Artifact: Rapunzel’s Bezoar
Power: Significant.
Description: A disgusting, ratty hairball compressed into a dense, dark fibrous tube of with light, airy edges of loose strands. It is clearly made of hair from multiple different people and squishes slightly when squeezed. Just barely small enough to swallow, but doing so is painful and can cause choking. It is hot and prickly to the touch.
Effect: Rapunzel’s bezoar purifies the body of physical addictions, swallowed alongside indulging in the object of addiction. In addition to being painful, willingly swallowing something so disgusting is a rank 6 helplessness check. Processing the bezoar take three debilitating days, anyone getting less than a matched success on a Fitness roll on each day is in agony and bedridden for 24 hours. At its conclusion the bezoar passes out of the body and the addiction with it, there are no complications from withdrawal. Psychological addictions are not removed.
Using the bezoar within a month of someone else replaces your addiction with theirs. The new addiction cannot be removed by the bezoar.
