    • Artifact •••••
  • Adapteus Astartes Robe
  • Healing Orchid (Artifact ••)
    • While humans made use of the potent healing properties of the blue and purple life flowers (see Scavenger Sons, p. 33), the Dragon Kings created the rare and potent healing orchid. This plant is designed to grown on living flesh and can be used by Dragon Kings, mortal humans and Exalts. Dragon Kings and Exalts must commit 4 motes of Essence to keep this plant healthy. However, mortal humans must instead eat three times as much food as normal whenever this plant is actively helping healing.
    • Normally planted on the arm of the wearer, this plant is a finger-thick vine that encircles the wearer’s arm, bearing several dozen thumb sized leaves and half a dozen small emerald-green flowers. This plant allows the wearer to heal far faster than normal. Exalts wearing this flower heal one level of bash damage per hour or one level of lethal damage every three hours. This flower also allows Exalts or Dragon Kings to roll two additional dice to resist poison, disease or infection. Unexalted humans and Dragon Kings who wear this flower must have stamina of at least 4 to support the plant, but it allows them to resist infection and to heal both bashing and lethal damage as speedily as an Exalt’s normal healing rate. So long as the wearer is alive, the plant will survive and function normally, although it will lose its flowers in extremely cold climates.
  • Breather Plant (Artifact •)
    • This allows Lumusi to safely breathe underwater and/or gaseous toxins. This allows the Astartes to quickly subdue most troublemakers with sleep grenades made by the Dragon Kings. Incidentally it also makes smothering the Astartes next to impossible as the plants are directly connected to their lungs.
  • Green Eyes (Artifact •)
    • These translucent cylindrical objects are actually tiny plants, like many pieces of Dragon King Equipment. If placed onto the eyes of a living creature, they spread out very thinly, covering the entire eye in short order. For 6 hours after allowing the plant to cover his eyes, the wearer is effectively blinded. During this time, the buds are acclimating themselves to the peculiarities of their wearer and adapting their structure to provide him the maximum benefit. After this adaptation period has passed, the plants turn clear from the inside, but appear a dark green in color from the outside, making the wearer’s entire eyeball a deep jade green.
    • The plant grants the wearer clarity of vision that enables him to see details 100 yards distant without difficulty, as well as adding one automatic success to any Awareness rolls. These benefits do not add to those granted by Awareness Charms, but neither do they interfere with those that grant benefits greater than those afforded by the green eyes.
    • The Plant also allows the wearer to see better in darkness. Allowing the wearer to see starlit night as bright morning, this ability however does not allow the wearer to see in perfect darkness. It only amplifies existing light, and the wearer’s eyes are reflective in the dark just like nocturnal animals.
    • Green eyes are usually found in small globular containers throughout Rathess. They require 1 mote of Essence per day from their wearer to operate. Otherwise, they revert to an inert state and fall from wearer’s eyes.
