Summon Bitches Callin' my Bitches

2
This Artifact allows you to summon a minion which can fight and act on your behalf.
Used by Ppimperton (Devontae Hanson), Created by dalordetrius.
On Signature Item Pimp-Cane of Hopeless Souls.
(When activating this Effect, it is obvious that you are creating a minion in some way. You must actively and obviously be using up Money. You must use this Artifact obviously when activating this Effect.)

Ppimperton gives a tap of his Pimp-Cane or a snap of his fingers, and he concentrates a moment. He names which Bitch he wishes to summon, and then with a growl he reminds her aloud that he *owns* her and threatens/cajoles/something her. She obediently steps out from behind him, appearing from within his shadow.
Alternatively, he might concentrate a few moments before tossing a roll of cash off toward a corner, and the hand of one of his Bitches pops out of a shadow to catch the money. Ppimperton then demands she get her ass out here, and she pulls the rest of her body out of the shadow.

Bitches have the following equipment:
* Extremely revealing clothing and hugely impractical shoes that don't hinder them at all
* Kevlar-reinforced fur long-coat
* Pistol with extra mags
* Switchblade for cuttin' Jive Tricks
* Personal amount of cocaine
* Smartphone
* Smartwatch
* Skye: Suitcase/Backpack with Various Survival Gear: Poptent, water filtration equipment, rations, canteen, survival knife, basic fishing gear, etc.

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

Whenever you show this Artifact to someone, you may give a general description of an Object within the category of forms of identification, and anyone who hears the description and sees the Artifact will have their mind fill in the details to complete the illusion.

The way the Artifact is seen 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.

This Artifact can be used as a blimp. It is roughly the same size as a blimp but can be collapsed into a phone-sized canvas cube and concealed. Collapsing or expanding it costs a Quick Action.

This blimp has full science laboratory, bullet-proof envelope, and ample parachutes. Any roll to pilot this vehicle receives +2 dice.

You also gain the following effects:

  • Crew of One: You alone may stand in for an entire crew if the vehicle would normally be piloted by more than one.
  • Mind of its Own: This vehicle can move and take Actions without you driving it. It has seven dice for all Drive rolls.
  • No Muffler: Any stealth rolls made to hide your vehicle automatically fail, and any rolls made to notice your vehicle automatically succeed.

  • If there is not enough free space to expand the object, it cannot be expanded. You cannot expand this Object as an attack.

This Artifact can be used as a container. It is roughly the same size as a 80 liter backpacking pack and just as difficult to conceal.

Your 80 liter backpacking pack holds 5 times what it normally could. Objects stored inside are weightless.

Living things can be stored in your 80 liter backpacking pack. They will have access to anything else inside and may attempt to break free, damaging or destroying the 80 liter backpacking pack in the process.

If your 80 liter backpacking pack is destroyed, things inside may get out, and it will cease to function until it is repaired.

Only you may open and close the container. Others can still destroy it to get at the contents

  • There is no cost to use your container.

This Effect activates whenever combat begins. It does not require an Action or Exertion.

You automatically detect all people wielding weapons within 300 feet of you for the next hour. This includes any who come within range during the duration. You have a sense of how many valid targets are nearby, as well as their distance and direction.

  • When triggered, the Effect activation resolves immediately after the triggering Action. It is not Reaction speed.

This Artifact can be used as a bow. It is roughly at least twice as large as a bow and cannot be concealed on your person or disassembled for storage.

You also gain the following effects:

  • Infinite Ammo: This weapon never runs out of its standard ammunition.
  • Leave No Trace: Your projectiles crumble or vanish after impact, leaving no meaningful trace of your assault beyond the wounds they leave. If your attack would kill or incapacitate your target, they make no sound, even incidentally, for the next Round.
