Osmand reaches for his neck and holds his necklace as a momento for those lost in the mines. His rage builds up and releases a white hot pickaxe from his grip in a burst of dust and grime.
This Artifact can be used as a thrusting sword. It is roughly the same size as a thrusting sword but can be collapsed into A chain necklace with a flat lump of metal with crude letters written on and concealed. Collapsing or expanding it costs a Quick Action.
Attack by rolling Dexterity + Melee, Difficulty 6. Successful attacks deal Contested Outcome +5 Weapon Damage. The target's Armor is fully effective against this damage.
You also gain the following effects:
Less so a firearm and more so a light artillery piece. Its muzzle blast is a dazzlingly bright explosion, lobbing a sizable chunk of metal at modest velocity. This brick of a hand cannon is twice as big as a contemporary handgun, and just as loud. Hearing protection and a suppressor recommended!
This gun is, quite literally, out of this world, whether that means of alien, time-travel, or inter-dimensional means. The bottomless magazine mechanism listed is arcane in nature, and the firearm feeds hulking wildcat .45 caliber cartridges. The gun is sealed (minus the ejection port and barrel) and self-cleaning.
A journal entry about the gun, written by an unknown blacksmith, and scrawled in an unknown language, notes the following improvements to the base design:
"Hellfire" portal technology for self-reloading magazine and self-cleaning mechanism. Ketsteel alloy construction for reduced weight at virtually no cost to durability. Prototype self-guided munitions (mimicking Myrrh Sov's harmonic stone core earthromancy-guiding munitions). An ergonomic grip (to replace the original design's horrid one). Cleaner sight picture. Threaded barrel to accept barrel accessories (the gods know it needs one). Expanded trigger guard to allow use of gloves.

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.

You also gain the following effects:
You gain the following benefits as long as you are wearing this Artifact.
You may move easily and without a roll in any of the following situations.
Fantasio moves his pocket watch in front of a target hypnotizing and making them fall asleep.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Living target within 30 feet. This Effect cannot be used unless They watch the movement of the pocket watch. Roll Charisma + Performance at Difficulty 6. Affected targets may resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, your target becomes drowsy for the next 3 Rounds, during which time they suffer an additional -2 dice Penalty to all Actions. At the end of their drowsiness, they fall asleep for Contested Outcome x 3 minutes.
Sleeping targets will not prematurely wake up on their own, and can only be awoken by taking Damage or nearing death from hunger, thirst, or suffocation. Drowsy targets always fall asleep, regardless of what happens while they are drowsy.
When an affected target wakes up, they remain drowsy for the next minute, and suffer a -3 dice penalty. If an affected target successfully resists being put to sleep, they will still become drowsy for the next minute, and will suffer the same penalty.
This shotgun's wooden stock shows signs of wear underneath its immaculate varnish. It is of a peculiar construction, with a thick revolving cylinder which has 6 slots set up in paired groups, so that each position lines up neatly with the weapon's twin barrels. Ordinarily, it looks like a normal - if unique - weapon, but when firing against a target weak to a particular material or object, the cylinder exhumes a puff of needles and other forest refuse as the projectiles inside are transformed into the appropriate material for its destruction. Additionally, when used by an unsteady hand, the gun shivers and moves ahead of its wielder, guiding their aim to the proper position for them.
This Artifact has been upgraded.
This Artifact receives 2 extra dice to all actions taken for its intended use. Attacking with an upgraded weapon grants +2 Weapon Damage instead of additional dice.
Upgraded weapons count as any material your opponent might be particularly vulnerable to. Upgraded Armor cannot be circumvented by called shots. Upgraded Devices do not run out of fuel or energy.
Virtuoso's Vessel: When using this Device for its primary purpose, you always roll a minimum of 8 dice. Excludes Effect activation rolls.
Caleb uses the fishhook in base form, manifesting tangling fishing wire to wrap around a target.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a target within 45 feet. This Effect cannot be used unless you are not in Offensive Form. Roll Brawn + Melee at Difficulty 6. The target may contest by Defending or Dodging.
If you succeed, your target will be pushed or pulled towards a surface within 45 feet and is restricted at that location by a physical, tangible binding. They cannot move to a new location, and, if your Contested Outcome was greater than their Brawn, they are encased and cannot take any physical Actions other than attempting to escape until they break free.
The target may spend an Action and roll Brawn or Dexterity + Athletics to attempt to break free. They must accumulate a total Outcome equal to or greater than the original Contested Outcome to escape. Damage to the binding from outside sources also contributes.
You may use this Effect as a Reaction to contest any physical Action a target is taking. Excess Outcome does not restrict the target. This interrupts Concentration.
You may end this Effect prematurely as a Free Action.
The survivalist has depended on the Bug-out Bag for so long, they've formed a powerful bond with the pack. This bond renders the pack unbreakable, and grants the survivalist an understanding of what direction it's in at all times.
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.
This Artifact's true owner is always aware of the direction and distance to this Artifact.
The Future Soldier's PSG is capable of briefly supercharging its effectiveness with a jolt of Omega Cell energy. While active, the future soldier glows with an extremely bright golden light.
While the shield is supercharged, the Future Soldier cannot move or see the outside world, but they are completely isolated from anything that occurs outside the shield.
Expend a point of Battery and spend an Action or Reaction.
You phase out of reality for up to 4 Rounds. During this time, you cannot perceive or affect the outside world or take any Actions. You cannot move. Nothing can interact with you in any way.
When you activate this Effect, you may limit its duration to a period of your choosing. If you are able, you may also end it as a Free Action on your initiative.
You leave a golden glow shaped like yourself at your location.
The spy can do up their passport to take on the appearance of any valid form of identification they may need.
This Artifact can change its appearance. When not transformed, it is roughly the same size as a passport and just as difficult to conceal.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action to activate. This Artifact changes its appearance into an Object within the category of forms of identification. 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.
The Skeleton Key slips easily into any keyhole and turns without a fuss.
Spend an Action.
You may lock, unlock, and/or open any number of doors, containers, knots, or locks within arm's reach of you. Cannot be used on Alien technology.
If you successfully operate a lock, you may choose to destroy it, rendering it inoperable.
The 255TE "Lancer" Rife fires an extremely deadly spike of plasma at its targets. It comes standard with a volume control, allowing the soldier to mute its normally fearsome lightning crack report for stealth missions. When not in use, it can collapse into a small metal disk that can fit into any utility belt.
This Artifact can be used as a rifle. It is roughly the same size as a rifle but can be collapsed into a metallic disk and concealed. Collapsing or expanding it costs a Quick Action.
Attack by rolling Dexterity + Firearms, Difficulty 6. Successful attacks deal Contested Outcome +5 Weapon Damage.
