Legendary Artifact

Armor of The Flaming Stag

Created and held by Edith O'Hare.
The armor is in two pieces, first a piece of fir tree bark that seems to have grown into the shape of a mask with antlers. The edges always appear to be seconds away from bursting into flames. Its only other features are two eye holes in the shape of diamonds. Second is a chest guard made of bronze that has tiny, almost invisible ancient greek inscribed on its front that tells the story of Edith's journey to Washington.

Your body becomes wreathed in protective flames whenever something tries to attack the wearer, softening the blow and cauterizing sufficiently severe wounds.

This armor used to be the mask Edith made for her hunting garb, but thanks to her adventures and dedication to her Goddess, it transformed. The armor itself is actually alive, in a way. Loyal to its owner and thirsting for adventure. When Edith dies, it will find its way into the hands of another contractor, just to help grow its legend. It has also inherited Edith's distaste for the christian church, and makes it known with the help of its owner.

Leviathan-Mech V.1

Created and held by Rob Bott Spinne.

The Mech stands at an imposing 15 feet tall. Its frame is bulky and heavily armored, designed to withstand significant damage. The Mech’s hands are posable, with strong, articulated fingers capable of gripping and manipulating objects. The flamethrower and rifle are mounted on the arms, integrated perfectly into the design. Though the Mech is slower than other vehicles, its movements are deliberate and powerful, allowing for balance with its bulky frame. When the Mech moves on its own, it displays a degree of autonomy and intelligence. It can navigate and take actions independently, demonstrating a mix of precision and strategy.

In its collapsed state, this Artifact takes the form of a large, intricate necklace. The necklace is composed of interlocking metal segments with a sleek, modern design, featuring subtle engravings and etchings. Upon activation, the necklace begins to unfold rapidly. The interlocking segments detach and expand, pieces shifting and rotating into place with a series of precise mechanical movements. This process takes just a few seconds, accompanied by a series of clicks and whirs.

When the Recycling Nano-Bots are activated, the user wears a sleek necklace with a small, pendant-like device that hums quietly, emitting a soft blue glow. The user touches the pendant, expending a point of Battery, and the glow intensifies, spreading out in a thin, shimmering wave that envelops the dead target. The process takes one minute, during which the target's body slowly animates, twitching at first, then moving with more purpose

Expend a point of Battery and spend one minute. Select a Dead target within arm's reach that has died within the last month.

Your target rises as an Animate being. The raised creature is totally mindless, with no memory of its past life or hint of its old personality. They cannot communicate. They will follow any command you speak.

The creature lasts for eight hours or until it dies again. It is revived at full health. Any Injuries it had in life are not accounted for when determining its penalties or progression towards re-death, though they may affect its ability to perform certain actions at GM's discretion.

Raised creatures have all their Abilities set to 0. Their Charisma and Intellect are set to 1, but their Dexterity, Brawn and Perception are the same as they had in life. A raised creature cannot use any Effects.
