Chester - Bunker

Created and held by Winsley Herman.
A large black briefcase. Made of real leather and stamped brass. A handle and a over-shoulder strap are available. The initials W.H are stamped into the side. The two locks on the top are made to resemble glass eyes, though it does allow the briefcase to "see" if whoever is opening it is the owner. The insides are quite spacious and padded. If the owner isn't the one to open the container the briefcase temporarily swallows the items inside and pushes up its "tounge" (the bottom of the briefcase) to resemble a normal briefcase. otherwise its just as spacious as a magical container would be.

Dimensional Messenger

Created by Viper, looted by Gideon Lockhart.

You write your message on a piece(or several pieces) of paper, then draw an intricate and elaborate spell circle on the ground, using a variety of runes and diagrams found in the book used in it's casting. Upon completion, you can use this circle to send letters through the void between worlds, and the person can send them back, without a delivery nexus of their own.

Spend an Action. Select a target any distance away from you. You must have a specific target in mind, but you require only an intuitive understanding of them, such as their name, face, or Location.

You open up a line of communication to your target, and may converse with them as long as one of you maintains Concentration

The conversation may be intercepted while in transit, and may be overheard, read, or otherwise understood by anyone near either you or the recipient. You must share a common language for your target to understand the message.

This Gift's Cost is capped at 2 and cannot be increased further.

  • Depending on the length of your message, it may take a target some time and/or effort to understand it in its entirety.
  • Receiving a message does not force a target to pay attention to you, and they can feel free to ignore your message if they choose. Depending on the flavor of your Gift, they may or may not be able to return to it and read it later on.
  • Generally you cannot communicate with Contractors who are not in a Contract with you.
  • 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.

Maxwell's Brimstone

Created and held by Maxwell Fawkes.
Maxwell's Personal Brimstone, no one is getting their hands on this.

A Plymouth Barracuda, with a glossy black sheen on the panels of the car, silver accents on the front and the tires, a raised up area for the engine, orange side lights: a true muscle car

This Artifact can be used as a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda. It is roughly the same size as a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda and just as difficult to conceal.

This 1970 Plymouth Barracuda has Racing Modifications and enhanced durability. Any roll to pilot this vehicle receives +2 dice.

You also gain the following effects:

  • Amphibious: Your vehicle may move on land as well as under water at its normal speed. If your vehicle includes an enclosed space, it will function as an airtight, pressurized cockpit.
  • Daredevil: Damage you and your passengers take from vehicle collisions is reduced by 2, and any Injuries suffered are limited to a maximum of Severity 4.
  • Drive-By: You may drive or pilot your vehicle as a Free Action, without taking any penalty on other Actions.
  • Flying Car: Your vehicle may also fly at its normal speed. Taking off takes a full Action.
  • Steady As She Goes: The motion of your vehicle never causes your passengers dice penalties, and you do not suffer dice penalties from the unsteadiness of any vehicle you are riding in.

Anyone who touches this Artifact will notice it warping their body and may drop it. If they choose to hold or use it, they immediately receive the following Battle Scar: Tinnitus. If they lose possession of this Artifact, the Battle Scar heals over the course of the next day.

Sunshine Motel Key

Created and held by Sanvita.
An ordinary looking door key, attached to a tough plastic fob which has the logo for the Sunshine Motel in Gallup.

When slotted into any normal tumbler lock of a hinged door and turned, the Key turns the door into a portal to Room 10 of the Sunshine Motel. Once the door closes again, it returns to its normal functioning.

Expend a point of Battery and spend 2 Actions. If you are at Room 10 of the Sunshine Motel in Gallup, New Mexico, you may choose a target Location which you can perceive and pinpoint in some way - through sight, GPS coordinates, etc; otherwise, your target may only be Room 10 of the Sunshine Motel in Gallup, New Mexico.

You are transported directly to the chosen Location. Anyone who is touching you as you Travel will be brought along with you. You must wait 1 full Round before activating this Effect again.

  • Traveling through a sense other than sight does not guarantee a safe landing; traveling purely by GPS to the top of a mountain which had been forecast to undergo volcanic activity, for example, may not be a wise move.
  • 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.

After Checking-In with the Key, the holder enters Room 10 of the Sunshine Motel, which exists outside of space, because it never existed at all. While time does pass normally in the Room, once the door is closed nobody outside can enter or even locate the space. Occupants are free to make use of the space, which appears as an unassuming roadside motel room. Any objects brought outside the Room will be replaced upon the next visit, assuming the door is closed between uses.

This Effect activates whenever you use the Room Check-In power. It does not require an Action or Exertion. “Your target should be intuitively based on the triggering event. This Effect cannot be used unless you have just used the Room Check-In power.

You phase out of reality for up to indefinitely. During this time, you cannot perceive or affect the outside world but may take mental and self-targeting Actions. You cannot move. Nothing can interact with you in any way.

When you phase out, you may bring up to 2 additional target in arm's reach with you. While phased out together, you may interact as if standing in an empty void that extends infinitely in all directions.

When you activate this Effect, you may limit its duration to a period of your choosing. If you are able, you may also end it as a Free Action on your initiative.

  • When triggered, the Effect activation resolves immediately after the triggering Action. It is not Reaction speed.
  • You may use your Free Movement on the Round you phase back in, but you cannot take an Action.

Crown of The Goblin Lord

Created and held by Gunko.
A bark crown lines a strange blinking crimson gemstone, like some sick pulpy heart

The strange crimson gemstone twitches and beats, the users eyes start to grow red and blood drips slowly, like a small trickling stream. The sick twisted smile engages the users lips, as the utter the words that seem to be uttered from something horrible down below. Those who are targeted by those strange words feel some sort of odd shiver, like something long forgotten, that was only now remembered. They are obliged to follow it, or pay the consequences of where this strange tongue comes from. Although this makes sense to the listener, the meaning is lost on any observers, almost as if they are hearing some strange forgotten tongue.

Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend at least one Action. Select a Sapient target within 20 feet. Your target cannot be engaged in Combat. Communicate a command to your target. Roll Charisma + Alertness at Difficulty 6. The target may resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 7.

If the contested Outcome is positive, your target will be compelled to follow your command to their best understanding of the letter and spirit of the command until they have completed it or for your Contested Outcome in hours. You cannot issue another suggestion to the target until 10 minutes after they have completed the first command or 10 minutes after a failure.

The target is unaware that they are under supernatural influence and feel they are acting of their own free will. If you fail, they realize that you were attempting to influence them supernaturally with your command.

Your command can be an order to take an immediate Action. You cannot order a target to "do nothing," and they are free to take other Actions as they fulfill your request. Your command cannot be obviously self-destructive. The Effect ends if following your command would cause a target to cross one of their Limits in a way that would necessitate a Trauma roll.

You must have some means of communicating this command to your target, but no one other than you and them will understand or perceive it.

This Effect ends if you are stunned, fall asleep, go unconscious, are incapacitated, die, or if your total Stress ever exceeds 5.

  • The target must be able to understand you and must receive your communication for the suggestion to work.
  • Allowed Commands
    • Direct Order: The target must take an immediate action (e.g. “Sit down,” "run away," or "tell me your password.")
  • In the case of a failed activation, GMs should consider how bystanders would realistically react to a potentially-outlandish accusation of mind-reading.
  • 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.
