Crafted Artifact

Liam’s Band of Body and Mind Stablization

Created by David Vance, given to Liam Holloway.
Body and Mind Stabilizing Band: Synchronizes a person’s “shell”, the outline of their soul, with their body and now mind (thanks to a necromantic technique for Soul finding that seeks out a more complete version of a person’s “elemental) to keep them focused. Appears as a metal band bracelet with a human outline shaped hole in it, with a halo having been carved out around the head of the outline. A small maker’s mark on the inner rim reads, “For the fiery Liam Holloway. May your fires warm you through the coldest of tempests”

When the band made by the above ritual is worn, it occasionally (every 4 hours or so) briefly flashes a translucent outline of its wielder’s body at peak condition (this is their “elemental”, the shell or outline of their soul), and the wielder is able to focus as if they themselves were at peak condition.

The band captures a person’s elemental, the shell of a person’s soul that is left behind in its movement, according to some of the occultist Helena Blavatsky’s teachings. By briefly redisplaying this shell over the user’s form, the user can synchronize their body with their soul at a healthier time. A necromantic ritual for “soul finding” has recently allowed David to find a more complete version of a person’s elemental, allowing this technique to synchronize a previous healthier mind as well.

Thomas Edison’s Spirit Cellphone

Created and held by David Vance.
A BlackBerry cellphone with two options for calls. “Dial Up”, and “Contacts List”. The back of the phone has an artwork of a skull inside a lightbulb etched into it as some kind of company logo.

David pulls a what looks to be a BlackBerry cellphone out of his pocket, but it has an eerie design on the back of it….a skull, inside a lightbulb, whose vacant sockets seem to stare into yours. The phone puts out only static on one end, but then quietly through its speaker comes the voice of someone you know to be deceased. David speaks as if this is just a normal work conversation, hangs up the call, and puts the phone away in his bag.

(From user manual that was shipped with the phone) “Here at Spectrum S our researchers have combined the research of Thomas Edison’s spirit phone with the reliability and the durability of a modern cellphone! Putting the power to speak to the dead right in our user’s hands, Spectrum S has built you the best NecroTech spectral engineering can devise! Thomas Edison would be proud! But don’t take our word for it, call him up and take his!”
*Spectrum S is not liable for harms, damages, or unintended consequences of speech with the deceased. Thomas Edison’s Spirit Cell Phone(TM) is not warranty secured.*


Expend a point of Battery and spend an Action to activate. Select a Dead target of which you have Full true name and date of birth OR phone number.

The target can communicate in your language for the next hour.

  • 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.

If the phone would be shattered, fragments of bone within the frame pull it enough back together with a whisper (as sand falls out between the cracks) as Spectrum S's patented NecroTech does its work.

If the phone is ever lost, Spectrum S's warranty plan ships its protected item back to the client in ways that seem ubiquitous...it will soon show up unobtrusively in a suit pocket or desk drawer

Spectrum S provides warranty plans for its most esteemed customers. Using the souls bound to their tech itself to guide the items back to their bonded guide...or client.

David has more than proved himself to be worthy of a bit of VIP status among their highly select customer base.


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 this Artifact has no living true owner, anyone may spend one day attuning to it to become its true owner.

If the true owner of this Artifact ever dies, it immediately disappears. At least one week later, it will appear to A personal friend of the previous owner (randomly determined among them—such is the nature of a warranty plan) 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.

Paragon Suit

Created and held by Alan Hawkins.
A set of equipment belonging to the retired hero, The Paragon. Comprised of a white suit of armor, a billowing blue cape, and various crime-fighting gadgets, the whole ensemble resembles that of a classic comic book superhero. Its white, animated eyes change size and shape based on the user's expression.

The user manifests the barrier between the physical and fictional world by calling upon their personal character. The ink from the cartridges surround the user's target, which then make the target appear to be cell shaded-- with the strength of the shading depending on the strength of the barrier.


Spend an Action. Select a Animate target within arm's reach. Roll Charisma + Influence at Difficulty 6.

If you succeed, you create a barrier around your target, which absorbs the next Outcome +4 Damage. The Damage reduction from the barrier is applied before Armor. This Artifact may only have 1 active barrier at a time.

The barrier will fall after two hours, or if it absorbs the full amount of Damage. When a barrier falls, you cannot use this Effect again for a minimum of 2 Rounds.

This Gift cannot have more than 3 Drawbacks, and its Gift Cost is capped at 1.

  • Effects which circumvent Armor completely also circumvent your barrier.
  • 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.

The user holds onto their cape and channels their spirit through it, allowing them to fly through the air like many iconic superheroes. As they fly at higher speeds, motion lines and an occasional 'whoosh' may trace behind them to indicate their trajectory.


Exert your Mind (unless you are in a major metropoliton area) and spend two Actions performing the following ritual: mage ritual. You must use up a cartridge of ink in order to activate this Effect. You must maintain Concentration while activating this Effect, and it fails if you are interrupted. This Effect remains active for two hours.

As long as you are conscious, you are immune to falling Damage and may hover in place mid-air. 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 may ascend into the air and fly using your mind. Your Free Movement is Mind x5 feet/Round, including vertically. You cannot Dash. When sprinting, roll Mind and add your rating in Mind plus 1 to the outcome, multiply by 5 to find your sprint speed. Your encumbrance limit is 10 lbs per point of Mind.

You are subject to the following effects while gliding or flying:

  • Earthbound: You cannot fly or glide in an atmosphere thin enough to be unbreathable.
  • Commercial Flight: This Effect is suppressed any time you are over-encumbered. However, you may carry up to 3 passengers without increasing your Encumbrance. Any passengers must maintain physical contact with you or another passenger, or they will fall.

  • 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.

The Paragon super-suit is no ordinary set of armor. Imbued by the forces of heroism and morality themselves, the suit is capable of protecting against an additional layer of harm, as well as remaining indestructible now matter what harm falls upon it.


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.

If this Artifact is in no one else’s possession, its true owner may Exert their Mind and spend two Actions to bring it to themselves.

  • "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 user can understand and be understood by any being thanks to the suit's ability to translate. As they speak, their message is transcribed through a speech bubble that appears next to them in an inky, comic book style, where their words are also dubbed over in the event they cannot be read. On their end, any messages they receive can be understood through a series of text bubbles that they can only see.


Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend an Action. You must use up a cartridge of ink in order to activate this Effect.

You may understand and communicate to Creatures, humans, and Sapient beings 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.

  • 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.

Created by Sonny Raies, given to Seok-ju.
