Artifacts

[Ormagon]

Cornelius has spent 3 reward points on what, through roleplaying, has been deemed an artifact--His right hand. It currently provides the following special abilities:(Note: The powers have increased due to him spending 11 more points on it. Total:14)

When holding mad science devices, he can channel up to 15 MP of power into the device as if it had an extra battery. He can do this 3 times per day.

+6 bonus to distribute rolls made to build devices using the Scientist facet, once per day.

+2 to attack rolls made with Energy Cannon devices, and +3 to their
damage(Think Megaman's buster cannon or Samus Aran's gun).

Cornelius can now also enter a "Hyper-caffienated" state (This is Riley's hand after all) While in this state he gains an additional action for every round. After 1 minute, he has a "Caffiene Crash" in which he is unable to preform any action, and looses 1/2 his total mp and 1/4 his total hp.

By spending additional Reward points, he can develop these, and possibly other special abilities.

[Teddy]

Sin has spent 4 RP for Teddy's new body.

Artifact: Organic Simulation Body.
It's an inorganic body that grants the user the ability to feel, touch, taste, see, smell, breath, and do just about anything a normal organic life form can do. The body's skin is soft and warm, much like a humans. It's blood is violet and is made up of lubricants, fuel, and distribution nano bots. There is also a small floating camera like device that fallows the body around so it can record all the new organic data it sees in a third person view, it than uploads the new data into the body. The camera pod will not change if the body changes so the newly changed body can use the pod to save the data. The body has two modes. Speed mode and Power mode. Both modes are 4 ft. tall and look like a cute robotic Neko. Speed is 100 lb. Power is 200 lb. The modes can be beemed in, but it takes a full round to switch.

Speed Mode: the skin is light blue with darker blue armor, this cover has Extra Run Speed. (Looks like this: http://sin-r.deviantart.com/art/Blueberry-79671631 )

Power Mode: the skin is light red with dark red heavier armor, this cover has 1-10 armor defense and Super Strong. (Looks like this: http://sin-r.deviantart.com/art/Raspberry-80365107 )

As Instructed I'm BUMPING this, with a highlighted portion for emphasis...

Reward points can also be used to create Artifacts. First off, if you plan on the artifact being a weapon or armor, you must also spend enough reward points to cover the cost of its damage or defense. You can't spend any of your own money on the cost of an artifact, you have to spend reward points, at a rate of 1 per $200. The GMs can disallow you from making an artifact that is far too powerful for the current level of play, and you're going to want to discuss the artifact with me for sure. Magical effects work as if the artifact has enough mage facets to cast a single spell and the amount of "mp" the spell has toward an ability is equal to 10xthe number of reward points spent on that ability. Permanent effects that work like advantages cost a number of reward points equal to the cost of the advantage. You can reduce the cost of an ability by adding disadvantages to it, again this will have to be discussed with the GM. Stat bonuses can be given, but these are expensive if they're permanent.

Also I'll clarify something...

If you use RP on an preexisting non-artifact weapon or armor, as per the rules, you must pay RP for the existing damage or damage absorption/facet access too.

As far as I'm concerned, I have no reason not to allow people to spend RPs on making a non-magical item into a magical item without re-buying the weapon with RPs. In the event that it was REQUIRED that such was done, the character would receive a reimbursement of the value of the item originally bought. Otherwise it would be unfair in that the character would end up paying for the same item twice, with no additional bonuses.

[Mitchell]

We'll bring it up with Wraith before forcing anyone who accidentially went against this rule to rebuy/reduce their weapons, but considering how powerful some of the artifacts have gotten...

[Malhavoc Shade]

From what Wraith told me when I bought the RPs the other night, he had no problems with my actions. If it turns out I made an oopsie then I'll toss in the extra RPs needed. Also Neimad, I now know what you meant in your PM. Disregard my response. I'll ask Wraith personally.

[Ron-ko]

*Bump* Orchid is upgrading her AIRDs... changes made in the entry on page 1.

[Neimad the I'S]

Well, here's Vivi's new toy... or toys depending on how you look at it... has already been approved...

The Ancient Katana: Chi Katana no Kassatsujizai

The Sword-
Damage- 1-15
Special Effect- Light Diffusion Aura- The opponent's defense roll verses this weapon is given a -2, but this effect cannot cause the roll to fall below 0, and takes double the turns to retrieve if it is disarmed/dropped (this applies to anyone who retrieves it).
Alt. Special Effect- Choice to Preserve Life: Safeguard Mirage- Wielder gains a +2 bonus to def instead of lowering opponents defense, but is otherwise the same.

The Sheath-
Damage- 1-5
Special Effect- Paralyzing Harmonic Aura- Upon a successful strike with this weapon the opponent is -2 to attack rolls for one turn, this effect doesn't stack with itself but can be kept up with successful consecutive strikes and cannot cause the rolls to fall below 0, also this effect occurs for one turn upon retrieval after being disarmed/dropped (this applies to anyone who retrieves it)
Alt. Special Effect- Choice to Grant Death: Strike Echoing- Wielder gains a +2 to att when unsuccessfully attacked by opponent for one turn instead of lowering opponents attack on strike. but is otherwise the same.

Alternate effect notes: Only one item can have an alternate used at a time, so there are three usage styles: Normal, Life (alt sword, sheath normal), and Death (alt sheath, sword normal). Also, the alternate special effects for the sword or sheath can only be selected when being drawn/special attack is used, which means to switch requires the sword be sheathed then drawn again or the attack used.

Special Attack: The Razor's Edge Between Life and Death-
Damage- 1-20
Special Effects- 20 armor reduction, +2 Att, and the attack cannot critical (similar to having slow-witted, no follow-through, or itchy trigger finger)
Attack Notes- this is a battojutsu attack (draw attack) but still must be readied before use, which takes two hand actions and a move action (gripping sword and sheath while taking a stance). Also this attack is only available if the sword is sheathed and to sheath the sword takes all actions for two rounds.

Additional notes: The sword and sheath individual effects only apply when separate, since their opposing natures balance out when together. Their opposing natures are also the reason the battojutsu attack is possible and why sheathing takes more time, since they basically 'repel' each other.

Artifact total cost- 11 RP
Sword's effect- 2 RP
Sheath's effect- 2 RP
Special attack- 3 RP (reduced from 5 due to negatives)
Artifact damage- 2 RP
Added alternate effects- 2RP

((And it turns out 'tsurugi' meant a Japanese blade similar to a Jian, so now it's the 'earth blade of the power of life and death'... I hope ^-^;;))

[Gun Kitty and Friend]

This is an addendum to Zyon's artifact, Foenix Gun Arm as well as introducing Foenix as a real companion...

Standby Mode- Changes Foenix from an artifact to a companion, this takes all actions for a round from both Zyon and Foenix to enable or disable and requires that both be alive and next to each other in order to work. While in this mode, Foenix is a 'companion' with a single racial level.

Foenix 'Ordnance Angel' Emollayt the companion
Race: Level 1 Spirit
Stats: HP 6 MP 12, Att 0+0, Def 1+1, Mag 1+3, Soc 0+2
Stances: Attack- Precise, Defense- Dodge
Advantages: Odd-Sized (Small1)
Disadvantages: Chaotic Magic, Big Softy, Coward, Curious, Elemental Weakness- Purity & Body
Ability: Intangibility

Total RP cost- 3 RP
1 RP for the mode to allow companion
1 RP for the level 1 companion
1 RP for the advantage 'Odd-Sized'

Note: This doesn't affect her weapon forms functions not specified here, only add a new 'special' mode, so 'character' rolls can only be done while in companion form while only after fully switching back to weapon form can the gun arm be summoned.

[Caesius]

Sirius is now just a sentient item. (And is restyled into a gold bangle instead of a glove.) So he can still talk, but that's it.

And I get a 2RP refund.

[Neimad the I'S]

Well... here's a simple artifact for Uratino:

Empowered Briault:
4 levels of Mage facet access (1 RP)
+2 Mag (1 RP)

Approved by Mal and Ilushia.

[willK]

Ive setup a new sword for Willy, which has been approved by Digara.

"Sword of the Wind Dragon"

1-10 Normal + 1-10 Wind
+1 Atk, +1 Def on round that Sword has been Drawn
Elemental Specialization(Wind)
Obsession: Willy’s Sword of the Wind Dragon
If wielded by someone other than Willy who has not gotten premission from him to use it, Sword is a 1-10 Katana with no abilities

at the cost of 3Rp(starting cost)
(2/28/10:Reditied as per new RP cap)

[Kiana Wolf]

Just a simple artifact. (Well, a combination of two, really.)

First off, my magical clothes that give: +1 Att, +1 Def, +2 Mag. Not fantastic, but it's combined with my Amethyst Gemstone, it gets three distinct stat boosts, by way of three forms:

Standard, which is the same as the clothes originally: +1 Att, +1 Def, +2 Mag.
Battle: +2 Att, +2 Def.
Control: +2 Mag, +2 Soc.

Changing form takes one hand action and I can't change form is I don't have the gemstone. If the gemstone is lost/stolen, I'm stuck in the form I'm currently in!

EDIT: Okay, I'm finally putting into affect a little tweak here... I've been meaning to do it for a while now but never had the chance. The stat boost now comes from the gem itself. Form shift can be done regardless of what I'm wearing. (The change in appearance it just an roleplaying thing anyway...)
