This Artifact allows you to create an environmental hazard.
Used by Nik Anderson, Created by Novu.
On Legendary Artifact Multipurpose data manipulator.
( During activation, it is obvious the environmental effect is issuing forth from you. You must actively and obviously be using up rechargable lithium battery. 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.)

Loaded with a full battery, the manipulator is held up in the air and activated. A light haze of static fills the air in the zone as accelerated entropy eats away at everything.

A directed beam of energy can cause a lot of damage in a short amount of time. A bigger field of entropy can cause just as much damage, you just have to give it some more time.


Expend a point of Battery and spend an Action. Select a Location within 60 feet of you. Choose a 3-D shape that will define the borders of your Effect. You must use up rechargable lithium battery in order to activate this Effect. You must make a Trauma roll when you use this Effect. Its Difficulty cannot be reduced by any means. If you fail or Botch, you receive one Mind Damage and a new Trauma.

You create a zone of entropy in the chosen shape, originating at the chosen Location, with a radius of 60 feet. and lasting for 5 minutes. The area inside your zone is affected in any number of the following ways:

  • Danger Zone: The zone contains entropy. The area is extremely inhospitable. At the end of each Round, everyone in the zone must roll for Acute Exposure.
  • Slippery: All movement distances are halved within the zone. Anyone who wishes to move further than their Free Movement within a Round must roll Dexterity + Athletics. If they fail, their movement is limited to their Free Movement and they fall down.
The zone expands immediately to its full size from the chosen Location, but will be stopped from spreading in a particular direction by any barriers or cover, and can only fit through openings large enough to fit a grown adult. If a new opening appears while the Effect is still active, it will finish spreading in that direction.

You may end this Effect prematurely as a Free Action.

  • If you select a location at the edge of your range, you will be just outside the zone once the Effect is activated
  • 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.

Exert your Mind and spend 30 seconds to trap a region of any shape that contains your current location and fits entirely within 60 feet of you. This trap lasts one day or until triggered or disarmed. This Effect cannot be used unless there is a corpse in its initial radius. Choose a type of being that could trigger the trap.

The trap looks like A perfectly silent, alien eyeball with a snowflake pupil. Only those who have seen this trap before can identify it as a trap. Anyone who is aware of the trap may intuitively avoid or destroy it.

When setting the trap, specify the condition under which it will trigger. The trap can trigger against a target in the trapped region.

You create a hemispherical dome of Fractal Shaped Frost originating at the trap, with a radius of 60 feet, and lasting for 5 minutes. The area inside your zone is affected in any number of the following ways:

The zone expands immediately to its full size from the trap, but will be stopped from spreading in a particular direction by any barriers or cover, and can only fit through openings large enough to fit a grown adult. If a new opening appears while the Effect is still active, it will finish spreading in that direction.

  • If you select a location at the edge of your range, you will be just outside the zone once the Effect is activated
  • Multiple traps cannot be placed in the exact same location or be triggered by the same single Action. Nor can one trap triggering cause another to trigger.
  • Trap can only be spotted by someone who has witnessed this particular trap before, has been informed, or possesses relevant supernatural abilities. They must achieve an Outcome of 4 or higher on a Perception + Alertness roll to do so.
  • The trap's triggering condition, once set, is final. The trap cannot be manually triggered or made to fire on a selected target at will.
