MET LARP SRD

The blood magicians of the Followers of Set often begin studying sorcery by preparing simple earthenware vessels with a purpose that belies their humble nature. The Canopic Jar is one such traditional icon – historically used to symbolically store organs for one’s afterlife. When infused with vampiric power, however, such vessels become ideal containers for precious items. As such, they are also useful for the exchange of hidden messages or protecting valuable information.

Spend 1 point of Blood and five minutes burning incense and reciting a ritual chant above a small, watertight earthenware vessel – one capable of holding no more than one cubic liter of material. Followers of Set traditionally choose Egyptian canopic jars for this purpose, but any clay or ceramic vessel of the correct size is suitable. Objects can be placed in or removed from the Canopic Jar normally, as long as they can fit inside. 

Once the ritual is complete, the vessel and any inanimate object it contains becomes immune to all powers that could view it remotely, such as the Scry ritual or the Auspex power Clairvoyance. Supernatural powers operating under the user’s direct gaze, such as Heightened Senses or Spirit’s Touch, are unaffected by Canopic Jar.

In addition, the vessel becomes supernaturally resistant to damage, especially from fire. The object can sustain 6 points of damage before breaking and takes no damage from sources of fire. Animate objects and creatures, such as small animals (or supernatural creatures transformed into small animals) destroy a Canopic Jar’s supernatural power if they enter it, and attempting to do so causes the object to revert to a mundane item. You may have a number of these objects equal to twice your dots in the Occult skill. If you create additional objects, you must choose which of your current objects become inert.
