An imposing, long, strong rifle. It is made strictly out of a copperish metal, with some notes of black polish here and there. It is covered in watches, alluding to the perfect timing of a revolution; not too patient, not too aggresive, but the right balance betweeen the both of them.
This Artifact can be used as a heavy sniper rifle. It is roughly the same size as a heavy sniper rifle and just as difficult to conceal.
Attack by rolling Dexterity + Firearms, Difficulty 6. Successful attacks deal Contested Outcome +5 Weapon Damage.
You also gain the following effects:
Eight runes are scratched into the metal surface of these containers on the outside corners, and eight on the inside. When activated, a faint werelight outlines them as the container shrinks and morphs into a metal cigarette case with a runic design in the center. Activating this expands the container back to its full size. From inside, the runes glow faintly for as long as the container is shrunk(this does not provide illumination, but indication)
Mike has leaned in on his new employment and marked a number of the various containers from the ship with runes at the interior eight corners which anchor the inner space of the container in place, while opposing runes on the outer corners allow his imbued magic to spatially compress and transform the outside. The cigarette case form is just a jab at his boss's smoking habit.
No change for rework.

Your Shipping Container has a normal storage capacity, but can be collapsed down to a pocket-sized version without losing any internal storage. You cannot access the contents while it is collapsed. Objects stored inside are weightless.
Living things can be stored in your Shipping Container. They will have access to anything else inside and may attempt to break free, damaging or destroying the Shipping Container in the process.
If your Shipping Container 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.

As the activation ritual is performed, the origami wings unfold from the user's back and extend ten feet on all sides. Due to their modular structure-- being composed of countless amounts of paper sheets and feathers-- the wings are effectively immune to damage, as they repair themselves with replacement feathers the moment they are destroyed.
The calibration sequence to connect the wings to the user requires them to extend their arms to the side (reaching their wingspan) and read aloud a pangram (ex: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog").
The wings connect themselves to the user's inner Source or Mind to power their movements through the calibration sequence. Basically just imagine the wings the paper girl from Naruto uses (Konan).
Exert your Mind and spend two Actions performing the following ritual: activating and calibrating the wings with the user. You must maintain Concentration while activating this Effect, and it fails if you are interrupted. This Effect remains active for two hours.
