Stim Valves 'beats the hell out of coffee...

This Artifact grants you tolerance to pain and distractions.
Used by Felix Law, Created by MackAndSneeze.
On Legendary Artifact Law's Prosthesis.
(You must wear or wield this Artifact plainly to receive these benefits.)

Synthetic veins and arteries have been grown along the core of the prosthetic arm, allowing for constant and automatic chemical manipulation in the bloodstream.

Taking advantage of the arm's connection to the cardiovascular system at the shoulder joint, reserves of stimulants and narcotic substances are perpetually released into the bloodstream, essentially keeping the wearer on a localized IV drip that dampens pain and regulates psychological state automatically.


You gain the following benefits as long as you are wearing this Artifact.

Your Stress from Injuries and Mind Damage is reduced to 0.

While Incapacitated, you may Exert your Mind to take a single action.
