When “The Firm’s Uniform” is activated, the transformation it undergoes is both subtle and imbued with an air of professional gravitas. The artifact, perhaps initially resembling a nondescript piece of legal attire or accessory, begins to shimmer with an ethereal gloss reminiscent of the polished sheen on a lawyer’s briefcase or the gleam of a well-maintained courtroom. This visual cue is brief, serving as a prelude to the transformation, much like the opening remarks in a meticulously prepared legal argument.
As the item changes, its edges blur momentarily, mimicking the effect of pages flipping rapidly through a legal tome, searching for the right precedent or statute. This transition is smooth and deliberate, echoing the precision and confidence of a seasoned attorney presenting their case. The new form materializes with the precision of a well-drafted contract, each detail snapping into place with the finality of a judge’s gavel.
This Artifact can change its appearance. When not transformed, it is roughly the same size as a Clothing and just as difficult to conceal.
Exert your Mind and spend a Quick Action to activate. This Artifact changes its appearance into an Object within the category of Clothing. This lasts until you decide to end the Effect, which may be done as a Free Action.
The new object's appearance can mimic specific items (such as a particular painting, a certain person’s ID, etc), but must be of a similar size and weight to this Artifact.
The new appearance is illusory; it will hold up to scrutiny, but its composition is not altered and it gains no new functionality. Any attempt to use it for a function which it cannot perform (for instance, making bread look like a knife and then trying to stab someone) will cause the illusion to fail or allow a Perception check to see through the illusion, at the GM's discretion.
When used as identification and scanned, the scanner will act appropriately and bring up appropriate generic information. Further searches for the identity in the computer will turn up no results.
A badge displaying the symbol and Acronym for the Bikers against child abuse. It is a sign against the wickedness of people who think that what they do to these poor children is allowed.
You hold the badge to your heart and remember what you are fighting for. The badge begins to slightly glow before filling you with determination.
Seeing a child be abused is unforgivable.
It is our duty to make sure these kids stay safe, no matter what it takes.
You gain the following benefits as long as you are wearing this Artifact.
Your Stress from Injuries and Mind Damage is reduced to 0.
You take the B.A.C.A. Badge and think about all the people you want to protect.
You begin to convince yourself, that no harm will befall you before you jump into the line of fire.
A Protective barrier surrounds you, that looks like a leather jacket, surrounding you from head to toe.
“Giving those kids a leather jacket really means something. You remind them, that they can be strong themselves.”
Exert your Mind and spend an Action or Reaction. Roll Charisma + Influence at Difficulty 6.
If you succeed, you create a barrier around yourself, which absorbs the next Outcome +2 Damage. The Damage reduction from the barrier is applied before Armor. This Artifact may only have 1 active barrier at a time.
You must maintain Concentration while using this Effect. The barrier will fall if you are interrupted, or if it absorbs the full amount of Damage. When a barrier falls, you cannot use this Effect again for a minimum of 2 Rounds.
You hold the badge to your head. You are able to quietly hear the sound of motorcycles as a door appears with the word B.A.C.A. on it. Three bikers wearing sunglasses and leather jackets with the B.A.C.A. Acronym on it step out. These are the ghost of three of the most devote B.A.C.A. Members who gave their lives, saving children.
Some of the things you see while on the job are truly gut wrenching. Some of those things can cause your body to physically revolt, leaving you with the feeling, that you could have done more.
“How about you pick on someone your own size!”
Exert your Mind and spend an Action.
Summon up to 3 Sapient B.A.C.A. Members at your location. They last for two hours or until they move more than 150 feet from you or are destroyed. They are controlled by the GM but will follow any commands you give. This Artifact may have at most 3 minions active at a time.
Anyone who touches this Artifact will notice it warping their mind and may drop it. If they choose to hold or use it, they immediately receive the following Trauma: Nightmares about child abuse. If they lose possession of this Artifact, the Trauma heals over the course of the next day.
You hold the artifact in front of the injury before saying:”Listen to me”. The artifact glows as the person using it does a pep talk to convince the other person to push thought and that everything will be alright.
They Target sees visions of all the children in need and suffering, which for some is too much to bare.
“Knowing, that there is someone who believes in you, is sometimes all that you need”.
Exert your Mind and spend 15 minutes. Select a Living target within arm's reach. Your target must make a Trauma roll to reap the benefits of this Effect. They may choose to Resist the Effect and not make the roll. Choose a specific Injury on your target that has not yet been treated with this Effect and roll Charisma + Influence 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.
Having the badge means, having a responsibility, which you have accepted by taking the badge. Not having it on you as you sleep fills your nights with dread.
A tear rolls down their face, as they think about all the children in need. They feel a warm feeling in their chest, as the badge appears in their hand or right next to them.
We gotta do it for the kids man!

A stringed thread, weaved such a way that would be a symbol of not only protection, but strength and good faith. When the ward protects, it reveals to the user the possible futures of which they are affected, the past and present of whatever reason this affliction was placed upon thee.
To the outside eyes, the thread glows dimly, almost as if it were to warn the user of the thread being tangled. It grows, an a knot is formed as another string of fate has been subverted.

With the throw of a switch and the crackle of electricity, a pair of metallic arms burst from within the Spark. Lined with thread and severed parts(?), it quickly cobbles together a set of taxidermied creatures, which readily hop to their feet and begin their work. Without a steady source of thread, however, the animals fall apart, meaning they need to stay vaguely nearby for quick repairs if needed.
Expend a point of Battery and spend an Action.
Summon up to 3 Non-Sapient, Animate taxidermied animals at your location. They last until they move more than 150 feet from you or are destroyed They are controlled by the GM but will follow any commands you give. This Artifact may have at most 3 minions active at a time.

You open up a line of communication to your target, and may converse with them as long as one of you maintains Concentration
The conversation will only be perceived by the intended recipient. You must share a common language for your target to understand the message.
You give the patient an 'examination', which mostly consists of making thinly-veiled innuendos and telling them that they're fine, actually. A *biiig, strong* contractor like them wouldn't let a little gunshot wound to the abdomen slow them down, would they?
There's also some magical particle effects. Hearts and sparkles and stuff. You get it.

Your patient is required to not accept medical treatments or diagnoses from any sources but you for the next month. If they violate this rule, your treatment is immediately reversed.
Michio's signature car, this Nissan Silvia is a well maintained vehicle with custom designs that Michio has seen to himself. Having recently crashed it to the point of near destruction Michio thought his dear was all but gone, only to find out that it was extracted repaired and even... enhanced by a certain individual.
