Three Strange Artifacts
and the reign of the Titans. for Vaults of Vaarn
What strange apparatus can be
found within these forgotten By Jacob Marks
vaults? Will they bring you
wealth, or kill you in the
process of discovery?

Within this pamphlet are three

bizarre items. Each has
incredible powers, but at a
price. Each item includes the
following: A description for the
players in italics, a
description of the item’s powers
for the referee, and a flowchart
detailing the experimentation
process. Each item is unknown to
the players, so they are nearly
guaranteed to fail at using it.
This failure can result in
strange side effects, and
possible damage.
