In the Garden of Uden there are roses of love. The most exquisite and<br />

most powerful are those of True Love. They are terribly rare and terribly<br />

fragile as they grow but once they blossom, their petals turn to crystal<br />

harder than diamond.<br />

Name: Ruby Dagger<br />

Description: An ornate crystal dagger made from petals of True<br />

Love, worked together with an adhesive compound of Jealousy and<br />

Nostalgia; the handle is often carved bone.<br />

Dagger with an almost indestructible blade 6 PEN (22 Penetration);<br />

if given as a gift to a lover it will hide in the lover’s heart until it’s<br />

needed and return when the danger is passed<br />

Reflection: Letter or postcard from an old lover<br />

Name: Love Potion<br />

Description: A tea made from the leaves of roses not.<br />

Potions can have many effects depending on the potency of the leaves<br />

and the preparation process. Usually reduces the imbiber’s resistance<br />

to charm by 10 or to 0 (whichever is higher) to charm attempts made<br />

by whomever offered the drought. Other formulas make giving the<br />

potion, itself act as a Charm or Seduce attempt with PWR 22<br />

Reflection: Exotic teas<br />

The soil in the Tulgy wood has a damp, heaviness to it – essence of lost<br />

– the aspect of confusion, misdirection, and diversion. It forms paths that<br />

lead away from true destinations and into recursive loops and indefinable<br />

mazes. Lost, itself, is a heavy sediment of indeterminate color that<br />

obscures things upon it. Drop a quarter while traveling on the twisting<br />

paths of the deep wood and don’t stop to look down; you’ll never find it.<br />

Name: Jug of Missing<br />

Description: An earthenware jug with colorful designs and a wide<br />

mouth (holds about a gallon); anything put in will be lost to the owner<br />

(no one present will remember putting anything in the jug). People<br />

not intimately familiar with the jug will never look in it; the jug itself<br />

will be easily misplaced or overlooked<br />

Characters who are not familiar with the jug will not look in the jug<br />

– they will not even perceive it as a container.<br />

Reflection: A non-descript box, vase, or other “decorative” container<br />

The Monks of Mourning gather leaves from special trees – leaves of<br />

deep sorrow. The ash from these leaves smells of tears and the smoke of<br />

their burning brings a sense of profound loss and sadness to those who<br />

inhale it. While some seek such emotional extremes for self-knowledge<br />

or for its purgative effects, the Monks believe that it represents the<br />

natural state of mankind – that overwhelming sadness is his highest<br />

expression of being<br />
