Bright Eyes In Dark Trees [Thread Item]
Posted: Tue Feb 23, 2021 5:26 am
I'm beginning to put together some thread items for my PCs and am looking for feedback. This item is for a windling thief, and I wanted to emphasize the weirdness of magic, and reinforce our campaign's theme of Namegivers working together.
Bright Eyes In Dark Trees
Maximum Threads: 2
Mystic Defense: 12
Legend Point Cost: Journeyman
This hooded cloak is made of luxurious black fur, short, soft, and warm. The inner lining is burgundy silk with embroidered designs, and seems to have been cut from a larger garment and stitched into the cloak. There is a bronze clasp that is slightly larger than one would expect. The cloak is sized for a windling; the embroidery is of a style that was once popular in Landis; the clasp is of orkish design.
Without a thread attached, the cloak has Physical Armor of 3 and Mystic Armor of 1.
Thread Rank One
Key Knowledge: The owner must learn the cloak’s Name.
Effect: The owner gains +1 rank to Stealthy Stride.
Thread Rank Two
Effect: The owner gains +1 rank to Astral Sight.
Thread Rank Three
Key Knowledge: The owner must learn what type of creature the fur of the cloak is from, and where those creatures are from. (Crojen of the Servos Jungle)
Effect: The owner gains +2 ranks to Stealthy Stride.
Thread Rank Four
Effect: The cloak has Mystic Armor of 2.
Thread Rank Five
Key Knowledge: The owner must learn the name and race of the cloak’s creator, and who they made it for.
Effect: If using Astral Sight while unobserved, the Astral Sight talent costs 0 Strain; but there is a sense that something else is peering back at the owner.
Thread Rank Six
Effect: For 1 Strain, the owner gains a +3 bonus to an Initiative test. This can be used once per round.
