Crafted Artifact

Sewing Machine

Created and held by Mr. Fox.
The sewing machine has small golden inlays, with a silver bottom and golden thread spitting out of the machine when turned on.

When using the handheld sewing machine, the lining that comes out of the machine is gold strands, that blends within the material that it touches. After doing so, it sews back together for a functional object.

Exert your Mind and spend 60 minutes. Select a Object within arm's reach that is no larger than an SUV. You may target Alien technology, so long as you have an understanding of its intended function. More than half the target object must be present in order to begin repairs. Roll Dexterity + Crafts at Difficulty 6.

If you succeed, your target is repaired back to a functional state. If you fail, you spend the full time working before realizing you cannot repair the target.

You may only use this Effect once per day.

  • 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.

(Deprived) Bavarian Brooch

Created and held by Tarhos Kovacs.
A small metal, knight's crest that is in the shape of a shield with two swords crossed over each other with small red jewels in the hilts with a small and sturdy metal bar attached to a chain that could be worn on the collar of most attire. It was given to him by the man who trained him in the ways of combat.

The user of this gift will be enveloped in what appears to be 13th century medieval plated armor including a full sealed armet helmet.

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

You have 6 Armor, which reduces incoming Damage. Armor from multiple sources does not stack. Called Shots may circumvent your Armor, depending on its coverage.

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.

  • This Effect’s Armor rating cannot be increased by any other Effects.

The user of this gift will fade from reality and visibly become a faint green hued ethereal man that will be able to move freely through most surfaces.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action.

You phase out of reality for up to 10 minutes. During this time, you cannot affect the outside world (other than non-combat Actions using your hands, at +2 Difficulty) or take any Actions. You may move as normal while phased out. You may pass through walls and "climb" up and down through solid material at normal climbing speeds. Nothing can interact with you in any way.

When you activate this Effect, you may limit its duration to a period of your choosing. If you are able, you may also end it as a Free Action on your initiative.

You leave A faint green hued ghost like man at your location.

After this Effect ends, you cannot move quicker than a walk (15 feet per Round) for one minute and suffer a -1 dice penalty for an hour.

  • If you phase in while intersecting with solid material, you take a severe, potentially-lethal Injury.
  • Any items and equipment on your person become intangible along with you. You cannot interact with them, as they are intangible.
  • Effects that do not require a physical target may still affect you.
  • You may use your Free Movement on the Round you phase back in, but you cannot take an Action.

Diva

Created and held by Winsley Herman.
It appears as a clockwork version of the desired weapon. The projectiles are self-produced caseless rounds made of brass. The Words “Mortui salutem” Are etched into each round. Gears churn silently throughout its immaculate brass casing. Shots are left to a whispered hiss of steam. When changing forms tentacles reach out from within the casing and rearrange the barrel and shape in a moment. It can turn into a seemingly mundane lighter with clockwork inspirations that still functions as normally. Diva is a god of violence and craves the thrill of the hunt.

The last spin

Created and held by Toropova Ivanova.
A Nagant M1895, the gun looks worned down from continual use and the chamber is prone to losens.

Anastasia slots an intricately engraved bullet into the chamber of the gun and spins it. In a quick motion she puts the gun to her temple and pulls the trigger. After the click she points the gun at the enemy and loses a shot.

Spend an Action. Select a target within 300 feet. Roll a single D10 as a critical failure check. If you roll a 1, the Effect fails, and you gain battle scar: traumatic brain injurie.

If the Contested Outcome is positive, the target takes that much Damage plus 4. Armor is fully effective against this Damage.
