Below are some sample assets built using the system described in earlier posts.

White Jade Warstrider (Device)

Cost: 3 refresh

Features

• Harmful - +2 shifts of damage on attack (up to a max of shifts scored on attack roll)
• Protective - reduces shift value of successful attack by 2

• Jade construction - +1 to rolls when used by a terrestrial exalt, may activate the 'blessed by the elements' aspect at will.

Warstriders are ancient suits of magitech armour from the First Age, designed to not only protect the wearer inside their enormous armoured hides but also to increase their strength and prowess, only scant few function in the present and these require extensive maintenance (normally in the form of barely understood annointing ceremonies) to continue running.

These are just three examples of assets that can be quickly created with the Jadepunk style method of handling assets once you are familiar with the system, it is flexible but provides enough structure to enable you jump straight in and start designing.
