Crafted Artifact

The Gray Bag

Created by Allison Cooper, given to Jude Torrance.
Currently At home.
On the outside.. it's a normal bag although a different shade from the orginal it is a light gray back with a texture of kevlar, although feeling it is a different story as it feels like finest silk.

Looking on the outside the backpack seem completely normal with nothing out of place.. although that all changes when the bag is opened a dark greenish mist begins to pools inside the bag. from the opening as you peer into the bag you see a bright green eyes stare back at you.. although they seem content with just watching you. As you reach into the bag you seem to find whatever you were searching for.

For anyone else who opens the bag it seems to be an empty bag with nothing in it.

During a long night as Allison was walking down a dirt trail, on her way to drop off a package for her Job. As she was walking she decided to take a 'short-cut' through the forest to get there faster and get paid faster.

After taking the 'short-cut' through the forest she would get the feeling that she was being watched and followed, after feeling this for about five minutes she would dive into a thick bush and quickly move behind a tree and begins to sneak through the forest.

As she was sneaking through the forest looking for the person following her she would come across a large creature looking thing only visible due to the moonlight shining just right, as she was following it the creature would quickly turn around and spot her..

After being spotted she would quickly begin running through the forest between the trees, however she would hear larger steps behind her she would come to a wide clearing before turning around spotting the creature again this time turning into a dark green mist as it begins to flow into her bag taking refuge in her bag.

This Artifact can be used as a container. It is roughly the same size as a Black Backpack and just as difficult to conceal.

Your Black Backpack holds 3 times what it normally could. Objects stored inside are weightless.

Living things can be stored in your Black Backpack. They will have access to anything else inside and may attempt to break free, damaging or destroying the Black Backpack in the process.

If your Black Backpack is destroyed, things inside may get out, and it will cease to function until it is repaired.

When scanned or investigated without opening, the contents of your container appear normal and unremarkable.

If anyone other than you opens the container, it appears empty. Others can still destroy it to get at the contents.

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.

  • There is no cost to use your container.

S.I.M.P.S Radio Contact System

Created and held by Sir Doctor Bartholomule Count.
A radio like object, it has a sling so it fits like a one armed backpack. He keeps it in his medical bag and the item is a small metal radio.

These are the battle versions, they do not possess medical abilities. They are only supposed to kill any threat in the area to allow civilians to be healed by the heal troopers. Of course, I have no need for heal troopers in the field with me, though battle troopers will be extremely helpful. Their cold nature is due to the fact they only talk to their superiors, patients, and heal troopers and the creation of these soldiers. The origin of these troopers goes as follows. These fine specimen are clones, genetic clones of a former American Marine. This Marine was killed so a new donor is being located at the moment, the technology to make these troopers was a combined effort, with the genetic work being done by yours truly.

"Organizations like 'Doctors without borders' are honorable, they treat those without proper medical systems. But what about active battlefields? What doctor, can run out and fix up and save a civilian? These are not battle medics, they will not heal any soldiers without orders, they have one job. To fix any civilian casualty, and to neutralize any threat."
