EARTMASTER ARTIFACTS 1
Earthmasters are thought to have been quite in tune with
aura and psionics, so they almost certainly encouraged
and guided their youth in developing their talents, per-
haps even recommending occupations to take so their
talent would benefit that occupation. For example, hav-
ing those with the Healing talent become a Physician, or
Pyrokinesis talent become a Charcoaler.
Knowing they have a talent and information about it nat-
urally increases the chance of activating the dormant
psionic talent. They are expecting it, looking for it, and
they have the knowledge once activated their elders will
guide them. When a Globe of Light is placed on a Psionic
Diviner column, the strength and type of talents pos-
sessed by an individual can be determined.
Globe of Light
Description: An opaque white globe 4” in diameter
which glows when held by someone with an Aura greater
than 10. The globe was used to find out if young ones
had high aura (it also operated as a light source).
Operation: A low Aura (11) causes a low white glow,
like a candle. A high aura (18 and above) will cause the
globe to glow very brightly (like a 6’ tall bonfire). While it
is used to test the strength of a being’s Aura, it can also
be used as a psionically powered light source.
Suggested Location: Entering and leaving the tunnel
Ridow; 10 at each end.
Psionic Diviner
Description: An opaque white column 4’ tall with a flat
top. On the top are 10 concentric circles evenly spaced
apart and 17 lines radiating from the middle to the sides
of the column also evenly spaced apart. One line is
darker than the rest (the zero line). This column was used
to test Earthmaster youth, so elders could guide them in
developing their talents.
Operation: When touched by an individual with a
psionic talent, the lines will glow in a specific pattern.
Background Info: Each of the lines that radiate from
the center represents a different psionic talent. The con-
centric circles provide an indication of the talent’s
strength (each circle measures 10 Mastery Levels).
Starting after the zero line and moving clockwise, the or-
der of talents is the same as Psionic talent generation ta-
ble (HM3 Psionics 2). The zero line represents any
Unique (GM) talent.
For example, when an entity with four dormant psionic
talents touches the column, four lines will light up. If one
of those talents has a strength of OMLx2, it’s line will ap-
pear to be longer. Just how strong can be seen by how
many circles the line passes.
Suggested Location: A chamber near the godstone at
Pesino.

Earthmaster Spear
Description: The spear is 6’ long, has a round shaft the
diameter of a man’s finger, and is made of pseudostone.
There is a 7” long leaf-shaped spearhead on one end and
a 4” long blunt butt shoe on the other, both made from
an unknown silver metal.
Operation: When used as a hand-held weapon by some-
one with an aura above 9 (10+) against creatures with an
aura, add 1 to impact for every aura to double the normal
impact.
Example: Spear tip; 10 aura means +1 impact, while
16+ aura means +7 impact.
For the blunt butt shoe, 13+ aura means +4 impact. On
any hit, even without penetration, make a shock roll. The
WQ of the spear is 20.
If thrown (that is, no-one with an aura is touching it),
treat it as an ordinary spear. This means no increased im-
pact and no shock roll.
Background Info: The spears are often found near the
entrance of Earthmaster buildings, especially those with
godstones. There is usually a round hole 8” in diameter
in a door frame or a nearby wall greater than 7’ thick.
Covering the opening is a 10”x10” pseudostone slab
(HM3 Treasure 24). The pseudostone slab matches other
slabs around it, effectively hiding the spear hole. While
the spear holes could obviously hold many more, they
usually have just 1 or 2 spears inside. This may indicate
the spears were not intended for battling other human-
oids, but for deterring large bothersome creatures like
wolves, mountain lions, bears, and so on. Or perhaps
things that came through the godstone…
Suggested Location: Any Earthmaster site.
Black Locket
Description: A black pseudostone locket about 2”
around, held by a black metal.
Effects: Anyone who has the Telepathy or Medium
psionic talent can use the locket to communicate any dis-
tance (on the same planet).
Operation: Once a wearer attunes themselves to the
locket, they can open it. Inside is a space large enough to
hold 2 pennies. Place any bodily part (hair, fingernail,
etc.) of the person with whom they wish to communicate,
then use the psionic talent as normal.
If the wearer’s psionic talent is Medium they will also be
able to communicate with the recently dead. The wearer
can contact and easily communicate with the recently
dead; up to six months. Longer than this, the voice of the
dead grows steadily weaker until after 12 months, it fades
completely. The dead cannot be commanded, only talked
with.
Suggested Location: Any Earthmaster sites or any-
where jewellery might be found.

Silver Locket
Description: The Locket is round 2 ½” thick, 3” across
and it has three parts the top, middle, and bottom. The
top and bottom are on hinges attached to the middle.
When you open the top and look in you see what looks
like a compass with a needle in a glass globe. The needle
doesn't move, wherever you point the Locket is where
the needle points.
When you open the bottom, you find a small empty com-
partment that could hold about 5 silver coins.
The metal of the Locket is silver in appearance and is
very strong as are the hinges; the globe appears to be
glass but is really a transparent pseudostone material.
Effects: Detect the same mineral nearby.
Operation: Enclosing a mineral inside the bottom com-
partment (work only with non-living items) and holding it
in your hands will activate the Locket. If the same min-
eral is within the range of the Locket the needle will point
toward it (range = aura yards).
Example: Place a silver coin inside and the Locket’s
needle will point toward the nearest silver items or earth
containing silver.
Suggested Location: Any Earthmaster sites or any-
where jewellery could be found.
Earthmaster Fire Bowl
Description: A small pseudostone bowl that holds four
cups of liquid, and has a clear crystal embedded inside, in
the center of the base.
Operation: When held in both hands by someone with
an aura of 10 or more, the crystal starts to glow red hot.
Any flammable material inside the bowl and touching the
crystal will ignite. The temperature of the crystal in-
creases by 100°F per minute, per point of aura above 9.
The pseudostone insulates the inside of the bowl from
the outside and protects the PCs hands. When held in
one hand treat it as a normal bowl.
The temperature rapidly dissipates if one or both hands
are removed from the bowl. The crystal returns to ambi-
ent temperature within a just few seconds. The contents
of the bowl do not.
Whatever their purpose may have been, these bowls can
be used as a light source, for starting fires, heating liquids
for cooking, or as a heat lamp.
Example: For beings with an aura of 10 the crystal
glows at 100°F after one minute; for those with an aura
of 15, the crystal reaches 600°F and glows very brightly
(equivalent to a forge fire) but it takes 6 minutes to reach
that temperature.
Suggested Location: Any Earthmaster site.

Diving Mask
Description: Goggles with two transparent pseudostone
lens held by a black elastic material that adjust to any
head size. Attached under the goggles is a silk-like mate-
rial with longer material in the lower corners. The diving
mask cannot be damaged by any normal means.
Effects: Allows underwater vision and breathing.
Operation: The user puts on the mask with the lens in
front of the eyes, pulling the elastic strap over his head.
They pull the lower corners of the silk-like material under
the chin and wrap it around the back of the neck, tying it
in front.
When they enter the water, the mask turns sticky forming
a tight seal. The silk-like material filters oxygen out of the
water while the user breath normally. In the water, the
mask lens produces a light that is bright outside of the
mask but does not blind the user.
How far the user can see under water depends on the
clarity of the water and how brightly the light of the lens
is. Higher aura produces more light (GM discretion).
Suggested Location: Any Earthmaster sites near water
and at Ridow, near air locks leading to the ocean.
Black Rod of Hardness
Description: Dark gray to black rod 1’ long. One end is
dark gray and the other end is black.
Effect: When activated the rod sprays a fine black mist
out of the black end coating any mineral surface with a
thin layer. After 15 minutes drying the coating increases
the strength of the minerals, increasing the AQ/WQ by
+1. Up to 4 coats can be applied.
The black coating simply flakes off when sprayed onto
non-mineral items.
Charges: 1d100 One charge covers 1 sq yd with a fine
coat of black.
Suggested Location: Any Earthmaster site
Rods of Attraction
Description: Two 1’ long pseudostone rods with a clear
crystal embedded in one end. When held close they act
like magnets but are only attracted to each other, not
other metals or materials.
Operation: When the rods are separated, if anyone
points one rod at the other, the crystal on the one being
held begins to glow with a bright white light. Both rods
operate the same if they are being held. There is no ap-
parent range limit.
The rods can be used by keep explorers from getting sep-
arated or lost. One rod could be left in camp, so an ex-
plorer can find his way back, or he could leave one be-
hind to act as a beacon to keep him on a straight course
as he explores.

Barasi Point Detector
Description: An opaque pseudostone pendant about 2”
around, held by a silvery metal.
Effects: Within 100’ of any Godstone or Barasi Point, the
pendant increases spell casting by 20 EML; fatigue and
healing time is reduced by half.
Operation: When the pendant is within 100’ of God-
stone or Barasi Points it glows bright white.
When used with Earthmaster Idjar’s Eye (HM3 Treasure
23) the wearer can see an outline of a Barasi Point. If the
wearer moves around the Barasi Point until it lines it up
with a more distance point or Godstone, the wearer will
be able to see out of the distance point or Godstone. But
there is no telling how far away the more distance one is,
which makes alignment difficult.
Suggested Location: Any Earthmaster site or anywhere
jewellery might be found.
