Leagues of Votann - League Relics: Aktol's Fortress - This armour crest was the life's work of the blind Brôkhyr Aktôl Vatyk. Painstakingly wrought using conflicting harmonic abrasion fields rather than hammer blows, and shot through with a core of hyperdense stelanictite, the crest projects a complex gravitic repulsion field that can be directed by the bearer against their foes. Bludgeoned and restrained by the clashing grav-waves, the enemy is held at bay long enough for the crest's bearer and their comrades to press forward and lay them low.Ancestral Crest - This armour crest is inscribed with the runes of the great Ancestor Cores, and it is only bestowed in times of great need to a legendary Kin warrior whose skills have been proven in a hundred battles. It is said that the crest acts like a mobile Fane, a node through which the wisdom and gestalt power of the Votann flows to aid the warrior in making better strategic an dtactical desicions for himself and his comrades. It is a great honour and responsibility to bring such an artefact to war, and should the bearer fall in battle, it is said the Votann themselves will wreak their vengeance upon the foe.Exactor - This potent Mass Hammer was fashioned for High Kâhl Ynnôk Orkhunter by the notoriously irascible craftsman Krynn the Furious. Exactor requires its wielder to swing it at precisely the correct angle in order to get the best from the weapon -- a testament to Krynn's legendarily high expectations of all those around him. However, when it impacts correctly, Exactor unleashes a devastating shock wave of power that not even the most formidable foes can survive.The First Knife - Almost every kâhl and Grimnyr carries with them a Plasma Knife. These are badges of high office, denoting that the individual speaks with the authority of the Ancestors. They are typically ceremonial -- rarely used in combat unless as a weapon of last resort. The First Knife, however, is of particular cultural significance and greater offensive use. It is believed to have been crafted by the Votann themselves during the days before the Kin came to the galactic core. Containing a unique power source and worked with script so ancient that no Kin can read it, this blade can be triggered to project a beam of laser energy that scythes through the victim at point-blank range. More than one ambushing foe or double-crossing faux ambassador has discovered, to their cost, just how deadly The First Knife can be.Flâyre - This remarkable forgewrought Plasma Axe is said to contain the bound fury of a colossal solar flare, syphoned from amidst the nuclear fury of a raging star and trammelled within knotwerk energy fields. Whether this is some boast of the Brôkhyr, or how such immense energies could be contained and channelled, is unclear, but the puissant fury of Flâyre cannot be denied. The axe's plasma blade burns so bright that it is painful to look upon as it streaks through the air. It is as swift and deadly as an unleashed star-storm, and leaves nought but charred enemy corpses in its wielder's wake.Forgestar - This respected relic Volkanite Disintegrator houses a unique power core that enables the weapon to maintain a constant beam of destructive energy.Iron Ambassador - This exceptional Autoch Pattern Combi-bolter was named by a Brôkhyr with a typically grim "Kin" sense of humour. It has been wielded by numerous heroes against the enemies of the Leagues of Votann, and has been the last word in many a failed negotiation with obdurate foes.Kâhyrm's War Plate - Constructed over the lifetime of the Master Armourer Kâhyrm, this void armour suit's war plate can withstand a punishing amount of damage.Wayfarer's Grace - This one-of-a-kind Kin void suit was crafted for the famed Hernkyn adventurer Simmka Farstryd as thanks for her saving the Hold World of Hyvôk's Kindred. Incorporating ancient technological secrets interpreted from Votannic lore, Wayfarer's Grace acts as a life support system for its wearer. Monitoring their vital statistics constantly, the suit provides medical support and can even restart its wearer's stopped heart in extremis.The Grey Crest - This cunningly wrought armour crest contains helical circuit threads believed to have been traded from a mysterious alien race, long since lost to the darkness between the stars. It projects a veil of obfuscatory energies able to fool both organic and artificial targetting senses, and conceal the bearer from the enemy's sights.Grudge's End - Manufactured over three Terran centuries by a dedicated team of Brôkhyr and Ironkin savants, Grudge's End is not one single object. Rather, it is an entire suite of conjoined adaptor modules which can auto-adjust to integrate themselves with any forgewrought Kin bolt weapon. Introducing artificially intelligent ballistic calibrators, a hypermunition microjactory and a bewildering host of additional one-off augmentations, Grudge's End transforms the host weapon into a tool that will indeed bring about the fatal demise of many a loathed nemesis of the Kin.Recyc Converter - Waste not, want not. This module extracts minerals and biomatter from the energy streams of its host weapon, usually a Volkanite Disintegrator, Ion Blaster, or Graviton Rifle, storing them in a quantum field until they are required by the Kin.The Captive Abyss - It is said this arcane mobile emitter contains a captive black hole lent vengeful sentience by the Ancestors. When hurled into the midst of hated foes, it triggers a microsecond burst of its ravening gravitonic hunger and wreaks horrible carnage before falling quiescent again.The Hearthfist - This gauntlet, which can replace a wielder's Mass Gauntlet or Concussion Gauntlet, contains a thermoreactive plasma core of unique design. When clenched into a fist, it begins to blaze with what is said to be the raw and furious fire of the Hearth itself. Each blow from the Hearthfist discharges furious blasts of plasmic energy that scorch and disintegrate, and it is said that those foes marked for death by the Ancestors feel the burning wrath of the Hearth worst of all.The Murmuring Stave - The psychocircuitry embedded within this ancient Ancestral Warding Stave is of a unique design that enables the wielder to better access their otherworldly powers. Along with the Greater Thurian League's Blade of the Ancestors, it is said to be one of only two weapons ever fashioned through immaculate forging by the Votann themselves, though prophecy speaks of a third still to be wrought. It is said that a suitably talented Grimnyr who holds this stave hears the faint voices of the Votann themselves in his or her mind, and can interface with them and gain their guidance at will.Tôrek's Shard - Ancient records suggest that a time-lost Kin craftsman named Tôrek fashioned this Plasma Knife from the stuff of the first Votann -- one of the First Ancestors and maybe even the sentience responsible for first giving the Kin life. Unsheathed and raised high, Tôrek's Shard inspires the Kin in battle as no banner or impassioned oratory ever could, driving their attacks to attain a passionate and frightening intensity.Thyrikite PLate - Few substances mined from within the galactic core are as rare or dangerous to obtain as thyrikite. Occurring only within the gravitic tsunamis of the Thykus Cluster -- home to the abhorrent Skorvexi -- this substance nonetheless serves as both a perfect insulator and phenomenally resilient, lightweight armour alloy. Only once has enough thyrikite been harvested to fashion an entire suit of void armour, but that suit remains a precious relic of the Leagues of Votann to this day.Wârpestryk - Hailed as the physical proof of Kin technological superiority, this incredible armour crest nonetheless has a somewhat dark reputation. None knows who fashioned it, how or when, and all attempts to replicate Wârpestryk have seen ill fate befall those who tried. Nonetheless, the crest allows its bearer to step between realspace and the Warp almost at will, crossing the battlefield in a series of flickering strides. Moreover, its mysterious inner workings project a directed field of intermingled realspace energistic and empyric interference, which fouls nearby enemy communications and seems to jam all attempts to gain a teleport fix within proximity to Wârpestryk.Vôlumm's Master Artifice - The name Vôlumm is spoken with deep respect within Forges throughout the Leagues of Votann, for few Brôkhyr have ever surpassed her achievements. Her trusted Graviton Rifle -- reverently cared for over thousands of Terran years -- continues to be the finest example of hand-held graviton technology the Kin possess, able to project and maintain beams of ravening power instead of firing regular, pulsed blasts.Ymmâ's Shield - It is said that the ore used in the forging of this remarkable shield was brought across the gulfs of space aboard the first Long March fleets of the Kin. Nothing like it has been seen before or since, though the Kin have searched tirelessly for fresh deposits of what appears to be a nigh-on invulnerable substance. It fell to the venerated Brôkhyr Ymmâ the Sure to fashion the unique deposit into a RAM Shield of unsurpassed resilience and perfect balance. Foes who assail the bearer of Ymmâ's Shield, usually an Einhyr Champion, prove themselves doubly foolish; not only are their efforts futile against the unbreakable bulwark of the shield itself, but striking this beloved relic in anger is a mortal insult to the entire Kin species. One who dares land such a blow is rarely permitted to keep breathing long enough to aim for a second.Ythur's Vengeance - It was said of master Brôkhyr Ythur Glâureye that he held more Grudges than any other single Kin in his people's history, especially against the Orks. He put his intolerance to good use by crafting this subtly worked ocular augmetic. It provides its user with an encyclopedic record of hostile species' weak spots for them to exploit, as well as listing Ythur's endless Grudges so that others can continue to exact his vengeance on his behalf.
