===The Nameless Weapon (Artifact 3)===
''Starmetal bladed rope, Spd 4, Acc +5, Dmg +8L, Def -2, rate 4 (including Starmetal bonus)''<br>
''As clinch enhancer: Spd 5, Acc +4, Dmg +5L (P), Def -3, rate 1 -- 8m to attune for non Sidereals''<br>
There are no great legends attached to this unassuming weapon, no histories recorded even in the endless libraries of Yu-Shan. It is in fact not even much to look at - a simple piece of blackened rope of varying length without any hint of its magical nature or the threat it poses. And indeed only an Exalted master of the arts martial can coax more from it, awaken the subtle threads of Starmetal woven into its design. In the hands of such a master despite its humble appearance it becomes a weapon no less dangerous than a daiklave. This is accomplished by taking on the respective destinies of other kinds of weapons at the moment of impact - a hammer to deliver blunt trauma despite it's lightness, the destiny of a blade to cut without an edge or that of a spear to pierce armor without a point. It is a strange sight indeed seeing this weapon employed.<br>
One benefit of this peculiar modus operandi to those engaging in subtle operations is that the wounds left by it can point to any kind of weapon its wielder can imagine. It can even kill without leaving any mark at all. Who would suspect foul play when there are no signs of a violent death and who would halt the man carrying a rope when a murder victim was obviously cut by a heavy blade? The greatest power of the Nameless Weapon however, one that isn't immediately obvious yet particularly dangerous, is that those slain by it are destroyed entirely, just as if the Ghost-Eating Technique had been used on them (though with none of the other benefits of that Charm). <br>
Finally it can also be used in the way its appearance suggests, in which case it follows the intent of its user almost as if alive, changing its length seemingly without limit and even moving on its own, granting its wielder three automatic successes on every non-combat action for which a rope is of use.
===Harness of Infinite Utility (Artifact 4)===
''Attunement: 8m (for Solars), Repair: 1''<br>
While many in the First Age had the resources to keep and maintain an Armor of the Unseen Assassin, not every Night Caste was so inclined. There is something to be said for subtlety and flexibility over the sheer power of a full magitech powersuit. In its complete form the Harness of Infinite Utility looks like a harness of black cloth inscribed with orichalkum designs and bracers of similar design. Worn under the right clothes it is hardly noticeable. The Harness' features are as follows:<br>
'''Hearthstone Bracers:''' Incorporated into the overall design are a pair of bracers, each with a hearthstone slot. This provides the usual benefits of the common orichalkum version, a +3 dice bonus to Dodge and +2 to damage.<br>
'''Essence Weave*:''' With but a thought the Exalt can weave any sort of clothing he can imagine from ambient Essence, from rags to royal robes, from waterproof suits to the most exotic of camouflage clothing. The magical properties of this weave increases the bonus to Stealth or Larceny to +4 (instead of the usual +2 for perfect equipment). By temporarily increasing the output of the Harness' Essence projectors the Exalt can strengthen the weave to provide a +7L/5B soak against a single attack by reflexively spending 1m.<br>
'''Elsewhere Access Points*:''' Virtual pockets into elsewhere provide sufficient storage space to carry up to a ton of assorted items safely out of reach of the world provided the objects could actually fit through a pocket opening no larger than a foot across. These pockets are available only to the attuned bearer of the Harness. Retrieving an object from Elsewhere is a Miscellaneous (Speed 5, DV -1) action.<br>
'''Perceptual Augmentation*:''' Bands of pure black cloth without adornment can be worn over the eyes or around the ears to shift the Exalt's perception into the spectra of pure Essence, allowing him to see or hear through darkness, fog and light obstructions without penalty and perceive immaterial phenomena like dematerialized spirits and Charm effects (similar to All-Encompassing Sorcerer's Sight).<br>
'''Upkeep:''' Maintenance is required every 100 hours of use; every 50 missed hours randomly disables one of the powers marked with an asterisk.
