Stone Heart

Item

Image heart25.jpg
Description Although people see patterns and faces in the strangest things, you feel comfortable saying this nodule of black rock looks an awful lot like a human heart. There aren't any obvious signs of manufacture, but you're sure the corps could manage something like this if they wanted to bother.

Holding the heart kind of makes you wonder what's in everyone's chests. Just a little bit of honest, scientific curiosity… nothing strange about it… nothing at all.
Type Offhand
Requires 8 Base Will

Uses

The heart can be used while equipped.

Without the Undying Heart skill?:

You bring the heart to your ear and listen, hearing a faint beat. Perhaps it's a hallucination, but it is strangely soothing.

With Undying Heart and Ghoultouched not active:

The heart looks surprisingly tasty, for something made out of black rock. Luckily, you're able to resist your baser impulses.

With Undying Heart and Ghoultouched active or not having the Ghoultouched skill at all:

You devour the heart, shattering it between your teeth and letting its steaming blood flow down over you. For a moment you can see through two artists' eyes, both equally mad, and see how their dreams pull at your actions. The sensation is dizzying.

Meanwhile, your wounds knot over with new flesh.

You regain 6-21(all?) hit points!

You've earned 2-5 XP in Strength

Eating the heart does not cost Hunger.
