Artifacts
Throughout the world there are many artifacts that are beyond the scope of typical magical items and have unique capabilities. Here is a list of some pre-made ones that can be used either in a campaign or as a template to make better suited ones for any story.
Almost all artifacts are indestructible, but if there is shatter resistance and HP mentioned in the entry they can be destroyed conventionally. Most of the time attempting to destroy an artifact will only result in tiring the attacker out. This does not, however, protect anyone wearing an artifact being attacked from getting hurt.

This weapon is a long metal shaft that is shockingly light at .5 lbs. Despite this it still has
25 shatter resistance and 110 hp. This weapon will form a glowing blade of energy
at the end when activated. This weapon can only be activated for 10 rounds before
any electric effect is used on it to charge it. The standard energy rune disc this glaive
comes with is the Water disc, meaning it deals purely corrosive damage.
This weapon deals 1d10 damage with a 19-20 critical range and x3 critical multiplier.
The Energy Glaive is considered to be a +4 enhancement weapon but cannot hold
any imbuements.
Power cells are available to allow for quick recharges, but can only be found in the
ruins of Loka-Makh. Swapping a power cell is a swift action.

Thaycoh Scarf
Cursed
Slot: Neck
This scarf curses the threads of fate around the user, and alters how chance, skill, and talent work around the user. The scarf is a finely woven burgundy sash that has gold trimming expertly and fancily sewn on. At the ends of the scarf is an embroidered, "Zero," numerical symbol. The symbol changes into whatever numerals the user is used to seeing. The origins of this scarf are unknown, nor is its original purpose known.
For the wearer, their AC calculation changes to 10 + Armor + Shield + all other types of bonuses - 1/2 Dex Mod; round down - circumstance modifiers.
Creatures that attack the scarf wearer also suffer from the curse in that their attack rolls no longer work the same. Their attack roll becomes 1d20 + any circumstance modifier. No other bonuses are counted towards their attack.
If the attacker's attack roll + the scarf wearer's AC total to 20, the attack is considered a hit.
Removing this cursed object requires a benediction ritual to be cast with at least four level sixteen divine casters contributing.
