The Artifact

WIP Ideas:

Origin and Condition:

• • The artifacts originate from a vanished civilization.
  • They are damaged and partially broken.
  • Their magic is "bleeding out" and affecting the environment uncontrollably.

Function in the Past:

• • • Not yet decided:
      • Could have been used for entertainment (e.g., magical shows).
      • Might have served as "pet-friendly" helpers in daily life.
      • Could have been tools for training or magical education.

Loss of Control:

• • When: After the disappearance of the civilization.
  • Why: The artifacts were no longer maintained or controlled.
  • Consequences:
    • Magic becomes unstable and dangerous.
    • Some creatures flee from the effects, while others might be unknowingly influenced.

Role of the Players:

• • Players act as a "link" between the artifacts by absorbing their magic.
  • Goal: To stabilize the magic or neutralize it entirely.
