Do you know what happened to Geronimo&#8217;s skull, or to Ben Franklin&#8217;s robot? Do you know why occultists are willing to pay top dollar for a shard of the plane Buddy Holly died in? Learn the answers to these questions and more, in the second volume of American Artifacts.<\/p>\n<p>American Artifacts 2 gives you 20 magical items uniquely suited to the New World. Some are objects from American history, like Crispus Attucks&#8217;s musket ball, or from pop culture, like Zuzu&#8217;s petals. Some were created by wizards who act like scientists, and some by scientists who act like wizards; Nikola Tesla&#8217;s ray gun, William Faulkner&#8217;s pocket watch, and Benjamin Franklin&#8217;s automaton all blur the line between magic and science.<\/p>\n<p>All 20 artifacts are suitable for use in a wide variety of games. Each entry includes a description of the artifact, background information, and game mechanics. The artifacts range from the charming, like Mark Twain&#8217;s cigar box, to the cosmically powerful, like the Shard of the True Plane. A detailed timeline is also included, that offers a clear overview of the occult history of America. You don&#8217;t need to have read the original American Artifacts to use this book, though if you like one, odds are you will enjoy the other.<\/p>\n<p>American Artifacts 2 is 100% made in America. It is edited by Leighton &#8220;Valley Forge&#8221; Connor with art by Jeffrey &#8220;Harper&#8217;s Ferry&#8221; Johnson.<\/p>\n<p>Discover more national treasures.
