Items and Artifacts: The Things You Own


Everyone has possessions. That's just how life goes. One day you have nothing then suddenly, bam! Stuff everywhere! Some things are more important than others, however. Putting points into items, creatures, and artifacts mean they are less likely to be broken, stolen, or used against you.


These are the powers and qualities for building your unique things.

Quantity Multipliers 

  • X 1 Unique - There's only one of these.
  • X 2 Named and Numbered - You have a quantity of these up to one dozen.
  • X 3 Horde - You have a lot of these. On short notice, you can gather around 50, and given time, up to 1000.
  • X 4 Shadow Wide - This item is found in a specific shadow, and it's everywhere there. If you are in the shadow of origin, it is feasible to get many thousands inside of a day's call.
  • X 5 Cross-Shadow Environmental - This item is found in every shadow with a specific environmental condition. As an example, think of ants. Wherever there is land, there are ants.
  • X 6 Ubiquitous - This item is everywhere, literally. There is no place in shadow that this thing does not exist. The item in question, however, must appear to be a normal, commonplace thing, like the light. 
Anything with a + means that this quality or power can NOT be transferred onto a character. This is what you have stats for and points for.

Intro to Broken Shadows

This was my initial game concept write-up: Amber survived the repair of the Pattern during the war. Though it wasn't without changes. ...
