===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.
