Stone Falcon
The stone falcon is a rather large and heavy object, measuring
about a half meter in height and weighing in at just over 50kg. It’s initial
color is sorta off-white, but you can change it to any color you want simply
by hosing it down with your choice of Krylon.
When a sufficient amount of bird seed is placed within 2 feet of
the falcon it will instantly morph into the magnificent creature the statue
was modeled after. When the falcon is finished with its meal, the individual
who activated it is permitted to request that the bird fly to a single
destination. After pondering the request momentarily, the bird will take
flight, immediately return to its stone state after traveling no more than
20 meters, and crash dramatically to the ground, most likely shattering
into 20 or 30 itty bitty pieces.
Box Of Iron Termites
While the Box Of Iron Termites is barely larger than your
average cigarette box, it weighs nearly 25 kilograms and has a damage code
of STR+2S, should anybody decide to use it as a throwing weapon.
The box will only open after a person has fiddled with the lock for a minimum
of 1/2 hour and emitted no less than 10 semi-severe snippets of profanity.
Once opened, the box will expose 20 individual compartments, each containing
a two centimeter long termite molded entirely from iron.
The termites contained within are completely sentient and have
the equivalent of a 4 year college education. Other than being pretty good
conversationalists, these iron insects are completely useless. They will
never come out of the box or assist the box opener in any way, shape, or
form. After the passing of 48 hours, the termites will eat the box itself
and then vanish into thin air, leaving behind a small, unintelligible note
that says, simply: “I wish I was in Phoenix”.
Pair
Of Drama Masks
The Drama Masks artifact consists of a pair of pewter faces
about .1 meters across, each sporting either a happy or sad expression.
The Drama Masks can only be activated by taking them to a theatrical
production that has been on Broadway for a minimum of five seasons. At
the end of the show the masks will become animated. The happy mask will
scream out in utter elation at everything it sees, including gunfights
or the sight of a puppy getting hit by a car. The sad face will begin weeping
prolifically and occasionally ponder the feasibility of killing itself.
The individual who activated the masks will be stuck with them for exactly
1 week. Even if he or she runs the masks through a blast furnace, they
will simply reappear at the most inopportune moment the GM can think of.
After 1 week, the masks will simply turn into a pair of ordinary buttermilk
pancakes. |
