A hulking, large, pulsating shapeless sword of pure darkness that leaks with a ravenous hunger, changing into any weapon that suits the user. It tears into the soul of those it harms, no matter how meagre or light the damage it gives, it tears into the soul, regardless of it being held within a body

You also gain the following effects:

  • Bastard: You may spend a Free Action to change this melee weapon’s base stats into those of any other basic melee weapon. Changing this weapon's base type affects its size, range, Weapon Damage, and roll.
  • Blade Breaker: If you successfully Defend against a melee attack or if an opponent is unsuccessful at Defending against your melee attack, you may break your opponent's weapon.
  • Extend-o-blade: This melee weapon may extend up to 50 feet for a single Attack, Defense, or Clash. Retracting back into its usable size is a Quick Action.
  • Shredder: If you successfully hit your target, the value of any Armor they are wearing is reduced by 2. For material armor, this penalty lasts until it is repaired. For intrinsic armor, it lasts until the end of Combat and any relevant wound is healed.

  • This Artifact cannot be disguised or morphed with other Effects like Shape-Changing object.
  • Reminder: additional Weapon Damage granted by this Effect does not stack with any other bonus to Weapon Damage. Instead the largest bonus is used.

Home Chemistry Kit

Created and held by Nikola Luisawicz.
A durable metal case filled with vials, tubing, burners, dried herbs, and more. It's designed for distilling alchemical compounds.

A selection of several plants that promote healing - like, *really* promote it - which can be blended down into a dose of thick, slightly coppery red liquid. Unfortunately, the sensation of all your bones and flesh quickly snapping back into place can be... Disquieting.

Now available with or without pulp!

(This artifact uses the Chemistry secondary skill in place of Science if the user has it.)


Expend a point of Battery and spend 15 minutes. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Your target must also Exert their Mind to activate this Effect. Your target must make a Trauma roll when you activate this Effect. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Intellect + Science (3 dice) at Difficulty 6.

If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome. If you reduce its Severity to 0, the Injury is fully healed. Otherwise, it is partially healed and will heal the rest of the way at its natural rate.

This counts as a successful Makeshift Stabilization if the Injury was not already Stabilized; any Battle Scars caused by the Injury will remain.

  • Unstabilized wounds do not degenerate during treatment.
  • 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.

Tranquility

Created and held by Vergil Arrior.
The heroes sword, and a blessing from Odessa.

A legendary technique passed down to the inheritor of the hero's sword. Giving them the ability to spin violently and create a current of spectral energy that banishes foes around them, though such violent spinning can often leave the hero rather dizzy.


Expend a point of Battery and spend an Action. The area within 25 feet of you immediately and obviously becomes imminently dangerous. Roll Charisma + Melee (9 dice) at Difficulty 6. Targets inside the radius may attempt an appropriate Reaction at GM’s discretion. Finding a physical barrier to use as cover will cut total Damage taken in half (applies after Reaction roll but before Armor).

If the Outcome is positive, your blast hits everything within 25 feet of you with Damage equal to your Outcome + 4. Armor is fully effective against this Damage. If you botched the activation roll, you will also take full Damage from the blast, otherwise it will not hurt 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.

The glittering blue fairy wing hilted blade of the champion of dreams. Vergil has finally earned enough skill to call this his own and has retrieved it from the mausoleum of heroes eternal rest. The blade glows lightly when swung, and on contact with an evil person will leave the wound glowing lightly blue to signify that the magics have done their work.

Groundsarge's Striker

Created and held by Derek Boon.
An oversized, collapsible pickaxe with sharpened blades and a rough, metal handle.

Removing a small device from the handle of the pickaxe and touching it to the target, you begin interfacing with the device in a manner similar to Dig-Dug, poking around the inner workings to achieve the desired result.


Spend 1 minute. Select a Computer within arm's reach. Does not work on Alien technology. Roll Brawn + Melee (11 dice), with the Difficulty set by the GM depending on the security of the system you are hacking. Sapient targets can resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 6.

If you succeed, you may issue a single command to the targeted system. This command must have a specific outcome or be a request for specific login credentials. The command you issue must be within the machine's current capabilities. For example, you cannot order a standard security camera to grow legs and walk around.

You may issue a "self-destruct" command that leaves the hacked system's hardware inoperable, even if that machine had no such functionality previously. Only works on Computers.

After successfully using this Effect, you may choose to add the target to your own personal "network." You may use this Effect on any target on your network at any range. You can have up to 3 targets on your network.

Pulling a small drone out of the pickaxe and wrestling it into submission, you send it out to scout the surrounding area, allowing it to scan the area and observe into localized points in the past before it returns and relays its information to you.


Spend a minute. Investigate an area with a radius of up to 100 feet At the end of your investigation, roll Brawn + Technology (6 dice) at Difficulty 6.

You learn the following information about the area:

  • You choose a specific type of event and receive a vision of the last time it occurred here.

The quality and specificity of information gained depends on your Outcome.
