the bulbous nodes placed just above the grip, which contain integrated power cells, and the articulated
blade heads that open like the petals of a flower to reveal a narrow spigot of red jade.
On their own, fire lances are simply expensive spears. Each lance holds 20 motes in its battery, however,

pools may attune the spears for a cost of two motes, after which they may choose to power them directly
from their own reserves.

It is very powerful, and qualifies for Artifact 4. Wielding this power over all circles of sorcery is unbelievable, not
to mention the spells a character might traipse around with ready to set off. It should definitely be Artifact 5. Even
with all this power flying around, the cords’ enchantments are tempered somewhat by the fact that the character
must time his action precisely.

Charge: For a reflexive cost of one mote, the staff's blade glows a dim blue. Whenever it next strikes a target, these banked energies erupt in a surge of lightning, increasing the strike's raw damage by +4L and immediately setting any flammable inanimate target alight.

Sorcery-Catching Glove

Artifact ●●●○○

This sorcery-capturing glove is woven from white, green, red, black, blue and yellow jade and requires no essence commitment. It can capture Terrestrial Circle sorcery and can hold no more than three spells at a time.

When the character is the target or in the path of a spell, he may use a miscellaneous action to capture with the palm of his gloved hand. Essence channeled into the spell disappears into the glove in a dwindling display of power. Capturing a spell requires that the character be able to take an action on the tick that the spell is released and spend temporary Willpower equal to the spell’s circle (one for Terrestrial).

Releasing a spell is a miscellaneous action. The character must again spend Willpower equal to the spell’s circle (one for Terrestrial) in order to channel the energies he is releasing. Spells with multiple versions take the shape intended when originally cast when released. The glove can also capture necromantic spells of the appropriate circles (see The White and Black Treatises for necromancy). Capturing and redirecting Emerald Circle sorcery is very useful, but not overwhelming, and it costs a significant resource (Willpower). It is Artifact 3—about as useful as Emerald Circle Countermagic.

Memory Stone

Manse ●○○○○

The character who carries this iridescent white, cubical hearthstone will never forget anything. Every image or incident, from a face seen in a crowd last week, to the contents of a treaty that he hurriedly read before being chased off by guards, will be remembered in perfect and exact detail. The wearer’s player can even make (Perception + Awareness) rolls after the fact for his character to notice further details about an event. Although this hearthstone does not allow the wearer to learn Abilities, Charms or spells any faster or easier, the wearer could read an ancient 1,000-page tome and perfectly remember every word and illustration 50 years later. These unnaturally sharp memories begin to fade to normal memories if the character ceases to be attuned to this stone for more than one day.
