Celestial Battle Armor
Mantle of the Predator-Queen (Artifact 5)
This suit of celestial battle armor is odd to say the least, built with genesis and helltech rather than the typical megitech methods it is both horrifying and powerful. Appearing as a quiescent ball of muscular tendrils it has a setting for a hearthstone. When the hearthstone iss placed into the socket the ball unfurls, wrapping around the bearer and encasing them in ropy strands of unholy muscle fron neck to toes. The unholy fusion of demon and genesis-created flesh merges into new muscles that interface and operate in concert with the wielder's making a skin-tight sheath, which exudes blue/purple bioluminescent, chitinous plates that bear a hint of moonsilver fed to the construction in it's creation. The wearer may freely cause the armor to exude more tendrils to armor her head. It is in this fashion the serpent of Change manifests her Celestial Battle Armor. The armor has the following properties:

Artifact Transport
Crystal Darter (artifact 5, Sapience 5)
This odd skyship vaguely reminiscent of a First age Manta is longer, sleeker, faster and seemingly composed of opaque, iridescent crystal grown into the form of a ship's hull. It is designed to transport the infernal coven from place to place in lieu of heavily draining sorceries. the skyship can carry five people in comfort, or double that number in cramped fashion. the ship has no cockpit, instead flown entirely via it's organic mind ensconced deep within. The skyship is highly intelligent, loyal to a fault and often highly aggressive in the execution of it's missions. The Crystal Darter wants to be the flagship of a darter fleet that plies the skies, and will do whatever it takes to prove himself to his masters.
The craft is built from adamant, literally grown via the same technology the Dragon Kings used to forge things like their crystal bolt throwers, and taken to the next level.

Maneuverability: +2S
Endurance: Crystal Darter requires the use of a level 3+ hearthstone to activate his flight ability, though he has a control panel with enough slots to accept Essence capacitors. Crystal darter heals damage naturally as though it were an exalt.

Cargo: Any number of personal possessions that would fit in five comfortable one-person cabins.
