Gifts from the gods above, Relics are items that have become Legendary themselves, either through the material they are made of, the craftsman who created the item, or being used for incredible deeds in the eyes of fate. The powers they can give their wielders are countless, from something as minor as a flashlight that will never run out of power, to a bone covered staff that summons the dead when rattled over a graveyard at midnight. The iconic tools of the gods are Relics as well, such as the lightning bolt of Zeus, or the colossal club of The Dagda. Often Relics grow in legend and power along with the Scions who wield them, until they grow to be something to rival the helm of Hades, or the third eye of Shiva..
While Relics tend to be items, there are some exceptions to this rule. Relics can be used as a template to represent facets of a Scion's nature, such as a Scion of Niamh could take their Sidhe Heritage as a Relic and give themselves some powers related to the Sidhe through it. Relics can also be used to represent ritual maiming some Gods have endured, such as Odin or Tyr, or even magical substances a Scion has consumed, such as the Salmon of Knowledge Fionn mac Comhail was blessed by. These unusual Relics cost 1 Dot above the normal cost, since they are dramatically harder to remove or tamper with.
Potential Relics
As presented, here are some potential Relics that can be used, sorted by Pantheon.
Rank One
Ceol ar an Anam - ●
A birthday gift from her father before he left, these headphones are some of Madeline’s prized possessions.
● = Allows her to effortlessly mimic any sound she hears.
Tattooed Feet - ●
While the Cuneiform alphabet was primarily used to keep records of taxation, laws, and receipt of sales by the Empires which used it, Samuel’s feet have been tattooed with records of his multiple victories in different running events from school and University. The power in the first written language leaves Samuel fast, faster then he has any right to be, even as a Scion.
● = Removes the cost of Faster than Thought.
Glory-Gold Hair - ●
The first at the Battle of the Wyre to spy the death throes of his brother Apollo was Charles. The light that lit up the Underworlds bleached the hair of the Olympian bastard gold like the dying sun’s rays.
● = Channels Sun.
Musty Book - ●
An early illuminated manuscript, without the layers of gold and jewels that the others tend to have, likely in an attempt to make it look less interesting to the Norse raiders of the island, was the third object given to Bran. The words on the pages are almost painful to read, and seemingly try to escape from the page when one isn’t looking, shifting around and changing wording slightly. But, when Bran forces himself to read from a page, he can discern something of the coming trials.
● = Channels Prophecy.
The Gift - ●
This beautifully crafted knife was originally carried by Leonard and has taken many lives before the two met.

● = Channels Mystery.
Self Destruction - ●
A finely crafted desert eagle that is the same weapon the Scion used to kill himself. The fact that he’s still alive says more than it should. On the inside are runes carved in ancient Greek, over the magazine and any place the Scion could get in a word or two.

Soiléire - ●
Found on a river bank during one camping trip, Madeline plucked this luck stone from the waters and strung it upon a leather necklace. She carries it wherever she goes.

● = Channels Artistry.
Greek Machaira - ●
A gift from the hand of Hecate, little was told of whether this blade had any particularly notable history. What is obvious is that it’s sharp, weighted well for Heather’s hand, and grants her access to a good chunk of her divine heritage.
● = Channels Magic.
Map of the Hidden Ways - ●
The second gift from her mother, the Map remains as much a mystery as the machaira. It definitely shows something, but the lines are blurry and indistinct, even to her trained eye. It can, however, serve to get her where she needs to be going through the powers of a Psychopomp.
● = Channels Psychopomp.
Tennur við Dýr - ●
Rick’s weapon may be dwarf make, but its ammo comes from Tyr’s forge. These bullets are tipped by the fangs of a son of Garm that the God of War slew in the past. And like the rage of that beast, once Rick’s gun is loaded with these its ammo seems endless.

Manannan’s Ledger - ●●
While Rhiannon is never going to be a proper Death goddess, she is willing to help her father out wherever he needs it.

● = Channels Death.
● = Channels Animal.
Trinity Telecom Phone - ●●
A phone from an obscure and tiny Irish Telecom company was given to Kevin the first time he started his tutoring under ‘Michael’, and he used it to contact him as he worked his way through school.

The fact that he doesn’t get charged for calls to the two has saved him thousands with Miach.
●● = Contacts Miach, and Donn.
Jade Pendant - ●●
Grateful for the volume of blood Ahava sacrificed in his name, Tlaloc sent this small jade pendant imbued with a fragment of divine power to her when she rose to the level of Demigoddess.

● = Removes the cost of Ricochet Symphony.
Falinn Brynja - ●●
This compression shirt was crafted by dwarven hands, and careful examination shows Elder Futhark runes in the weave.

● = Functions as a Bulletproof Vest.
● = Causes all clothes to fit him.
Rank Three
Bow of the Prince - ●●●
The ancient bow wielded by the foolish son of Priam who led his family and kingdom to ruin and death has slowly changed over the years.

The weapon has grown blackened, and cracked by the burning powers wielded by Charles.
●● = Levin’ Fury uses Marksmanship.
● = Removes the cost of Flare Missile.
Bradán Feasa - Relic ●●●

● = Channels Magic.
●● = Evil Eye swapped to Art.
Fiagaí - ●●●

●● = Social Chameleon swapped to Stealth.
● = Removes the cost of Perfect Imposter.
Dragon’s Blood - ●●●

●●● = Removes the cost of Body Armor.
Cuneiform Shirt - ●●●
While the Great Gods need not wield items to connect themselves with the forces of the world, save for the ancient powers of Fate.

● = Channels Prophecy.

● = Removes the cost of Opening Gambit.

Slivers of the Moon - ●●●

● = Channels Animal.
Leather Mask - ●●●●
A leather mask that is probably depicting the front half of a skull, with two tiny horns stuck on the top.

Unknown to Bran, but if someone who understood such things was to take a look at it, it is sewn of ancient human skin, taken off the bodies long lost under the hungry earth of the bogs.
