A purple Backpack that can hold more than it should be able to.
This Artifact can be used as a container. It is roughly the same size as a Purple Backpack and just as difficult to conceal.
Your Purple Backpack holds 5 times what it normally could. Objects stored inside are weightless.
Living things can be stored in your Purple Backpack. They will have access to anything else inside and may attempt to break free, damaging or destroying the Purple Backpack in the process.
If your Purple Backpack 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 your 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.
Colvin takes off his necklace, and its chains seem to melt around his hand, the metal reforming and expanding into a spear. Engraved along the spear’s length are figures of legend (Siegfried, Odin, even King Arthur) hunting things down across a black expanse of sky. As he thrusts with the spear, the obsidian tip of the spear pierces through the shaft of his opponent’s weapon, breaking it into pieces that are strangely sucked, like the light around it, into the inky darkness of the spearhead.
This, spear, engraved with scenes of the Wild Hunt, was initially the channel for the powers of a former damned spirit of the hunt, captured and enchained. That being had seen many leaders of the hunt come and go through its “lifetime”. With its taking from that being’s prison, the Spear lost most of its power. It seems to be reclaiming some of its history, however, in consuming the remains of Fae beings (the Fae are intimately intertwined with the history of the hunt, after all.).
One last note: This gift used a trophy from a Contract as the object for the artifact, and that spear trophy had the quirk of being unbreakable. It is completely up to individual GM’s whether they choose to uphold this quirk or ignore it.

It is fitted out with 4 cannons and enough supplies for battle. The wheel and capstan are scorched black with a brand of flame on them. To finish off the looks it is adorned by a golden skeleton figurehead, with eyes of flame and holding a spear.

What's in my pocket? Arthur found himself asking this question when he woke up one day. Upon reaching into his pocket he found a gold coin, one side showing a skull and crossbones, the other inscribed with the words: "Cast into the sea." Hesitantly he followed the instructions. When he cast it into the sea nothing happened at first. Disappointed he was about to head back when he heard a sound echo from the sea. From the sound arose a might ship, in all its glory the Blackwyche lunged out of the sea, fitted with canons and a crew of skeletons ready to sail.

A longsword with a blade light blue like the reflection of moonlight on a lake. It’s guard looks as if it was made of pure gold. The hilt is the color of emerald with symbols and insignias that had their meaning long forgotten to time. The pommel seems to have been made out to the same material as the guard.
The tale of the sword tells ,that a king of older days sought out to create a weapon which would make him the most invincible warrior under the sun. He called upon a witch who told him to bring 10 bars of gold and 10 if the best emeralds at full moon to a mystical lake at the outskirts of the kingdom and that only a just king is worthy of holding such blade. The king brought the items there and as instructed put them in the water of the lake. He saw that the light of the moon hit the center of the lake , a women whose Beauty was not matched emerged from it with the legendary sword in hand.
The sword made the old king unstoppable he went against the wishes of the witch and started a crusade to accumulate as much land and power as he could. It was a time of the shedding of blood and the shedding of tears.
The blade was turned from its holy blue into a demonic red and the hunger for blood seemed to would have never ended. That’s why the son of the king sneaked into his chambers one night and used the forsaken sword to cut of the kings head.
The son returned the sword to the lady of the lake at full moon to wash off its sins. Once the water touched its blade, the red colour faded away and left behind the original blue colour. The lady inquired if he wanted it back but the new king knew that he was equally as unworthy as his father was to wield such divine weapon.
It was laying there barren until now!
