Five-Lover Congruence Aureole
Edition:Second Rating: ●●●○○ Commitment: Varies Magical Material: Mixed
There are many things in the world, and each of them may be approached from a different angle; every different project from every different craftsman will be slightly seperate from each other. The great plate armor of a solar hero, inevitably, will behave differently from that of a dragonblood prince or lunar warlord. There is a loss in this, certainly; the solar may be weighed down by the bulk of his plate where the lunar would move as easily as ever, and the dragonblood's armor may be pierced by a blow that the solar would turn aside. The exalt who wears this plate, too, cannot attune to all of these materials as easily as to the one that fits his nature. All of these things limit what he is capable of, and no exalt can tolerate that. The Five-Lover Congruence Aureole was designed to overcome this limitation. It is made up of thin washer-shaped wafers of each magical material, rings about two inches across on the outside with a half inch hole in the center. They are stacked together, orichalcum, starmetal, soulsteel and moonsilver separated and sandwiched by the five colours of jade. Binding the rings together are several hairs from elementals from each corner of Creation, a god from Yu-Shan, and a powerful ghost. The final product is about the size of a large coin, and much heavier than would seem likely. When touched to an artifact of one of the five magical materials, it attunes to that artifact. While it is attuned, if the artifact would provide one magical material bonus, it now provides additional ones, at a cost of one mote each. Whether a Daiklave, a set of Black Widow Razors, or a set of Perfected Kata Bracers, the bonuses for each material may be emulated.
If the artifact would not normally provide a magical material bonus, for example a suit of Gunzosha armor or a Warstrider, the aureole has no effect. Likewise, a piece of equipment that provides no bonus as it is partially attuned by the wrong type of exalt cannot gain additional material bonuses.
The attunement cost of this artifact is equal to the artifact rating of the object it is affixed to, plus one mote for each additional MM bonus it is granting. The bonuses granted may be changed by reattuning.
