This Artifact grants you an extra appendage.
Used by Leo Faber, Created by kobunfan.
On Legendary Artifact Hephaestsus's Failure.
( You must wear or wield this Artifact plainly to receive these benefits.)

A wide bronze ring, able to shrink down to fit around whoever wears it. The ring has the image of a hammer impressed on the front. Pressing one's thumb against the symbol causes auditory hallucinations of a blacksmith's workshop and a quick impression of the scent of overpowering sulfur. It's made to slip over the stump of a missing arm or leg, completely bringing it back for as long as it is fitted. The bronze is much lighter and stronger than it should be.

When it is in use, the flesh seemingly regenerates, remaking the limb in perfect health, making it as much like the original limb as possible, including birthmarks and scars. The scene is like watching a time lapse film of a creature like a gecko regenerating a lost limb, starting stubby and filling in. If the limb is a leg or foot, the foot portion can become dexterous with a thought.

Hephaestus often made wondrous creations but none of them could truly help him overcome the limitations of his godly flesh. This ring was one attempt, an attempt to restore strength to his legs (the ring has a twin but it has long since been lost). However, the ring only works on missing limbs, not crippled ones. Furious, the god of fire and creation threw the rings out of his workshop, letting them roll to the foot of Mount Etna where they were retrieved at a later date by a daring Athenian merchant.

You gain the following benefits as long as you are missing a limb and you are wearing this Artifact.

You gain an additional limb that functions as a standard human arm and hand.

Each additional limb you posses can take one Quick Action per Round without incurring a -2 dice penalty to your main Action. Any Battle Scars that affect or remove your additional limb will heal in a single week.

Your extra appendage can stretch to reach an additional 30 feet.

You may turn this Effect on and off at will during its duration.

Your extra appendage is not connected to your nervous or circulatory systems, and you will not take damage if it is hit by an attack or destroyed.

  • You may stretch or retract your limbs once per Round on your Initiative.
  • You may only switch this Effect on or off once per Round on your initiative as a Free Action.
