArCANis Spray Can

Created by Delphyrion Arcanis, given to Dennis Price.
Just a spray can with a colourful label. What's important is Delphyrion's addition to the contents: a rubbery substance that sprays out in a rainbow mist.

Delphyrion's spray can releases a rainbow mist that coats this artifact in a translucent, glittery purple substance that's incredibly hard to destroy. It resembles rubber (pliable and flexible) so it allows a full range of motion. As long as this artifact is in your possession, the armour spreads to you as well.

On source material:
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs has always been a classic. The shoes Flint Lockwood had seemed to be made of some elastic biopolymer adhesive that stuck to his feet until it wore off a few days later. At first he was pretty disappointed by it, but Delphyrion was interested in how Flint couldn't destroy it at all.

On applications:
It is actually quite useful as sealant for plumbing and other repairs. Actually, Delphyrion derived the substance from Flex Seal, which was used for roofs. Since it would be stationary with this usage, unlike how a person would constantly move around, it takes a while for the spray to wear off. Delphyrion has tested it out on a number of equipment and it has almost always been successful. That is, until he tried using it to fix his glassware. Those kept exploding no matter what they were used for.

On rainbow spray:
It was actually an accident that the spray ended up being rainbow-coloured; they didn't expect it to be anything like the movie, but Delphyrion's very satisfied with it. It just gives the armour a nice sheen, like the psychedelic colours on the surface of an oil spill. Also, it's gay.

On clothing:
Wear your clothes. Literally, this is not an alternative for clothing. This stuff is translucent so chances are that people can actually see what's underneath. If you're really brave (and not afraid of indecency charges) it'd generally look like you're wearing a skintight jumpsuit. Or, like, spray it on top of your clothes.

On the spray can:
It's just a regular spray can with a label on it. Also, Delphyrion's last name is Arcanis. Hence, ArCANis, get it?

Delphyrion's original artifact description:
ArCANis Spray Can - Just a spray can with a colourful label. What's important is Delphyrion's addition to the contents: a rubbery substance that sprays out in a rainbow mist.

You gain the following benefits as long as you are wearing this Artifact.

You have 4 Armor, which reduces incoming Damage. Armor from multiple sources does not stack. Called Shots may circumvent your Armor, depending on its coverage.

You may spend an Action or Reaction and Exert your Mind to double your Armor rating for one Round.

Any Injury received from Damage that was reduced by this Armor is considered Makeshift Stabilized and will not degrade further, and any Battle Scar caused by them is reduced by 1 level. You may attempt a single Proper Stabilization on such Injuries.

  • This Effect’s Armor rating cannot be increased by any other Effects.

The Confidence Trickster’s Converse

Created by Sammich Topping, looted by Jimmy O'Flannegan.
A generic pair of black knee-high Converse that’s simultaneously worn-in and pristine. It’s a lot more comfortable than it looks.

The best scheme of all is running away to live another day. These ‘regular’ pairs of Converse increase your base speed, making you appear as a blur to others as you hustle or hoof it until the problem is over.

You gain the following benefits as long as you are wearing this Artifact.

Whenever you use your Movement, after all other calculations, the distance you may travel is increased by 25 feet.

Outside of Combat, any non-Gift, non-movement Actions you attempt take drastically less time to complete, as long as your personal speed is a factor in the Action. Total time reduction is determined by the GM and capped at 90% (executing the Action takes no less than 1/10th the normal time).

  • The time reduction on non-Movement Actions applies only to the parts of actions when your personal speed is a factor,: pouring water or smoking a steak are not affected, but constructing a shelter or picking a lock would be. The GM will determine how much the total time is reduced based on how relevant personal speed is to the task.
  • Any Encumbrance penalty to your movement still applies, but you do not suffer from any sort of exhaustion.
  • Damage from a collision depends on your speed at the time, as well as what you hit. GM's discretion, but generally moving faster than a car on the freeway and hitting a dense, solid object like a wall or a tree should be lethal. Mundane armor will not apply, but any supernatural forms of protection will.

The Dragon's Lance

Created and held by Gunnar Guðmundsson.
A shard of meteoric iron in the form of a dragon scale. Expanded it forms a shaft of red energy with the scale as the spearhead

Focussing on the alloy scale in your hand lets you grow a shaft of regal red, semi-transparent energy. After throwing it, the lance disintegrates and reforms in the user's hand. No matter how inexperienced or exhausted the user may be, this weapon will still hit its mark most of the time.

Kamacite is an iron nickel alloy found only in meteorites, a fact that helped convince the iron dragon Harun to infuse this piece of metal with a piece of his soul.

This Artifact can be used as a javelin. It is roughly the same size as a javelin but can be collapsed into a Kamacite scale and concealed. Collapsing or expanding it costs a Quick Action.

Attack by rolling Kickass + Athletics, Difficulty 6. Successful attacks deal Contested Outcome +3 Weapon Damage.

You also gain the following effects:

  • Return: When you throw this weapon, you may opt to have it return to your possession at the end of the attack. Whoever threw this artifact last may use an Action to recall it from up to 100 feet away, attacking one target in its return path as they do so.
  • Virtuoso's Vessel: When using this Device for its primary purpose, you always roll a minimum of 8 dice. Excludes Effect activation rolls.

  • 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.
