Crafted Artifact

Lv. 1 Estus Flask

Created and held by Ashen One.
Glowing Orange Liquid

A container filled with a glowing orange substance called Estus, restoring their health.

Expend a point of Battery and spend 15 minutes. Choose a specific Injury on yourself that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Brawn + Athletics at Difficulty 8.

If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome, unless it had Severity 4 or higher, in which case its Severity remains the same. 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.

  • Unstabilized wounds do not degenerate during treatment.

42-Chip

Created and held by Alexa.
A computer chip, inserted into a smart watch

Alexandra hacks with her chip.

Exert your Mind and spend 2 Actions to activate. Select a Computer within 20 feet. Can be used on Alien technology. Roll Intellect + Technology, with the Difficulty set by the GM depending on the security of the system you are hacking. Sapient targets can resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 6. The hacking roll and their defensive roll are both Difficulty 6.

If you succeed, you may issue a single command to the targeted system. This command must have a specific outcome or be a request for specific login credentials. The command you issue must be within the machine's current capabilities. For example, you cannot order a standard security camera to grow legs and walk around.

You may issue a "self-destruct" command that leaves the hacked system's hardware inoperable, even if that machine had no such functionality previously. Only works on Computers.

If your command does not require bypassing the security of the target (for example, typing on a computer that is unlocked), you do not need to Exert your Mind to activate this Effect, and activation only takes a single Action.

  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.

The chip detects other technology it can interact with in the area.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action to activate.

You automatically detect all interface-able objects within 300 feet of you for the next ten minutes. You have a clear sense of both the distance and direction towards any detected items. You get details of what each detected item is, as if you've glanced at each object.

Red Rosary Beads

Created and held by Remus Zigadenus.
A prayer necklace that does well to mimic the shape of the typical design, if not for its beads being far too squishy to be any kind of stone. The sign of the cross is enshrouded, and wrapped with tiny belts in a familiar shape.

Remus had certainly fucked it up this time: Creedence flew forwards and further into the horizon, whilst the sniper's round ripped backwards through his shoulder. He himself simply plummeted downwards, having let go of the enormous cross when his arm went limp.

He'd have to use Plan B.

The clown in cowboy getup spun rapidly through the air, righting himself so that he may land face-first towards the ground. Moments before impact, the prayer beads rapidly inflate like airbags - absorbing the impact and bouncing Remus back onto his feet before shrinking back down to their original size in the blink of an eye.

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

As long as you are conscious, you are immune to falling Damage. Additionally, you may glide as you fall, traveling 35 feet horizontally for every 10 feet you fall. While gliding, you fall at a minimum speed of 10 feet per Round.

You are subject to the following effects while gliding:

  • Evasive Maneuvers: During your turn, if you moved mostly through the air but traveled less than your Free Movement, all attacks against you are at a -2 dice penalty until your next turn.
  • Earthbound: You cannot fly or glide in an atmosphere thin enough to be unbreathable.
  • Weight-Limited: This Effect is suppressed any time you are over-encumbered.

  • Any penalties to dice or movement, including from Encumbrance, are applied as normal. If your movement is reduced to 0 due to encumbrance, you will begin to sink down to the ground.
  • You may activate this Effect while in midair, allowing you to slow and survive any free fall.

Book Of Thoth

Created and held by aaa.
Looks like a book with multiple inscryptions written on the cover

When opening this book, the pages are blank when a page is burnt.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action to activate.

You may understand and communicate to humans as if you are fluent in a relevant language for the next hour.

This also includes understanding any recorded communications from the relevant targets, including writings, scent trails, etc.

While active, you may choose to use glib tongue. When you do, anything you say (even gibberish) will be exactly what the target wants to hear. You gain no understanding of what that might be.

“If you use this Effect to spend an hour speaking with a native speaker of a human language you don't know, you may Exert your Mind and roll Intellect + Culture Difficulty 7. With Outcome 4 or higher, you permanently learn that language and accent.

  • The target of "human" refers to any target that speaks a human language.
  • When reading written communications, you get no information beyond what the writer was intending to communicate.

Conde Andromalius

Created and held by Moz Krill.
A revólver, frio ao toque e quase uniformemente negro, possui um motivo decorativo de serpentes, com filigramas complexos em tons de dourado e esmeralda.

Os disparos com a arma fazem um som agradavelmente grave, ainda que não mais baixo que o normal. O cano fumegante deixa à sua frente uma fumaça com tons vagamente caleidoscópicos de dourado e verde.

This Artifact can be used as a rifle. It is roughly the same size as a rifle but can be collapsed into anel de serpentes and concealed. Collapsing or expanding it costs a Quick Action.

Attack by rolling Dexterity + Firearms, Difficulty 6. Successful attacks deal Contested Outcome +5 Weapon Damage.

You also gain the following effects:

  • Bane: Injuries dealt to humanóides are increased by 2 Severity levels.

  • 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.
  • Rifles are +1 Difficulty to use in melee range. Sniper Rifles are +3 Difficulty to use without a tripod or in melee range. Setting up a tripod takes an Action.

The Firm's Search Warrant

Created by Bankston Battle, given to Bryan Bosch.
A regal piece of parchment with eloquent script scrolled across it. nonsensical legal jargen is scrolled all across this parchment and if read by a legal expert clearly shows a lack of care for legal norms.

The User unfurls a Search warrant from the device and clearly states that they have the authority to search the premises pointing it at the target, the paper glows slightly and the door open/closes. When a door has been sealed by this power an insignia of a howling humanoid holding a scale and sword is burnt into the door.

Spend an Action. Select a door, container, knot, or lock within arm's reach. This can be used on Alien targets.

You may lock, unlock, and/or open your target.

You can open and close doors which are already unlocked at your full range with no Exertion cost.

You may Exert your Mind and spend two Actions to seal a lock or a closed door. Sealed doors / locks cannot be destroyed, removed, or operated by mundane means. When sealing a door, you may specify a passphrase which grants access.

  • Operating some locking mechanisms through this Effect may have a secondary effect, such as a turn-key ignition on an older or cheaper car causing it to start or stop. Note that the locking mechanism itself must satisfy the standard targeting requirements (including line of sight), not just the vehicle.
  • Any mechanism that requires a key, keycard, key fob, or combination may be considered locked, at the GM's discretion. This Effect may be used on doors and containers secured with control panels or other electronic locks, but not computer security systems at large.
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.
