Temple’s Creed 
Artifact: ••• 
Commitment: 8 motes 

Temple’s Creed was forged by Calistryx, the questing soul of Jacint, for her proxy the akuma Temple. It is part of a set of equipment known as [[Ambisinister/TemplesVestment|Temple's Vestment]].

Creed is a pair of vambraces forged from Ash Damascus and Malfean Brass. It is rumored that the Ash Damascus isn't pure, but is in fact an alloy: the other component being bone given from Calistryx's very body. Each bracer bears a plate of Malfean Brass on about three quarters of its outer surface, although this plating leaves the underlying Damascus exposed on the outeredges in much the same fashion as seen in Temple's Cloister. Inscribed on the right bracer is a litany of transgressions made by the Incarna against Adjoran and her souls. Inscribed on the left bracer are the common names of Adjoran and her souls. Each bracer bears a hearthstone setting on its upper, outersurface, near edge that is closest to the elbow when worn.

Temple's Creed is built upon the same lines of traditional hearthstone bracers and posseses similar effects. While worn, the bracers enhance the user's mobility and reflexes, adding four dice to the calculation of the character's Dodge DV. It lends a similar agility and elusivness to the character's mind as well, adding four dice to the calculation of the character's Dodge MDV. LIke Hearthstone Bracers, Temple's Creed benefits from Magical Material harmonization. In this case, harmonizing with the Ash Damascus increases the minimum damage of a character's attacks by 2.

Calistryx will always be aware of the user's thoughts so long as they are attuned to the Creed.

+Creed is a necklace formed of beads ranging from an inch to an inch and half in diameter. Each bead is crafted from a rough conglomerate of Ash Damascus, Malfean Brass, and bone. Each one is shaped with a unique set of grooves and holes. To activate the device, the user must commit an additional 2 motes. This causes the necklace to break apart and the beads to take flight circling in an orbiting pattern, generally over the character’s head. As the beads spin, the grooves and holes channel the air into a shrieking howl.

+The Creed, while active, invigorates the user, effectively increasing his Athletics and Resistance ratings by 2, this effect adds dice in addition to affecting calculations that derive from those values. Furthermore, increase the character’s movement rates by 2. Finally, a portion of this invigoration effect can be extended to up to the wielder’s essence x2 allies. This costs 1 mote, uncommitted, per ally and lasts for a scene. By committing the motes, the effect can last for up to a day. Effected allies receive the same bonus to their Resistance ratings in addition they will always be able to match the character’s speed, so long as they are traveling via identical means (e.g., if the character is on foot, it effects everyone on foot, if the character is mounted, it effects everyone who is also mounted).
-Calistryx will always be aware of the user's thoughts so long as they are attuned to the Creed.
+Calistryx will always be aware of the users location and actions, in addition to being able to hear anything from the Creed's location.
