The Sons of Salem
We swear to secure our people against the wickedness and evil of the invisible world.
We swear to aid the afflicted.
We swear to stay ever vigilant and seek out the abominable witchcrafts committed in this country.
We humbly pray to be blessed by God to hold all those who consort with the Devil accountable. Amen
—Opening and closing prayer for Sons of Salem meetings.
The Sons of Salem is a loosely-organized conservative populist movement in the United States that preaches violent opposition to anything they perceive as witchcraft, demonic, or monstrous.
Blowhard podcaster Ted Gundy and former general of the mercenary group “Hognose,” Roland Rush, founded the movement in 2010 after a series of violent werewolf attacks and unexplained, supernatural murders in Tennessee. Memberships grew quickly, stoked by Ted’s fiery doomsday rhetoric on his podcast "Truth Seekers" and the aspiration of the masculine power embodied by Roland.
Although they speak of duty, honor, and maintaining the “natural order” of things, the Sons of Salem are driven by fear. They collect guns and appear at protests en-masse as a way of easing the all-consuming terror of their powerlessness. At the same time, they have conditioned themselves to respond to fear with “strength” (read: violence).

Chronoshard Aegis
Time heals all wounds—I weaponize the scars.
Verso’s armor is a reinforced engineer’s coat crafted from layered ballistic nylon and brass-infused Kevlar, its seams stitched with nearly invisible titanium thread. The cursed pocket watch is discreetly mounted inside the left breast pocket, its chain woven into the coat’s lining like a vascular system. At a glance, it resembles a rugged workman’s jacket—grease-stained, patched, and unremarkable.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
You have 4, which reduces incoming damage from all sources of physical attack except Lighting Damage. Armor from multiple sources does not stack. This Armor cannot be circumvented with Called Shots.

The Shell to Guard the Future
To keep what I've earned
These plates come together to form a protective surface that appears like welding gear - thick gloves, Kevlar sleeves, a heavy apron, and of course, an OSHA-compliant helmet and mask. The heavy workboots and thick workpants are meant to emulate Diamond as they were, allowing Diamond to pass more easily at their job.
The plates hook into Diamond's frame to distribute their weight, hence why you need to be an android or cyborg to wear them - you need hardpoints to mount the plates to. They also require some form of power so as to activate Defense Curl, Vanguard, and Thorns, as the Thorns is narratively an electro-thaumic discharge from Diamond's onboard reactor, Vanguard is from energized sensor-circuits just under the skin, and Defense Curl is overcharging the whole system to magnetize it to the body.
Deactivating the Armor will allow Diamond to cause it to explode off them and reassemble on the floor, dealing no damage, but it's flashy and showy, and I want heavy armor plates to embed themselves in soft earth as a show of just how heavy "Bulky" really is.
You gain the following benefits as long as you have sufficient power and hardpoints to mount it and you are wearing this Artifact.

Whenever your Armor reduces incoming Damage, you are immediately made aware of the source of the Damage. You may pinpoint their location for 30 seconds.
You may activate or deactivate your armor as a Free Action on your Initiative. As long as your armor is active, your movement speed is halved and you suffer -2 dice to all Dexterity and Perception rolls. While deactivated, it offers no Armor.

Thalassic Aegis
The ocean's embrace, a living shield
Thalassic Aegis manifests as an inexplicable protective phenomenon surrounding Marina. This ability creates a barrier of water that responds to threats with uncanny timing and precision.
Moments before an attack connects, ambient moisture coalesces or water seemingly materializes from nowhere. The aqueous shield adapts to each threat: hardening into ice to deflect blades, dispersing into mist to slow projectiles, or erupting in pressurized jets to alter the trajectory of incoming strikes.
The water's form shifts fluidly between states - liquid, solid, and vapor - each transformation accompanied by a faint, otherworldly shimmer. As Marina's experiences accumulate, Thalassic Aegis appears to grow more effective, occasionally even lashing out at attackers with tentacle-like water whips or sudden steam explosions.
Marina remains puzzled by the true nature and origin of this power. It feels instinctual, like an extension of her connection to the sea, yet carries hints of something vaster and more mysterious. Each activation leaves her with fleeting impressions of depths unexplored and secrets yet to be fathomed in the world's oceans.
You gain the following benefits at all times.
You have 3 Armor, which reduces incoming Damage. Armor from multiple sources does not stack. This Armor cannot be circumvented with Called Shots.

Recharging Shield
"We don't have video games when I come from."
