Cloak of Abalone

Woven by the Tremere as a powerful weapon against Toreador, the Cloak of Abalone is dull black, brown, or grey on the outside, but opens to reveal a lining that form a scintillating shower of mesmerizing color.

System: The wearer must make a Rouse Check to activate the cloak, after which the targeted Toreador is immediately treated as if they rolled a Bestial Failure and are afflicted as if their Toreador Obsession was in effect (VtM pg. 210). Note that the cloak only works on one target at a time, and there is seldom more than one cloak per Tremere Chantry.

Ironwail Blade

An ancient Bean-Sidhe was "artbound" to the blade of this shortsword in a past age. Already trapped between the Dreaming and the Shadowlands, the imprisoned Bean-Sidhe found itself twice-damned. The cold iron of the blade — anathema to fae — only caused further agony. The constant faint wail of this tortured creature, while impossible to pinpoint, seems to emit from whomever carries the weapon.

System: This shortsword has a damage value of 2. The cold iron material converts all damage to Aggravated when used against fae. While carrying the sword, take a one die penalty on rolls related to stealth.

Rowan Ring

Rowan Rings are feared tools of assassination employed by elder members of the Banu Haqim or their trusted neonates. They appear to be simple wooden rings, but can be transformed into a sharp stake in an instant. They are detectable as magical with Auspex or other occult means.

System: After making a Rouse Check, the ring mystically sharpens and elongates into a wooden stake that can be used to make a stake attack (Corebook, pg. 221). The stake detaches after use and the ring falls off its wielder’s finger. A simple thought transforms the stake back into a ring when not in use.
