Enten

Created and held by Woebhiro Rokuhira.
Katana

The katana features a sleek grey blade, with sharp edges that fade into a bright white. Its handle is wrapped in black leather, offering a firm grip. The guard has a silver or tin-like color, adding a touch of refinement to the overall design.

To prevent unauthorized usage, This weapon is connected to Woebhiro using a "Lifelong Contract"
(Once someone becomes a wielder of an Enchanted Blade, only they will be able to access the blade's techniques until their death.)

The last of the seven katanas forged by Kunishige Rokuhira, and the one which he gave his life to protect. Enten is infused with sorcery and possesses supernatural powers that appear to be based on 3 goldfish that Kunishige bought from a shop when Chihiro was still a child. According to Kunishige, when talking about the goldfish he had bought, the red goldfish "attracts good fortune", the black goldfish "wards off evil", and the three-colored goldfish is "supposed to be totally amazing".

Currently the sword's lacks his abilities, as Woebhiro lacks the knowledge and power to unlock it's true potential.

This Artifact can be used as a sword / axe. It is roughly the same size as a sword / axe and just as difficult to conceal.

Attack by rolling Brawn + Melee, Difficulty 6. Successful attacks deal Contested Outcome +4 Weapon Damage.

You also gain the following effects:

  • This melee weapon may extend for a single attack up to 50 feet away. Retracting back into its usable size is a Quick Action.
  • Shredder: If you successfully hit your target, the value of any Armor they are wearing is reduced by 2. For material armor, this penalty lasts until it is repaired. For intrinsic armor, it lasts until the end of Combat and any relevant wound is healed.

  • Reminder: additional Weapon Damage granted by this Effect does not stack with any other bonus to Weapon Damage. Instead the largest bonus is used.

summons the red goldfish from "Enten" which swims around Woebhiro to block him from any incoming attack

Whatever attack the red goldfish blocks will be absorbed by it. By saying "Aka" followed by the name of the opponent's attack, Enten will be covered in a red liquid which then fires the same attack in the direction that the blade was pointing.

Uses the power of the red goldfish residing in the sword "Enten", Aka supposedly "Attracts good fortune"

Expend a point of Battery and spend an Action or Reaction. Roll Dexterity + Melee at Difficulty 6.

If you succeed, you create a barrier around yourself, which absorbs the next Outcome + 4 Damage. Any Damage absorbed by the barrier is reflected back to the attacker, up to a maximum of the Barrier Strength Parameter’s bonus. Their Armor applies in full. 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.

  • If you use this Effect as a Reaction to dodge, you still need to make a roll to dodge. The Effect will occur regardless of the Outcome of this roll, but if you fail you will be hit by the relevant attack prior to the Effect occurring.

Woebhiro summons the tri-colored goldfish which becomes a 'cloak' that Woebhiro wears, causing colored streaks to follow the motion of his blade and body. This technique imbues Woebhiro's attacks with high-density spirit energy, resulting in significantly more powerful attacks. Nishiki also grants Woebhiro greatly amplified movement speed and agility.

Exert your Mind and spend a Quick Action.

You transform into Nishiki for 3 Rounds. You have access to all of your Powers while you are Nishiki, and you can use your equipment. Your Battle Scars, Injuries, and physical Liabilities are carried over between forms. Reverting from your Alternate Form cannot cause your existing Injuries to kill you. Instead, you remain Incapacitated.

While transformed, your Brawn is increased by 1 and your Dexterity is increased by 1. You do not suffer any Stress while transformed.

  • Attribute bonuses from multiple sources do not stack. Instead the highest bonus is used.

Ring of Two Minds

Created and held by Danny Warrens.
A silver ring with an inlayed pink opal. It's swirling, spiraling design on both the metal and stone portions implies it's power over both minds and reality

The ring transmogrifies itself into a firearm. The firearm itself is pulsing, fleshy and clearly a living creature, despite it still holding the form of a revolver. This process happens near instantly, although the actual process involves the shifting of psychic energies from one form to another. The bullets fired are made of hardened psychic energies, making them deadly even despite their mental origins.

Danny has been around both guns and her own psychic abilities for long enough that she can channel these dual understandings into the Ring of Two Minds. The ring itself is an artifact Danny found via thrift shopping, the item forlorn from lack of understanding on it's true power. Danny debates on the origin and nature of the ring, but understands she will grasp such things...In time

This Artifact can be used as a handgun. It is roughly the same size as a handgun but can be collapsed into a signet ring and concealed. Collapsing or expanding it costs a Quick Action.

  • Virtuoso's Vessel: When using this Device for its primary purpose, you always roll a minimum of 8 dice. Excludes Effect activation rolls.

Badge
