The constant channeling of ice spirits has permanently changed Angus' body. His body feels constantly sub-zero and he has become numb to physical trauma. Angus' veins have become partially frozen as a result, although no ill effects come from this. His brain is chilled slowing his perception of time slightly and granting him clarity at all times. As his affinity with ice increases, the more the spirits take... so far? just his ring finger on his left hand, But its getting worse.

Raising the slice of pizza to his face in both hands in a particularly murine fashion, Luci gnaws his way through the strange edible necklace that he typically only nibbles at in order to survive.
Eventually finishing the slice after a minute, tentacles at once begin to sprout their way from under his shoulder-blades and coil around him in a fashion that has grown comforting as of late, growing in number until enwreathing him fully in an almost swaddling fashion — leaving only his serene and dozing expression visible.
When after quite some time he finally decides to leave his warm and familiar embrace, a half dozen cherubim swarm around the empty necklace, standing only 4 inches tall and adorned in old Roman garb as Lares reattach tiny globules of dough and sauce to the thread: one piece at a time by hand.
I left the face open on the cocoon since from a visual standpoint I pictured it as looking better and it also better explains being able to perceive his environment. Please do not blast him in the face with a flamethrower
(Cocoon stuff is probably normally done with transparent forcefield energy stuff, so just explain the face part as that if needed)
Original thought was for fairies to be rebuilding the pizza, but Contract fey would sooner kill and eat an unattended child than help him in any way, so based it on old Roman house spirits since he has Italian heritage and those are probably less evil
You gain the following benefits as long as you are wearing this Artifact.
You no longer require any food, water, or air in order to survive. You no longer age naturally, and supernatural attempts to age you fail. Any roll to resist an Effect dependent on any affected requirement automatically succeeds.
You may spend one minute entering a state of hibernation, during which you are inanimate and unaffected by any requirements for life. You may still perceive the outside world and may spend 3 Rounds "waking up" to end it. While cocooned you can take a maximum of 1 Damage from any attack, and are impervious to environmental conditions.
A blade no longer hits with heavy breaths, but the soothing resolve of a warrior guided by a path of controlled chaos. No longer do you fight, but respond to the threat with equal ferocity. The Battle may be quick, but the war is won through time.
Reborn, anew, their figure returns as the whispers of Gwyn speak to whom conducted the ritual. Whispers of fate, the future, the past and duty. The flames collect under this Nightsky, turning the moon a brilliant red as spindles of green lower to the forming figure of flames. The Seal broken, these spindles caress her body and turn to gold, ensnaring her in this current reality once more. With no memory of the former iteration, but with memory of what must be done.
The Ritual calls for the Shield to be made a Sword, pierced into a bonfire under a Crescent night's sky.

The overlapping muscle groups are most apparent in his hands, the joints crudely deformed from the constant muscle tension. Even purposefully relaxing a specific muscle group can result in sudden impacts or swings of force from the taught opposite-pulling muscle groups. It's almost like his muscles are spring loaded. He pulls back and takes traditional swings often because he likes the style, but it's just as easy to fling a rock like a trigger shrimp, straight on. It's not talent. It's barely aim. It's E=mc2, and intense force.

Standard issue in the Future Soldier's home time, the Personal Shield Generator (PSG) projects a protective energy barrier around the body. It absorbs damage far better than traditional armor, but its battery is quickly drained. When depleted, the PSG must spend a few seconds recharging.
