It is a totem that was used by a long dead Polynesian tribe and if used nowadays causes the owner to fall into a fit of uncontrollable rage.

Looks good, that actually gives me an idea for a sword Artefact, perhaps forged by the same man. When you get a chance could you clear up the typos and whatnot, Parc?

That will be fine, but i would rather, it gives something as well instead of simply turing them into raging maniacs. Unless you could say, the totem is possessed or the like by the dead spirits of the tribe and that is what turned the Totem into what it is now. It is up to you to do what you want, but Any Artefact like that would have been destroyed instead of simply contained.

Maybe the totem could summon the ghost of a dead warrior from the tribe to do your bidding. But if the user uses it for a long period of time it drives them insane.

Here are the apps as promised.

Major Magical Family App:
Family Name: Grey
Family Logo/Sigil:
Image

Country of Origin: Ancient Greece (now spread throughout Western Europe)
Family Head: Jonathan Grey, head of the main branch of the family
Notable Members: Rachel Grey (nee Summers), wife of Jonathan; Albert Grey, eldest son of Jonathan; Constantin Grey, head of the second branch of the family- resentful of the control his brother Jonathan has; and a few more that will develop over time
Family Bloodline: Elemental, descended from the phoenix
Family Magic: Elemental- Fire Manipulation
Family History: Having originated in Ancient Greece many centuries ago between the phoenix and an ordinary human, the Grey family has been through a lot over the years. Though not originally called the Grey family, they gained that name while living in 16th Century England, they maintained a mostly pure bloodline throughout and were one of the most influential families of years passed. A conflict between the two major branches of the family raged across many centuries- one mainly resided in France and the other in England, this provided tensions aplenty during the Hundred Years War; eventually after years of bloody combat the English branch won out and the name Grey was taken by the whole family and the French side relegated to serving the English. That was before the Stagnation, the family... well, stagnated during that period and lost many of its major abilities and weakened greatly. Then their power awakened again (and rose like a phoenix, you might say) with Jonathan Grey, the most powerful member of the family for many decades, maybe even centuries, and a very Machiavellian character to boot. Now they focus on consolidating their power and retrieve those that have been stolen from them (they believe)
Notable Magics:
  • Flight
  • Ability to take the form of a phoenix (extremely rare- limited to a small, almost extinct branch of the family)
  • Resurrection (unique to a single, ancient, member of the family)





WB Artefact App:
Artefact Name: Seal of Solomon
Appearance:
Image

Type: Artefact
Mass produced?: No- wholly unique
Effect: Gives the wearer the ability to control demons, spirits and talk to animals
Artefact history: According to legend, the ring was given to King Solomon by God, to be used by the king during his lifetime. It was lost with the destruction of the First Temple, but later found during Roman times. The ring was passed along from person to person until it was again lost somewhere in France during the 18th Century, where it is currently located, waiting to be found
Country/Mythology of origin: Israel/Abrahamic
Enhance-able: Yes, by those with powers relating to death or spirit- or those descended from Solomon himself; also very difficult to control by those without similar powers
Clues: An increase in spiritual and demon activity around it



WB Artefact App:
Artefact Name: Philosopher's stone
Appearance:
Image

Type: Magic Tool
Mass produced?: Rare, extremely difficult to make, but a number of these exist in the world
Effect: Able to turn base metals into gold or silver and extend one's life and rejuvenate the bodies of users
Artefact history: The original stones and recipes were made during the era or the Ancient Greeks, most of the recipes were lost until their rediscovery during the Renaissance, were a number were made. The making of these have dropped off over the years, but a number still exist.
Country/Mythology of origin: Ancient Greece, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance
Enhance-able: No
Clues: N/A



WB Artefact App:
Artefact Name: Omamori
Appearance:
Image
They come in a wide variety of colours and different text dedicated to different kami

Type: Magic Tool
Mass produced?: Yes
Effect: Provide luck or protection depending on the god it offers worship to
Artefact history: Created by Shinto and Buddhist monks, these are used to provide luck and protection from various things, these are highly common
Country/Mythology of origin: Japan/Shinto, Buddhist
Enhance-able: No
Clues: N/A



WB Artefact App:
Artefact Name: Nazar
Appearance:
Image

Type: Magic Tool
Mass produced?: Yes
Effect: Protects the user from curses such as the "Evil Eye"
Artefact history: Created by followers of the Tengrist religion, these have been created in number over the years, being spread around into the Middle East and Southern Europe from Central Asia by the Ottomans. Though most sold in marketplaces are fake, many geniune ones can be found fairly easily around the region.
Country/Mythology of origin: Turkic, spread over the area once ruled by the Ottomans
Enhance-able: No
Clues: N/A



WB Artefact App:
Artefact Name: Durendal
Appearance:
Image

Type: Artefact
Mass produced?: No, of course not
Effect: The sharpest sword in existence, blessed by various holy relics embedded in its hilt
Artefact history: Given to Charlemagne by an angel (according to legend), who subsequently gave the sword to Roland, of 'The Song of Roland'. Following the events of the epic, wherein Roland hid the sword beneath his body to stop it falling into the hands of the Saracens, the sword was lost to the annals of time, though it is believed to still be somewhere in France. It was eventually found and is now held by the Museum
Country/Mythology of origin: French
Enhance-able: No
Clues: None



I'll try and come up with more Families and Artefacts later, hope these are good enough for the moment. (I'm really just throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks here- apologies for the amount of reading required).

For the apps, add a bio and you should be fine.

Durendal, eh? :p
Not very sharp any more, methinks.
On a relevant note, reminds me of when I went to Rocamadour (where that rusty old sword rumoured to be Durendal is), the first holiday I was in southern France. That said, I only went through the area briefly, and it was on the way further south to a certain unusual camp-site in Ariege. Anyway...

I personally thought the first thing people were going to point out was the completely and utterly subtle reference in my family app.

Liking the Artifacts Aghra, the Magic tools may need to be tweaked a bit, (Mainly the Philosophers stone, not the content so much as the phrasing). Some of them may actually provide interesting IC events, they inspired in me. I may make a Grimoire of Solomon, or something, or a Greater and lesser Key, unless the Seal serves as one or both of those.

Just tell me what I need to do, and I'll do it. Could be a combo item if needs be.

WB Artifact App:
Artifact Name: The Armor of the Blood Knight
Appearance: http://s182.photobucket.com/user/TheRea ... 1.png.html
Type: Antiquity
Mass produced?: Only one Known in existence
Effect: It gives the user of the Armor increased strength and durability along with the skill of the blood knight himself. The downside is that the more the armor is worn the spirit of the Blood Knight infused in the Armor slowly takes over your soul until it has fully taken control of your body, you will not know it has happened until it is to late.
Artifact history: The armor came into existance during the 1200's created by a blacksmith named Giovanni de Ortega for the Imfamous Luigi De Freinze, the Blood knight, a knight of incredible cruelty and skill. For twenty years he wore this armor and was never even slightly wounded, but what did the Brutal Knight in was not battle but poisoning by his French wife Marie who wanted to run off with his brother. His armor was sold to a wealthy merchant in Venice, who slowly started to go mad untill he became a completly differnt person, one who was similar to the Blood Knight himself. He was the first victim of the Curse of the bloodkinght, Every man who wore the armor was possesed or almost by the knight. This went on untill the 1600s when the papacy took the armor and hid it away. It has not reapperared since, but rumors persist that the curse is dead but the skill of the knight is still infused in the armor, since then people has attepted to look through italy trying to find the armor unaware that the curse it still alive.
Country/Mythology of origin: Italy
Enhance-able: No
Clues: A possible theft at the vatican and or reports of a man in a red suit of armor running loose in rome.

The Seal itself could be Made of the Greater and Lesser keys, each of which controls different sets of entities. And then the only way to Split the Seal into the Keys will be with the Grimoire, which will require certain quirks to use.

The Seal itself could be Made of the Greater and Lesser keys, each of which controls different sets of entities. And then the only way to Split the Seal into the Keys will be with the Grimoire, which will require certain quirks to use.

That could work. I'd write it up now but I'm way too tired.

You can rework the Seal, and write a bit for the Keys, but i will handle the Grimoire, or vice versa, take your time, if need be.

Major Magical Family App:
Family Name: Tordenherre (Storm Lord)
Family Logo/Sigil:
Image

Country of Origin: Scandinavia, Denmark in general.
Family Head: Hans Tordenherre 38 y/o
Notable Members: Ann Tordenherre (Daughter) 18 y/o, Earnest Tordenherre (Eldest Son) 16 y/o, Edrie Tordenherre (Mother) 54 y/o, Eerika Tordenherre (Wife) 35 y/o, Christof (Deceased, Father)
Family Bloodline: Elemental Bloodline
Family Magic: Electricity Generation and Manipulation. The more powerful also often incredible inhuman speed.
Family History:
The Tordenherres had been the King's and Queens of Scandinavia in antiquity. Ruling from the Area of Copenhagen. They're believed to be the people that the Norse religion is based on. They are believed to be descendant from Northern European Raijus. However their immense power would cause them to become cruel and tyrannical. And even the most powerful of people cannot fight the masses. As evidenced by many nations across the world in recent history. The Tordenherres, and every known one was publically executed. The key factor is every known one, a bastard man, and a disowned daughter remained. Eventually the public found out about these remaining bloodline members, but by that time they were already deep out of the public eye. Hidden in with the normal people. They disappeared for a very long time, until the modern times. When magic was again being rediscovered. And the head of the Tordenherre family at the time, Cristoph. Although, some doubt whether Cristoph, and the modern Tordenherre's are actual related to the Tordenherres of antiquity. However, there are no doubts about the similarities between their powers. However, he was an extremely strong member of the family. Having not only the ability to control electricity but also incredible speed, and Lycanthropy. He would marry his second cousin attempting to strengthen the bloodline rather than diluting it. He have two sons and a sister. The oldest of which being Hans. Who also turned out to be most powerful. However, he wasn't nearly as powerful as his father. Having a quite impressive control of Electricity, but not even able to run at super speed. But Cristoph wouldn't know this until later in his life. However, when he figured out how week his children were, he was not the most willing to let Hans become the man of the house. He would try to create ties with other Bloodlines, and would marry his son to one. Another elemental family, one based on ice. He hoped this would allow his grandchildren to be more powerful than his offspring. However, he wouldn't ever see whether they would be when he died at 45. His granddaughter being 4, and his grandson Earnest would be 2. This would leave Hans in control of the family. At the age of 24. And would actually lead it quite well in spite of his relatively weak powers versus his father. His father would fear a fight between him and his siblings, however Hans would keep peace between him and his siblings, his sister being 21, his brother being 18. As his son Earnest grew up he began to exhibit great powers, possibly more powerful than Christoph. And he would soon figure it out. At the age of 16, when his powers fully manifested. He had all the powers but he also had incredibly fast thinking and reflexes. But he would remain loyal to his father. Knowing a usurpation may cause chaos in the family.
Notable Magics:
Lycanthropy, (Rare)
Incredibly Fast Reaction Times (Extremely Rare)
Self-Healing (Almost Non-Existent)
Only a few recorded cases in the Ancient Nordic part of the Family.

I'm thinking about some kind of Raiju. Which is a Lightning Wolf. As even though Raijus are of Japanese mythology there is also a lot of wolves in Europe so I suspect there would be some in Europe.

WB Artifact App:
Artifact Name: The Blood Totem
Appearance: http://www.mahalotiki.com/assets/images/dsc_0813.jpg
Type: Artefact
Mass produced?: No
Effect: The Totem has a odd ability. If you cut your finger and let three drops of blood drop on the statue you have the option to kill any one whose name you saw out loud. Three days after saying your enemies name, your enemy will be found dead . The downside of using this Totem is that if someone uses it multiple times it starts wearing down the users sanity. Eventually, prolonged use will drive the user completely insane. Also, the curse on the person marked for death can be deflected if the person is protected by a counter-spell casted by another witch doctor.
Artifact history: The Blood Totem was made by a mysterious Hawaiian witch doctor for a British businessman named Harold Phillips as a souvenir for Harold to bring home to England. Before the witch doctor gave Harold the totem, he told him of a special ritual that would bring death to Harold's enemies. Harold, dismissing the witch doctor's words as superstitious mumbo-jumbo took the totem home and placed as a decoration for his study. Two years later, Harold was conned out of his entire fortune by an Italian con-artist named Antonio Contoli and two accomplices. Harold, now homeless with his only possession being the totem remembered the ritual the witch doctor told him about. Harold then proceeded to cut his finger and let three drops of his blood drop on the statue and proceeded to saw the names of Luigi and his town accomplices to the totem. Three days after this ritual, Harold found out that Luigi and his accomplices had died in a gas explosion. Harold, realizing what he had just done, sold the statue to a pawnbroker and later shot himself due to driven mad by guilt. The current location of the totem is unknown but if someone where to find out about its' unique ability, that person could be extremely dangerous to anyone who crosses him.


Country/Mythology of origin: Hawaii
Enhance-able: No
Clues: The board of directors for a multi-national mega-corporation are starting to die in grisly accidents. The odd part is that the board members are dying within three days of each other. The most recent death has happened in Honolulu, Hawaii in which Constantine Smith, a board member died due to a gas leak. Could it be possible that someone found out about the totems power and is using to extract revenge on the board of directors?
