In addition to the noise of the bike itself, the Magic Carpet fails at being especially stealthy due to always emanating a Steppenwolf song (heavy favor to "magic carpet ride" or "Born to be Wild", but others will come up) at easily-findable volume when in motion. It most assuredly has no radio or speakers.

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.

When the whistle is blown, it will not produce any sound. Mabel will come trotting over from behind an object that could not feasibly cover her body. If there are no objects to appear from, Mabel will appear out of thin air.
Mabel is a brown horse with her mane braided together and beads intertwined. She is very affectionate to people she knows and very strong. She can carry four people but not happily.
Mabel usually isn't collapsed and lives within Buck's apartment kind of like a dog. She is collapsed when he goes out so Buck always has her around. Yes, Buck is an upstairs neighbour.

The most prominent engraving on the bracer, the nib of an old fashioned pen, raises slightly from the surface. With a flick of the wrist or finger, a shiny golden shuriken in the shape of a pen nib fires from the wearer's fingertip. Trailing behind the shuriken is a thin line of ink, which vanishes on impact along with the nib. If the wearer chooses to, they transpose along the path of the ink from where they were to where it hit, appearing to move as a thicker section of ink along the line. Even if no fingers point straight at the target, the shuriken curves in flight to hit more accurately.
The bracers have multiple engraved images, each of them deep enough through the bronze to show the titanium beneath. While made as a pair of bracers, each is a different artifact. They were made as high quality costume elements but are fully functional for defense. The engravings were originally simply images with a personal meaning, but over time more will likely become enchanted.
Each function of the bracer is manifested from the enchanter's mental visualization, and the personal energy of the wearer.
This Artifact produces ephemeral projectiles that can be used as a shuriken.

Holding her palm up, a gap in the environment expands to the size of a subway tunnel, warping the space around it, and train tracks lay themselves down in front of the tunnel. Shortly after, the Dead Line comes barreling through.
(The train pamphlet always remains when the Dead Line is expanded, merely acting as the focus for it's summoning.)

If they lose possession of this Artifact, the Trauma heals over the course of the next day.
Geneva is a very conspicuous artifact and thus needs to be moved in a more discrete way when not needed. Geneva changes form into a silver cross necklace in order to fool would-be thieves.

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.
When used as identification and scanned, the scanner will act appropriately and bring up appropriate generic information. Further searches for the identity in the computer will turn up no results. This will not open security doors on its own.
