Crafted Artifact

Layered Longcoat

Created and held by Esther Patch.
Esther's overcoat. It's made of thick, heavy material, and surprisingly doesn't jingle very much despite everything in it. The shape is... weird, and you're not sure it should sit on a body like that.

The inside of your clothing has been lined with so many extra pockets, holsters, and bandoliers that you might *actually* be able to carry everything you want now! Isn't that exciting?


This Artifact holds 3 times what it normally could inside of it. Objects stored inside are weightless.

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

If this Artifact 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 this container appear normal and unremarkable.

  • A container of holding cannot be placed inside another created by the same Gift.
  • There is no cost to use this container.

The Redeemers Scythe

Created and held by Blair Kushu.
What seemed to be a normal kitty bracelet, cat bell collar, or perhaps something to adorn ears, but soon turning into a large nightmareish looking scythe, an eyeball could be seen between the end of the blade, and the end of the hilt.

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

VSC Circuit board

Created and held by Devonia.

The metal choker emanated a loud, attention grabbing voice when the 6ft sewn together human turned to them. he said in a intimidatingly deep tone "Where is the suitcase" as he trudged over to the guards, his knuckles crackling menacingly.


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

You may understand and communicate to Creatures and humans as if you are fluent in a relevant language.

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

  • Communing with creatures does not grant them intellect but does allow you to converse with them.
  • 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.

the last part of Devonia's history is now virtually indestructible thanks to tampering with it and researching the company from where it came from. it also seems to hum a bit whenever it's used to translate speach


This Artifact cannot be broken. If this Artifact is lost and in no one else’s possession, it finds its way back to its true owner during the next Downtime.

By default, the creator of this Artifact is its true owner. The true owner may formally bequeath this Artifact onto another person within arm’s reach, after which they are its true owner. If the true owner dies or is destroyed, their ownership ends. If this Artifact has no true owner, anyone may spend one day attuning to it to become its true owner.

This Artifact's true owner is always aware of the direction and distance to this Artifact.

If the true owner of this Artifact ever dies, it immediately disappears. At least one week later, it will appear to Must have Aspects of the Crucible and reveal its power to them. They become its new true owner.

  • If there is no available Next of Kin, it will wait two months and then appear to a random person. If multiple next of kin are appropriate, the GM will decide randomly.
  • "Cannot be broken" means that damage cannot render the Artifact's Effects unusable, nor can it cease to be used for its primary mundane purpose, if it has one.

The Choker will unclip from the back, slowly folding and shifting itself into a metal throwing axe lined with a metal grip, and a single bladed axe head with a fireman spike on the other hand


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

With all the Chaos of life, there ARE ways to identify their various forms and trails, what they leave behind from their influence and the mark that forms from it, life takes all kinds of forms,

Place the fragment of the Crucible on the ground, and focus. it shall pulse orange, linking with the various living and animate entities, and you shall see through their senses, how they perceive the world differently from yours....

You learn the following information about the area:

  • You learn where exactly creatures and people live within the area, and what sorts of creatures they are.
  • You learn how heavily trafficked the area is, what sorts of Animate beings have moved through the area and when.
The quality and specificity of information gained depends on your Outcome.

You cannot investigate the same area more than once per day.

  • 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.

Golden embers flicker off of the Crucible's piece, affected by the Apotheosis. As long as Devonia has this flickering torch, they will continue, and will embrace their own pain, for others, and for fixing what was broken

Whose Fang?

Not the knife your looking for

The knife is so well maintained that, at just the right angle, even space in front of it seem like but for moments. Splitting apart and revealing the otherside.

Edit: Good enough as is


Spend an Action or Reaction. Select a Location which is at most 75 feet away horizontally or 15 feet away vertically. If you are using this Effect as a Reaction, you must travel at least 10 feet.

You jump to the chosen location. If the landing is precarious, the GM may call for a roll to land safely. You will never take fall damage from successfully landing a jump made with this Effect.

Instead of physically passing through the air, you are teleported directly to your destination. Does not allow you to go through walls, cages, or grapples.

When you use this Effect as a Reaction to dodge, if you Exert your Mind to activate the Effect, you do not need to roll; your dodge is automatically successful.

  • If you are Encumbered, the maximum range is cut in half. If Encumbrance has reduced your total movement to 0, you cannot activate this Effect.
  • vertical jump height measures to the bottom of your feet, so your total vertical reach is at least a body length greater.
  • Rolls to land safely will generally be Athletics, but GMs may call for a different roll at their discretion if it makes sense for the specific circumstances.
  • You must be on a surface of some kind in order to activate this Effect; it cannot be activated while in mid-air.
  • You may only use this Effect once per Round of combat, regardless of any Enhancements you have taken.
  • 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.

A knife that Bu Fang maintains carefully, a chef knife that while simple, has stuck with bu Fang since his old restaurant. It's nothing special, not from heritage, from some deep adventure, just from a stall that he bought from in his teen.
Yet it grew with him, witnessed his skills, his emotions and sweats, effort poured into the blade until it decided to repay him back his efforts, becoming a knife that is specifically from Bu Fang, by Bu fang, for Bu fang.

Edit: Fine, but will see some changes with the update


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

You also gain the following effects:

  • Mjolnir: You may call your weapon back to your hand as a Quick Action if it is within 50 feet of you. Can only be used on melee weapon that you have wielded in the past hour.

  • Reminder: additional Weapon Damage granted by this Effect does not stack with any other bonus to Weapon Damage. Instead the largest bonus is used.

Edit: Knife is invulnerable, enchanted, & gains +damage to both modes thrown/melee without needing to buy them up separately.


This Artifact has been upgraded.

This Artifact receives 2 extra dice to all actions taken for its intended use. Attacking with an upgraded weapon grants +2 Weapon Damage instead of additional dice. While it is upgraded, the item cannot be destroyed.

Upgraded weapons count as any material your opponent might be particularly vulnerable to. Upgraded Armor cannot be circumvented by called shots. Upgraded Devices do not run out of fuel or energy.

  • "Destroyed" in this context means "prevented from functioning for its primary purpose", so for instance, an upgraded land mine would still explode as normal if triggered, even though it cannot be "destroyed" and a car's windows may still be broken.
  • Reminder: additional Weapon Damage granted by this Effect does not stack with any other bonus to Weapon Damage. Instead the largest bonus is used. The same is true for extra dice.
  • Extra dice from this Effect do not apply to Gift activation rolls.

Edit: Return is superior to Mjolnir & they both can stack. 2 extra points that could be used here, bought down damage in favor of the damage bonus from functional upgrade, as it applies to both thrown & melee


This Artifact can be used as a throwing knife. It is roughly the same size as a throwing knife and just as difficult to conceal.

  • Reminder: additional Weapon Damage granted by this Effect does not stack with any other bonus to Weapon Damage. Instead the largest bonus is used.

  • If you operate a locking mechanism through this Effect which has some other secondary effect (such as the ignition on a car causing the car to start) you may cause that effect as well.
