[REDACTED] House Vipion

[Trakaton Kalkoran]

House Vipion Reliquery

A current archive of all the relics and artefacts recovered for House Vipion that either grace viewing platforms in the Spire, are protected in guarded vaults in undisclosed locations or are carried and worn by the members of the family.

Spoiler: The Tablets of Purity

The Tablets of Purity
For as long as there has been Vipions the Tablets of Purity have resided close to the head of the family. These pieces of stone were first carved with the founding of the Vipions and are supposed to predict the future of the House and act as a guide to the head of the family during times of great trial. These tablets are sealed away so deeply that the secret of their location is known only to the head of the family and viewing is done totally privately. A few extracts have come and been made Oh licensed record but the piece in full is totally unknown.

This does mean the tablets are no longer in perfect condition. Ziost was horrifying for the conscious as well as the unconscious and even these most sacred of stones were rent into pieces by the force of Vitiate leaving parts and pieces missing or illegible. Because of this they are reviewed with far less reverence now and far less often, but, they still remain a secret of the House and will do so surely until whatever demise Typhojem has in store.

Spoiler: The Blade of the Abyss

The Blade of the Abyss
Over one hundred and fifty years ago Coduno Vipion constructed his second, and final, saber. Using parts taken from locations deeply linked to the darkside he crafted a hilt intrinsically linked to the force. Since then the blade has found use in 3 galactic wars as well as a large number of skirmishes in between. This blade has now become the icon of the Vipion leader and a badge of office for whomever takes Darth Vipion’ place.

Spoiler: The Bonds of the Ancestors

The Bonds of the Ancestors
In the lives of some sith there is a moment; be it of philosophical clarity, pure battlefury or historical eureka. In these moments the darkside will flow with unrelenting rage and power through the sith like a vessel of Typhojem’s will. For the Vipions these moments are not to be forgotten, yet, they are not simply recorded in tomes or in the Chronicle. Sith capable in basic levels of alchemy will forge a golden chain with a circular pendant on it - called a bond - with runes and High Sith script gilded into the pendant outlining the moment. Into this process the Vipion will pour their malice, their hate, and their emotional state in the bliss of their success.

These bonds are then worn until the death of the original owner who puts it into hiding. From there the bonds must be rediscovered by the members of the house or they will not come back into the fold. The point of this is to urge the sith of the Vipions to strive out and seek out power. The power obviously comes in the form of the bonds themselves however the true goal is to gain power in the journey for the bonds. Once reclaimed the bonds are strapped somewhere on the Vipion so tightly that the chain will begin to dig into the flesh of the host.

These bonds act as nothing more than shallow wells of emotion and alone do little to boost the strength of any sith. In concentrated numbers they do slightly more but are in no way going to channel enough emotion to make a huge difference. As of right now only six are in the possession of Darth Vipion and one in possession of Lord Tokiai, though countless others are hinted and suggested at in the histories in the archives.

[spoiler=Qyâsik]Qyâsik
As a gift of tribute to Lord Tokiai, apprentice Vaenra went on a mission to find something for the Sith Lord that was as of yet totally absent in the Houses. She did as was asked of her, venturing off the beaten track into tombs long since forgotten byt all except the oldest tomes found deep within the Academy archives. Qyâsik, or 'Force' as it translates into basic, is an artefact of a long dead Lord of the Sith whom crafted it to aid in his use of telekinetic force abilities. In the centre of the palm it has a large red gem stone that seems to be illuminated like fire from within.

Then on the chains around the wrist are two smaller gems - exactly like the first - that aid in focusing the power of the first and hug tightly to the skin of the wearer. The artefact is capable to be worn under any gauntlet or hand armouring and can be wrapped up in fabric whilst still fully capable of buffing the user's telekinetic ability. A truly unique item for a Sith Lord of truly unique stature.
