Sockeye Sunflowers You know I see the way, see the way you look at me!

This Artifact allows you to sense things humans cannot.
Used by Marcielle Hallowes, Created by TotalFarmage.
On Legendary Artifact Terra Incognita.
(You must obviously use this Artifact to activate this Effect. When activating this Effect, this Artifact is obviously Alien and cannot be concealed under your clothes or similar.)

A thick green stem emerges from Terra Incognita, topped with a large bulb. In a matter of moments, the bulb blooms into a large, vibrant sunflower. The petals are yellow, streaked with smeared red, and the florets in the middle are swirled into the shape of an eye. The sunflower constantly and visibly turns to face the warmest thing in front of it.

Marcielle’s third attempt at cultivating the perfect crop. An unequivocal failure.


Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend an Action.

Your senses are enhanced in the following way. Lasts for three hours.

  • Electroreception: You may detect electromagnetic fields, electric currents, and even neurological activity in a 50 foot radius from yourself at all times. When detecting neurological activity, you learn nothing but the creature's rough size.
  • Thermal: You are able to "see" heat signatures within your line of sight.

Any senses which have been heightened cannot be overloaded. Battle Scars you receive cannot affect these senses. If one of these senses does become suppressed, you may Exert your Mind to end the effect.

  • Examples of overloading a sense include: an explosion causing temporary deafness, a bright light causing blindness, a sedative causing numbness, etc.
  • When you are within 50 feet of range, your electroreception sense is sufficient for aiming.
  • Your thermal vision allows you to judge temperatures of surfaces fairly accurately as long as they are within livable temperatures.
