Relics of the Dead Age: The Platinum Peacock.

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: The Platinum Peacock. 

Type: Misc. 

Origin Class: Idols of the Thralls. 

Appearance: A small idol of a platinum peacock with its feathers flared, with each feather carefully decorated with gemstone eyes. Small beads of jet sparkle in its head, and while they’re solid, the black one can’t help but feel that it watches you. It is a symbol of Reibus, demon lord of Greed. It radiates gilded power. 

Phenomenal Traits:  

The Silver Smiles and Bejeweled Eyes: Those who channel the Platinum Peacock gain gravitas, the appearance of confident, refined power, and control over body, emotion, spirit, and mind. You can become more sociable, more aware of every emotion around you, of every hunger, of every need. Where Korra is the most cunning, Reibus is the master of social intrigue.  

Money Walks: Those channeling this relic can mark an object of great material wealth, allowing the user to jump to it while the Relic is active. 

Golden is the Silence: Reibus could waste his time whispering in the ears of whoever picked up his idol. He could twist them with a silver tongue, honeyed words, and oration, but he chooses not to unless someone piques his interest. Reibus may choose to make you vulnerable to his Greed-aligned demons. Those channeling this relic must make an incredible act of will to break the channeling, as to surrender such a treasure would be like cutting off your own arm or surrendering your child.
