Crafted Artifact

Banishment Knot Charm

Created by Frank Lambert, given to Preston Vincent Astor III.
A piece of rope tied into a mystic knot

By Placing The Mystic Knot forward and giving your mind and will into the Knot you can begin banishing evil creatures.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action to activate. Select a Animate target within arm’s reach. This Effect cannot be used unless Can Only Be Used On Ghosts, Demons, Spirits, and Undead. Make a Trauma roll when you activate this Effect. Roll Dexterity + Occult at Difficulty 6. Your target may resist by rolling Body at Difficulty 7.

If you succeed, the target is afflicted with a Condition that causes one of the following symptoms:

  • Brain Fog: The target’s thoughts are muddled and incoherent. They must succeed a Mind roll to remember details of things, at Difficulty 7 for old details and Difficulty 9 for things which occurred while afflicted. They also take a -2 penalty to all mental actions, which grows by -1 every hour until it reaches your Outcome.
  • Psychotic Episodes: The target must make a Trauma roll each hour at a -1 dice penalty, increasing each hour until it reaches your Outcome.
Symptoms begin to appear immediately, and will remain and continue to worsen until the affliction is cured. The affliction is not contagious and will not spread to others.

The affliction is not treatable by modern medicine. It may be diagnosed by rolling Intellect + Occult at Difficulty 6, and can be cured by Be Blessed By someone of the Buddhist faith.

This Effect ends if you are stunned, fall asleep, go unconscious, are incapacitated, die, or if your total Penalty ever exceeds 5.

  • Successfully diagnosing an affliction also includes information about the treatment method.
  • The chosen method of treatment must be something that you could obtain in a small town given an afternoon.
  • Curing an affliction removes the Condition, but does not automatically heal any Injuries, Battle Scars, or Traumas which may have been caused by that condition.
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.

Liam's Booster Boots

Created by Ethos, given to Liam Holloway.
These chunky black & tan boots feature a polycarbonate toe & sole. When activated they burn with a ghostly blue-white energy.

The booster boots are able to create thrust for a limited amount of time. They are Rocket Boots, so generate exhaust & noise, though expert craftsmanship reduces the sound to manageable levels (about the same as a vacuum) - the nature of the exhaust will reflect the Source of the wielder.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. This Effect remains active for two hours.

As long as you are conscious, you are immune to falling Damage and may hover in place mid-air. Additionally, you may glide as you fall, traveling 35 feet horizontally for every 10 feet you fall. While gliding, you fall at a minimum speed of 10 feet per Round.

You may ascend into the air and fly using your mind. Your Free Movement is Mind x5 feet/Round, including vertically. You cannot Dash. When sprinting, roll Mind and add your rating in Mind plus 1 to the outcome, multiply by 5 to find your sprint speed. Your encumbrance limit is 10 lbs per point of Mind.

You are subject to the following effects while gliding or flying:

  • Evasive Maneuvers: During your turn, if you moved mostly through the air but traveled less than your Free Movement, all attacks against you are at a -2 dice penalty until your next turn.
  • Icarus: If you fly higher than 50 feet in the air, you must roll 1 die, Difficulty 6. If you fail, this Effect ends early and cannot be reactivated for an hour. Make this roll again at every interval of 50 feet off the ground (100 feet, 150 feet, etc).
  • Earthbound: You cannot fly or glide in an atmosphere thin enough to be unbreathable.
  • Weight-Limited: This Effect is suppressed any time you are over-encumbered.

  • Any penalties to dice or movement, including from Encumbrance, are applied as normal. If your movement is reduced to 0 due to encumbrance, you will begin to sink down to the ground.
  • You may activate this Effect while in midair, allowing you to slow and survive any free fall.

[Unregistered] Gloves

Created and held by Motoha Arai.
A pair of gloves that fit comfortably around Motoha's hands, code can be seen running along its surface when in dark rooms.

Motoha has spent time modifying the skill system of neo-genis, granting her the capability of making small tweaks to a players avatar.

Exert your Mind and spend eight hours. Select a Living or Animate target within arm's reach. The target can easily Resist.

You may add one augmentation to your target. Each augmentation counts as a Battle Scar and can have exactly one of the following Effects:

  • Specialized: You receive +2 dice to a particular non-combat, non-Effect Action.
  • Environmental Adaptation: You do not suffer harm from heat, cold, pressure, or lack of oxygen in a particular environment, provided that challenge normally exists in that environment.
  • Implanted Tool: You have access to the functionality of some common Device at all times. The selected Device can be no larger than a motorcycle helmet.
  • Armor: You have 2 Armor at all times. As always, Armor from multiple sources does not stack.
  • Pouch: Part of your body functions as a hidden pocket. It can hold no more than a briefcase (15 liters).
  • Zippy: Your Free Movement is increased by 10 feet.
  • Maws and Claws: Your unarmed attacks do +2 Weapon Damage instead of -1.

The augmentations you provide are not outwardly visible nor obvious.

  • Remember: A Contractor’s Body rating is reduced by 1 for each Battle Scar after their fourth.
  • You may not augment targets with pouches or implanted devices that are larger than they are.
  • Targets without Body ratings may have a maximum of 4 augmentations.
  • Example environments for adaptation: space, all saltwater, all fresh water, all water under 50 feet deep, all water deeper than 50 feet, the jungle, radioactive areas, a specific alien world, etc.
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.

Motoha modifies the targets code, causing green and black lines to wrap themselves around the target, attempting to modify their animation speed to 0%.

Spend an Action. Select a target within 45 feet. Roll Intellect + Technology at Difficulty 6. The target may contest by Defending or Dodging.

If you succeed, your target will be restricted at their location by a physical, tangible binding. They cannot move to a new location, and, if your Contested Outcome was greater than their Brawn, they are encased and cannot take any physical Actions other than attempting to escape until they break free.

Restricted targets may escape their binding by spending an Action and taking a Severity-1 Injury. Their movement is reduced by 10 feet until the Injury heals.

You may use this Effect as a Reaction to contest any physical Action a target is taking. Excess Outcome does not restrict the target. This interrupts Concentration.

This Gift cannot have more than 3 Drawbacks, and its Gift Cost is capped at 1.

  • For entities whose movement could be considered an attack (e.g. a kaiju), the GM may rule that they are merely slowed instead of fully restricted.
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.

Motoha's gloves flicker green as a computer inspector tab appears before her, her body and anyone she is holding then digitizing into code, before reforming rapidly at her designated location, the inspector fading away shortly after.

Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend an Action. Select a Location which is at most 60 feet away horizontally or 15 feet away vertically.

You jump to the chosen location. If jumping blind or landing precariously, must roll Dexterity + Athletics to land safely. You will never take fall Damage from successfully landing a jump made with this Effect.

You may activate this Effect while in free-fall, as long as your target Location is a surface on which you can land. You are immune to fall damage.

Instead of physically passing through the air, you are teleported directly to your destination. Does not allow you to go through walls, cages, or grapples.

  • If you are Encumbered, the maximum range is cut in half. If Encumbrance has reduced your total movement to 0, you cannot activate this Effect.
  • vertical jump height measures to the bottom of your feet, so your total vertical reach is at least a body length greater.
  • Rolls to land safely will generally be Athletics, but GMs may call for a different roll at their discretion if it makes sense for the specific circumstances.
  • You may only use this Effect once per Round of combat, regardless of any Enhancements you have taken.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.

Motoha has elaborately linked her gloves to herself by force parenting them under herself, saving them from harm or other adverse effects.
However this comes at a cost, as without these gloves she wears, she is weakened mentally, a side effect from neo's logistic system.

This Artifact cannot be broken. If this Artifact is lost and in no one else’s possession, it finds its way back to its true owner during the next Downtime.

By default, the creator of this Artifact is its true owner. The true owner may formally bequeath this Artifact onto another person within arm’s reach, after which they are its true owner. If the true owner dies or is destroyed, their ownership ends. If this Artifact has no true owner, anyone may spend one day attuning to it to become its true owner.

This Artifact's true owner is always aware of the direction and distance to this Artifact.

If this Artifact is in no one else’s possession, its true owner may Exert their Mind and spend two Actions to bring it to themselves.

This Artifact's true owner must have it with them to have restful sleep. They cannot regain Mind or Source while separated from this Artifact.

  • "Cannot be broken" means that damage cannot render the Artifact's Effects unusable, nor can it cease to be used for its primary mundane purpose, if it has one.

You plant your feet — low, predatory — and your knees bend like you’re ready to lunge.

Your hands curl slightly, claws flexing out from the fursuit’s gauntlets, and the fur along your shoulders and arms rises sharply, standing on end like a living animal ready to strike.

As you draw in a deep, almost silent breath, the seams of the fursuit stretch over tightened muscle —
you seem to bulk up slightly, not supernatural growth, but like your entire body tenses in perfect readiness.

Then it happens:

You throw your head slightly forward, shoulders rolling, and you roar —
a brutal, guttural blast of sound that isn’t just heard — it hits.

The air distorts in a visible shockwave around your chest and mouth, like a concussive burst.

Spend an Action. Select a target within arm's reach. Roll Charisma + Influence Difficulty 6. The target may contest by rolling to Dodge or Defend as a Reaction, Difficulty 6.

If the Contested Outcome is positive, the target takes that much Damage plus 2.

You may use this Effect to Defend against any melee, projectile, or firearm Attacks within range or Clash against any Attack targeted at you. Using it to Defend deals no Damage but does not cost Exertion.

This Gift cannot have more than 3 Drawbacks, and its Gift Cost is capped at 2.

Instead of dealing Damage all at once, the Injury caused by this Power starts at Severity 1 and worsens at the rate of one level per Round until it reaches the Severity it would have otherwise been.

  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of Effect. There must be no substantial obstructions between you and your target.

Your fursuit isn’t clothing.
It isn’t armor.
It’s a living body — a second skin of synthetic fur, reinforced hide, and hidden machinery —
grown around you like a biological exoskeleton.

The bulk of it — the Gio frame — forms a core spine inside the fursuit, housing motors, servos, compressed air bladders, and liquid muscle that flexes with your movements.
It wraps around your arms, legs, chest, and back — internal, not external — powering every lunge, every sprint, every leap.

You don’t sit on the machine.
You don’t ride it.
You and it are the same creature.

The fursuit’s paws hide motorized wheels and amphibious drive systems beneath their pads —
letting you run across the land faster than any natural beast,
or dive into water and slice through it like an apex predator,
all while still moving on your own legs.

When you act,
the machine doesn’t respond to commands.
It responds to instincts.

You feel the buzz of artificial muscles tightening under the fake fur, the flex of reinforced ankles pushing you faster, the brief pressure release as internal air systems adjust to keep you balanced at any speed.

When you Roar, when you Track, when you Hunt —
it’s not a fursuit and a machine and a human.
It’s one body, one will, one wolf.

If you abandon it, it doesn’t just shut down —
it withers like a starved beast, curling into itself and dying, because without your soul driving it, it cannot survive.

This Artifact can be used as a Gio All-Season Enclosed Mobility Scooter. It is roughly the same size as a Gio All-Season Enclosed Mobility Scooter and just as difficult to conceal.

This Gio All-Season Enclosed Mobility Scooter has Key Features: • Hidden spring wheels in the thick soles of the feet. • Manual movement still possible (walking, jumping, crouching). • Optional glide mode triggered by a shift in weight or internal button. • Zero visible mechanical parts unless you’re upside down. • Slightly heavier foot padding to hide the hardware.. Any roll to pilot this vehicle receives +2 dice.

You also gain the following effects:

  • Amphibious: Your vehicle may move on land as well as under water at its normal speed. If your vehicle includes an enclosed space, it will function as an airtight, pressurized cockpit.
  • Drive-By: You may drive or pilot your vehicle as a Free Action, without taking any penalty on other Actions.
  • Flying Solo: Your vehicle cannot have any passengers.

This item is a living thing. When targeted, it counts as a Living Creature in addition to its other target types. If destroyed or abandoned for more than two days, it dies and becomes unusable.

When you act,
the fursuit moves with you — seamless, alive —
and your presence rips the center of gravity out of the world.

It isn’t rage.
It isn’t fear.
It’s gravity.

Every motion — the flex of your paws, the slight ripple of your fur, the glint of your gaze —
pulls the senses inward.

To predators, you are a rival too strong to ignore.
To prey, you are the storm on the horizon.
To the lost, you are the guide through the dark.
To the angry, you are the challenge that cannot be resisted.
It doesn’t matter why they fixate — only that they do.

Their eyes lock.
Their minds narrow.
The world collapses into you —
and for a few heartbeats,
you are everything.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. A number of Sapient, Living targets within 50 feet who can perceive you through no greater than your Charisma rating are affected. Audiences or mobs with a singular focus count as one target. Roll Charisma + Influence at Difficulty 6. All affected targets may resist by rolling Mind at Difficulty 7.

If you succeed, the targets will keep their full attention focused on you for as long as you maintain Concentration. They will automatically fail any rolls related to noticing anything other than you.

If you pass from their perception and they are unable to pursue you, the Effect ends. If they can follow you, they must do so for 2 Rounds or the Effect will end. The Effect ends early if the target is Injured or violence occurs nearby.

This does not affect the target’s opinion of you or their mood, and they may take any Actions while affected (including attacking), as long as that action centers on you. Fascinated targets cannot Concentrate.

  • You must retain Concentration to keep up the effect; if your Concentration is interrupted, the effect will end.
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.
