This Artifact cannot be broken.

If this Artifact is lost and in no oneโ€™s possession, it finds its way back to its creator during the next Downtime.

This Artifact's creator is always aware of the direction and distance to this Artifact.

Anyone who touches this Artifact will notice it warping their mind and may drop it. If they choose to hold or use it, they immediately receive the following Trauma: Red Desire: If someone takes an injury, Roll self control, If failed you must check their injury and attempt or request any amount of their blood. If they lose possession of this Artifact, the Trauma heals over the course of the next day.

  • "Cannot be broken" means that damage cannot render the Artifact's Effects unusable, nor can it cease to be used for its primary mundane purpose, if it has one.
