Cherrythumb What is lost, is rebuilt.

This Artifact grants you an extra appendage.
Used by Felix Law, Created by MackAndSneeze.
On Legendary Artifact Vein.

A masterfully-crafted prosthetic arm. Hundreds of fibrous machines with varying degrees of complexity are encased in a precisely-carved shell of cherry wood. Depending on the nature of its actions, the arm vents bursts of steam, fires yellow sparks or vibrates like a motor.

Near-futuristic mechanical bonds link the shoulder to the body, while the bicep houses a series of motors that govern the movements of the forearm. Coolant is vented at the wrist in short bursts of steam, and the digits flex noiselessly, controlled by a second series of motors in the knuckles.

In addition to fully replicating the functions of a normal arm, a ring of dynamic pins in the wrist can launch the (detachable) hand at a moment's notice, and recoil the connecting cables just as quickly. Furthermore, each digit on the hand is equipped with a set of silver electrodes that can administer a powerful electric shock when triggered.

The outer casing of wood is fully pressure-treated and finished with fire-retardant wax for an extra degree of protection


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

You gain an additional limb that functions as a standard human arm and hand.

Each additional limb you posses can take one Quick Action per Round without incurring a -2 dice penalty to your main Action. Any Battle Scars that affect or remove your additional limb will heal in a single week.

Your extra appendage can be used to attack in exactly the same manner as a handheld stun gun.

Your extra appendage can stretch to reach an additional 30 feet.

Your extra appendage is not connected to your nervous or circulatory systems, and you will not take damage if it is hit by an attack or destroyed.

  • You may stretch or retract your limbs once per Round on your Initiative.

(This is part of a rework that I am doing with Len to change her theme from disciple of Aries to grim reaper).

Len has given questioned her life, and decisions. Her experience has shown her that when on your own, you need to be more clever, and subtle than the god of war. So she turned to the other God she has made many patronages to. The God of Death.

You gain the following benefits at all times.

You are permanently and visibly transformed: Pale human, with deep black hair, and deep circles under her eyes. You are considered to be a Sapient, Non-Living being when targeted. Your Dexterity is increased by 1 and your Perception is increased by 1.

Your Injuries no longer degrade with time. You do not age naturally, and supernatural attempts to age you fail.

Possession of this Power grants the following Battle Scar: Face of death: Len looks pale, and her color isn't right. She suffers the disfigured penalty (+1 difficulty social rolls).

The Severity of any Injury caused by Fire is increased by 2.

  • You must still perform some equivalent of eating, sleeping, and drinking unless other Effects allow you to ignore that requirement.
  • The increase in Injury Severity stacks with any similar effects, such as the Silver Bullets drawback on Regeneration.
  • Attribute bonuses from multiple sources do not stack. Instead the highest bonus is used.

You gain the following benefits at all times. You must actively and obviously be using Gold and Moonstone Bracelet to gain the benefits of this Effect.

You have 4 Armor, which reduces incoming damage from all sources of physical attack except Iron. Armor from multiple sources does not stack. This Armor cannot be circumvented with Called Shots.

Any Injury received from Damage that was reduced by this Armor is considered makeshift stabilized and will not degrade further. Any Battle Scar received from such an Injury is reduced by 1 level to a minimum of a Minor Battle Scar.

When you take Damage from a source which is within 5 feet, deal back as much Damage as your Armor prevented.

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

You and everything you are carrying is obscured in one of the following manners. You may Spend an Action to change the way in which you're concealed.

  • Arcane: You are partially obscured from being noticed by all senses, natural and supernatural. All attempts to notice you are rolled at -3 dice. Attempts to recall identifying information about you require a Mind roll at Difficulty 8.
  • Smell and taste: You are completely obscured from smell and taste. You do not leave scent trails while this Effect is active. All attempts to detect you via smell or taste fail. Attempts via other senses where smell or taste would assist are rolled at -2 dice.

While this Effect is active, any Effect that would obscure you or your equipment specifically from other, additional senses fails automatically.

If someone discovers you, this Effect will not help you hide from them for the next minute. Activating a targeted or obvious Effect, attacking, or being Injured ends the Effect. When the Effect ends, it is disabled for one minute.

You may turn this Effect on and off at will during its duration.

  • You may only switch this Effect on or off once per Round on your initiative as a Free Action.

If, while you are unconscious, your wound level rises above your rating in Body + Charisma, or if you take an Injury with Severity greater than your rating in Charisma, you die.
