Relics of the Dead Age: The Sweat of the Brow.

Relics of the Dead Age.  

*Relics are objects that have absorbed personality, tragedy, raw emotion, and other extremes from mortal and divine life. They gain power from those who once held them and are a major source of power among those evading the Astarte forces. * 

Relic Name: Sweat of the Brow 

Type: Boots. 

Origin Class: Things left Unspoken. 

Appearance:  

A sweat-soaked towel of a once great athlete who, in his last run, broke the world record on a broken ankle. He pushed himself towards greatness, became a legend, but the push had done too much damage to ever fully recover from. He sank into despair of never again knowing the thrill of running not till exhaustion but through it, overcoming not just others but himself. After a long spiral, he ended it all, unable to find a new outlet or overcome his loss. 

Phenomenal Traits: 

The Sweat of the Brow: To give everything, to push past perceived limitations, to break records, and to do what people said was impossible. Those who channel this trinket can shift themselves, increasing physical, mental, or spiritual ability to chase their dreams. Stronger, Faster, Smarter, Wiser… to become the ideal you might have once looked up to as a child. Chase the impossible. Be the shoulder others might one day stand on.
