Artefact's
The history of the artefact's date back to at least two millennia, when the first sect of Individuals established the Gnostica Patesco. The Gnostica Patesco took elements from different faiths and beliefs and constructed what they believed to be the most sacred belief around a very simple, yet esoteric, understanding of life, the universe, and the world around us.
The true nature of the artifacts are not known. The simple nature of how they came to harness unique abilities and traits has been lost over the ages, yet many ideas and theories have been conjured.
The artifacts, primarily, were used during ceremonies and rites.

Item | Power | Current Holder |
Hand Mirror | Ability to glimpse the past and future. Originally was part of a larger mirror, but the hand mirror is all that remains following the great raid on Temple Verdi. Often used during weddings, christenings, and other such ceremonies, the mirror was also used when Individuals attempted to communicate with God. | Unknown |
Jars | Allows for an individual’s soul to be held and passed on into another body in conjunction with the Knife. Following the sacrifice of an elder oracle in the form of a child was used to channel the souls during ceremonies. | Unknown |
Knife | Anyone stabbed with the Knife would be able to have their souls transferred into another body via conjunction with the Jars. Elder Individuals of the Gnostica Patesco were required to sacrifice themselves in order to preserve what they knew and understood. Their souls were stored in jars and were channeled through an oracle during times of despair. | Unknown |
The Oracle’s Necklace | Immortality. Once away from the bearer's hands and following years of use, the bearer will age a year within the span of a day. | Analora |
Objects
Objects are items made by past Individuals (Knowledge Bearers). Created from their blood and pieces of artefacts, the Objects hold supernatural powers when used. The strength, use, and power of an object vary, however Object Bearers all share the same consequences following their use.
Objects are very sought after. People have spent their fortunes and lost their lives in the feeble attempt of gaining an object. There are Sects and Orders that collect objects for their own personal gain and understanding.
Once an Object is made and in use, it automatically links itself with other Objects and their Bearers. Thus said, the objects can be used together, in combination, under various circumstances.
