Voracious Ember Axe
Artifact Level ~ 3
Commitment ~ 8 motes

In order to forge the head of a Voracious Ember Axe one must first travel to the far Southeast to harvest material from the Great Iron March, a Blighted Land where a Wyld ravaged forest was turned to living iron. This living iron must then be taken to a volcano, shaped, and then quenched in magma. If properly done, a sooty black axe head, faintly warm to the touch and flaky with char will result. When this head is affixed to a shaft of one of the Magical Materials and the essence channels properly aligned, it will begin to glow, like an ember, with an internal light related to the chosen Material.

Voracious Ember Axes are incredibly destructive tools. Each life taken with one causes the head to glow brighter and with more intense heat until it bursts in flame. Every time the wielder kills someone with the Axe, increase its Overwhelming rating by 1 for the scene, to a maximum of 8. In addition, the Axe's inner heat is so great that it can ignite objects it comes in contact with. Every time the character inflicts damage against an inanimate object, that object bursts into flame and takes 6 levels of unsoakable damage every 2 ticks. This fire will not spread and goes out once the object is consumed. For larger objects, such as walls, the fire will consume enough material to make a mansized hole. Certain materials may be immune to this effect at the storyteller's discretion.

Voracious Ember Axes are commonly made of Red Jade or Soulsteel, but may be made from any type of Magical Material and recieve the appropriate bonuses. Regardless of its type, all Voracious Ember Axes have a single hearthstone setting where the shaft joins the head.
