Stand and Deliver Your money or your life!
I’ll add the description later.
This Artifact can be used as a handgun. It is roughly at least twice as large as a handgun and cannot be concealed on your person or disassembled for storage.
Attack by rolling Dexterity + Firearms, Difficulty 6. Successful attacks deal Contested Outcome +4 Weapon Damage.
You also gain the following effects:
- Keyhole: Any bullet that kills your target tumbles through their body and may strike a target in a 90 degree angle behind them. Any damage beyond that needed for the kill is applied to the secondary target.
- You may spend a Quick Action to change this firearm's base stats into those of any other basic firearm.
- 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.
- Excess keyhole damage does not reapply the weapon's damage bonus and is affected by Armor as normal. The secondary target may React to the tumbled bullet if they have a Gift which lets them do so.
- Changing this weapon's base type affects its range, Weapon Damage, concealability, and roll. Other mechanics of the chosen base firearm (such as the tripod requirement for sniper rifles) apply.
- 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.
- Rifles are +1 Difficulty to use in melee range. Sniper Rifles are +3 Difficulty to use without a tripod or in melee range. Setting up a tripod takes an Action.

OWL - The Occult Wildlife Landing
The Occult Wildlife Landing (OWL) is a nonprofit organization that advocates for the rights of supernatural creatures to live a life unmolested by humanity’s relentless spread and greed.
While OWL has become the de-facto head of the conservationist movement in the United States, many claim it’s not as innocent as it appears. A number of small, seemingly-disconnected terrorist cells wear the OWL insignia with pride. These groups– which tend to contain a disproportionate number of supernatural creatures and beings– commit high-profile acts of public violence with the intent of furthering OWL’s core objectives. In the past, they’ve blown up oil pipelines, stopped development projects, and even infected congregations of people with mutagenic viruses.
OWL denies any involvement with these so-called “OWL-inspired terrorist organizations” (or OITOs for short). However, many people conflate the two and consider OWL itself to be a terrorist organization.
One thing is for certain: when OWL sends a blast to its followers urging protest, they’re taken seriously.

The Sword of the Spirit
And take the helmet of Salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. - Ephesians 6:17
Ellis wields a mighty sword, Esperachius, forged from the very nail used to hang Jesus upon the cross. This is a blessed sword, and the Lord's will channels through it. It will never fully strike a creature not damned or tainted by a demonic presence; the wielder will find it simply too heavy to swing, and non-demonic entities will find the blade relatively dull to the touch. However, against those enemies the Lord has condemned to die, Ellis may sally forth with divine speed and smite them down with a ferocious blow.

Contain
Hold things in more than one sense of the word.
If the sack is opened by anyone other than its owner it appears to hold mundane, but uninteresting items reflecting the interests of its owner. For an antique appraiser, it would show discarded paperwork, pictures of artworks, a few measuring tools, etc.
When opened by its owner it shows the sack's true contents, which the inside seemingly stretches to accommodate.
When a living creature enters within and the sack is tied off, it is as if they are being held by an amorphous cloth on all sides with no sense of up or down.
This Artifact holds 5 times what it normally could inside of it. Objects stored inside are weightless.
Living things can be stored in this Artifact. They will have access to anything else inside but cannot break free.
If this Artifact is destroyed, things inside may get out, and it will cease to function until it is repaired.
When scanned or investigated without opening, the contents of this container appear normal and unremarkable.
If anyone other than you opens the container, it appears empty. Others can still destroy it to get at the contents.
- A container of holding cannot be placed inside another created by the same Gift.
- There is no cost to use this container.
MY FINEST SUBJECT
Did that thing just move on its own.
The Mech stands at an imposing 15 feet tall. Its frame is bulky and heavily armored, designed to withstand significant damage. The Mech’s hands are posable, with strong, articulated fingers capable of gripping and manipulating objects. The flamethrower and rifle are mounted on the arms, integrated perfectly into the design. Though the Mech is slower than other vehicles, its movements are deliberate and powerful, allowing for balance with its bulky frame. When the Mech moves on its own, it displays a degree of autonomy and intelligence. It can navigate and take actions independently, demonstrating a mix of precision and strategy.
In its collapsed state, this Artifact takes the form of a large, intricate necklace. The necklace is composed of interlocking metal segments with a sleek, modern design, featuring subtle engravings and etchings. Upon activation, the necklace begins to unfold rapidly. The interlocking segments detach and expand, pieces shifting and rotating into place with a series of precise mechanical movements. This process takes just a few seconds, accompanied by a series of clicks and whirs.
This Artifact can be used as a Mech. It is roughly the same size as a Mech but can be collapsed into A necklace and concealed. Collapsing or expanding it costs a Quick Action.

Impale
"You might feel a little pinch."
As The Passenger rips from its host, the torrent of blood pouring from the individual's wounds begins to pool and swirl around their hands and arms.
