Inhale the spirits and blow out the the smoke. The Artifact is a Wooden Smoking Pipe, with tribal carvings. Both parties start "Tripping Balls"

Expend a point of Battery and spend 15 minutes. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Your target must make a Trauma roll when you activate this Effect. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Intellect + Occult at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, the Injury is reduced in Severity by your Outcome. If you reduce its Severity to 0, the Injury is fully healed. Otherwise, it is partially healed and will heal the rest of the way at its natural rate.
This counts as a successful Makeshift Stabilization if the Injury was not already Stabilized; any Battle Scars caused by the Injury will remain.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see The spirits of Dead Indegious Tribals that dance creepily, tearing away at each other's ghostly flash and replacing the wound's of the chosen with the vitality of their own..
People tend not to believe in bad omens or bad luck, either out of fear or simple superstition. These people are incorrect. Moreover, this energy that many people relegate to being harmful can be twisted into something useful. Or, perhaps better described as something that has been purified.
This artifact looks like a card of some sort with - symbols carved into it. The user says the words,
"Come, o' spirit of Grimalkin."
In a greenish haze of mysterious mist, the card summons a black cat with a special pattern of white fur that seems deliberately painted or designed. This Cat hangs around and absorbs small amounts of "bad juju". It can be directed toward a battle scar, whereafter, it will begin to knead the flesh of its target, imbuing them with its incredible stored energy. This energy gives the body what it needs to regrow/fix the battlescar, though the Black Cat isn't capable of purging the energy once its finished and it has to come out somehow...
Expend a point of Battery and spend a minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Select a Battle Scar on your target to treat.
The treated Battle Scar heals as you finish activating this Effect. If used on a Battle Scar caused by an Unstabilized Injury, that Injury is Stabilized.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see a tentacle black mass regurgitated from the target's mouth. After a few moments, it reforms to look exactly like the target except with the same battlescar that was just healed, and will attempt to immediately flee into the nearest body of water and dissappear.
If Kevin finds someone who he beleives is a true friend he will share with them a homemade bracelet with them telling them as long as they have this he will be beside them. When they grip the bracelet and call out for Kevins help his original character will appear from a rift in space which through for a moment you can see Ponyland.
Exert your Mind and spend two Actions performing the following ritual: Grip the bracelet and say "Kevin I need your help.". This Effect cannot be used unless the Wielder had a meaningful relationship with Kevin in life. You must maintain Concentration while activating this Effect, and it fails if you are interrupted.
Summon a single Kevin at your location. They will last for two hours, or until they are destroyed. They are controlled by the GM and will not necessarily obey your commands. This Artifact may have at most 1 minion active at a time.
You may only use this Effect once per day.
A 355ml bottle made of what appears to be heavy glass, and filled with a viscous liquid that churns in ribbons of black, dark red, pale yellow, and a sickly green. When it is drunk, it goes down smoothly, but there are no words to describe how unpleasant the aftertaste is. Immediately after being downed, the mouth, throat, sinuses, and stomach burn. The body rejects any toxic or diseasing contaminations and expels them through any available avenue, along with the ingested elixir, as the mind trembles under the experience.
Roughly a third of the bottle's contents must be consumed to take effect, and it seems to reconstitute the volume of a single use per day.
Expend a point of Battery and spend 1 minute. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Your target takes a Severity 1 Injury. Your target must make a Trauma roll when you activate this Effect.
You may cure any Non-Alien diseases, toxins, or poisons afflicting your target even if you have not diagnosed or fully understood it. You may cure diseases or poisons even if they are not treatable through modern medicine. During treatment, the malady you are treating does not progress or cause additional Damage or other effects.
Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see the target's body visibly shakes with obviously excruciating agony as blood, phlegm, and black and yellow bile are expelled from their pores, mouth, and sinuses.
A large chest sits in front of the person, seemingly for the taking! Upon opening the chest, you realize that those video games were actually right. Teeth, a tongue greet you as it licks up your items, perhaps even threatening you as well! However. With storing your items, it closes back over, perhaps thanking you for the meal. It quickly collaspes into a wallet. As if it wasn't just a hungry monster eating chest. Though, opening the wallet, you can still see some teeth at times!
This Artifact can be used as a container. It is roughly the same size as a Large Metal Banded Wooden Chest but can be collapsed into A Wallet and concealed. Collapsing or expanding it costs a Quick Action.
Your Large Metal Banded Wooden Chest 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 weigh their normal amount.
Living things can be stored in your Large Metal Banded Wooden Chest. They will have access to anything else inside and may attempt to break free, damaging or destroying the Large Metal Banded Wooden Chest in the process.
If your Large Metal Banded Wooden Chest is destroyed, things inside may get out, and it will cease to function until it is repaired.
This item is a living thing. It counts as a Creature when targeted. If destroyed or abandoned for more than two days, it dies and becomes unusable.
The user traces the carving of a moth shaped key repeatedly, thinking of the shape they wish to hide in. At the end if the ritual, a new skin drapes over the user like a cloth.
This artifact allows the user to summon a new skin from the Mansus made of the jumbled memories of the dead, and remove the distinction between the user and the new skin. For a time, at least.
Exert your Mind and spend a half hour.
You become disguised in a manner of your choosing. The disguise lasts for two hours, or you may end it early at will.

This device is a piece of chrome the size and shape of the back of a spoon. When placed against the skin, small hypodermic needles sprout from the device and attach it to the user's bloodstream.
