Legendary Artifact

Oathkeeper

Created and held by Magdalene.

When the gift is used (a deal is being made or offered) the iris of this prosthetic eye grows in size while the pupil shifts into an infinity sign.

This artifact was created by Mizani, one of the 10 Celestials of Kiswahili. Also known as the Architect of Peace, Harmony, and Balance. It channels the power of karma in the universe to correct corruption, injustice, and callousness. Although anyone can obtain and use this artifact, it has unique requirements for each user. Power for power, and eye for an eye. But Magdalene lost her eye in a sacrifice, and the was no requirement place upon her.


This Effect cannot be used unless enough light to illuminate the holder's entire person. If there is even a sliver of shade from an external object obstructing light, the Effect can’t be used.

You may make an oath with a Sapient target. Communicate the oath's terms to the target, including the requirements and penalties for each participant. If all agree to the terms, you must Exert your Mind and all participants must look the holder in the eyes to seal the deal.

Record the oath as a Condition. If a party breaks the oath, the Condition ends and they suffer the oath's penalty.

When crafting your oath, you may incorporate any of the following penalties:

  • A Battle Scar up to Severe (deaf, missing limb)
  • The oath-breaker is physically marked as an oath-breaker, and any investigative effect will reveal the terms of the oath they broke.
  • A particular Trauma and a single Mind Damage
  • The oath-breaker goes unconscious for up to 24 hours
  • An Injury up to Severity-6 (cannot be reduced by any means)

The target cannot be compelled to agree via a direct threat of violence, another Effect, or another oath. If you would like to use clever wording to mislead the target, you must succeed a contested Intellect + (Culture or Influence) roll.

When crafting your oath, you may opt to enforce compliance. If you do, any participant that wishes to break the deal must take 3 Mind damage and succeed a Self-Control roll. They may attempt once per day.

The target may be at any range, but you must still be able to communicate the terms to them, and they must be able to look the holder in the eyes.

Whenever a participant breaks the oath, you are immediately made aware and may even witness the act as if standing nearby.

  • All Oaths must have at least two participants.
  • The terms and penalties of the oath do not need to be equitable and do not need to affect all parties equally.
  • A single action cannot break multiple oaths. You cannot 'stack' oath penalties by having a target sign multiple identical oaths, or similar.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.

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

All Stabilizations you attempt are considered Proper Stabilizations.

  • All stabilizations being proper stabilizations applies to stabilizations from other Effects such as Heal Wound.

Universal Identification

Created and held by Alex Scott.
A small, blank passport.

The holder holds the document in their hand, makes a slight flick as they're saying what it is, and then it is that document, just as the plot requires.


This Artifact can change its appearance. When not transformed, it is roughly the same size as a passport and just as difficult to conceal.

Spend a Quick Action to activate. This Artifact changes its appearance into a chosen Object. This lasts until you decide to end the Effect, which may be done as a Free Action.

The new object's appearance can mimic specific items (such as a particular painting, a certain person’s ID, etc), but must be of a similar size and weight to this Artifact.

The new appearance is illusory; it will hold up to scrutiny, but its composition is not altered and it gains no new functionality. Any attempt to use it for a function which it cannot perform (for instance, making bread look like a knife and then trying to stab someone) will cause the illusion to fail or allow a Perception check to see through the illusion, at the GM's discretion.

When used as identification and scanned, the scanner will act appropriately and bring up appropriate generic information. Further searches for the identity in the computer will turn up no results. This will not open security doors on its own.

  • Changing the Artifact’s appearance does not allow you to conceal its Alien nature while any of its other Effects are in use.

Alister shakes his jacket lose, as he does so tiny ghostly clockwork mice tumble out. These ghostly rodents assist the target in crafting a pice of art. As they do so Alister softly critiques and corrects the work while holding a conversation about their mental state. Afterwards alister hands the craft to the target and makes it clear they must show your heart to the world.

When its just him and the rats, he speaks to them as if his long dead friends can still hear him.

"Frikkie, amber... you there buddies."
