Enduring Heart
Type: Artifact
Discovery State: This core is surrounded by dancing Goo-Baby's and slime fairies. They have healthy and well intentioned debates in an attempt to understand each other better.
Anomaly Behavior:
Common sense and analytical thinking happens more often the closer one gets to the core. People find themselves thinking about their own logic, what they believe, and why they believe it. Those that have closed off minds tend to overcompensate, taking the things others say as direct attacks against them, becoming hostile more easily.
Activation Condition:
To bond with the Heart, a character must have a good faith discussion or debate with it. The topics can be about the hearts choice of the following:
Table Top RPG's, Video Games, Politics, Personal Worldviews, Guns, Foraging, or Anime
If the conversation is held with hostility or bad faith talking points, the Heart itself will not get mad, but the Goo-Baby's and fairies may become protective.
Description:
The dormant red core of a resilient slime girl who endured far more than she deserved. Her presence acts as a beacon, offering the kind of encouragement and stability that inspires those around her to keep moving forward. When this core is squirted with a water bottle, silly but adorable laughter can be heard in the distance.
If this core should ever come in contact with a version of herself from an alternate reality, she may reawaken, doubling their power level.
Gun Enthusiast: You gain 1 additional point of experience to level up your proficiency in firearms. Whenever you can no longer gain experience to level up a firearms proficiency, you deal additional damage with it equal to your Proficiency Level.
Logical Deduction: You gain a +3 to Deduction rolls as the Heart helps you to follow the logic around you.
Mushroom Expert: While you hold this item, the effects of cooked mushrooms last twice as long. You always know what mushrooms are safe or poisonous, regardless of the reality they come from.
Spellcasting Supporter: The Enduring Heart allows you to use a random Support ability once per turn. The AP cost is cut in half and must be paid as normal, but the ability does not require a recharge roll if it has been previously used. Passive effects with no AP cost last until the start of your next turn.
