Relics

Source GM Core pg. 308 2.0
Some extraordinary magic items grow in power along with a character, gaining abilities that add to an adventurer's legend. These are called relics, and owning one can define a character more than any other magic item.

Plant Gifts

Apothecary's GardenMinor Gift

Plant 
Source GM Core pg. 316 2.0
Aspect plant
Your relic grows potent natural medicines. Each night, two medicinal herbs (or other plants) grow from your relic and can be harmlessly harvested during your next daily preparations. A living creature that consumes an herb with an Interact action regains 1d8 Hit Points for every 2 relic levels (minimum 1d8). At 9th level, the relic grows three herbs each night, and at 17th level, the relic grows four herbs each night. Herbs wither away 1 day after being harvested.

Pollen SprayMinor Gift

Plant 
Source GM Core pg. 317 2.0
Aspect plant
Activate [two-actions] (concentrate, manipulate); Effect Pollen and poison spores spray from your relic, dealing 1d6 poison damage for every 2 relic levels (minimum 1d6) to all creatures in a 15-foot cone (basic Fortitude save). On a critical failure, targets are also dazzled for 1 round. You can't use Pollen Spray again for 1d4 rounds.

Sprout AllyMinor Gift

Plant 
Source GM Core pg. 317 2.0
Aspect plant
Activate [two-actions] (concentrate, manipulate); Frequency once per day; Effect Your relic rapidly matures and animates nearby plant matter into an ally to fight by you, casting summon plant or fungus, with a rank of half the item's level rounded up. You can Sustain this activation as you would the spell.

Grappling VineMajor Gift

Plant 
Source GM Core pg. 317 2.0
Aspect plant
Activate [one-action] (manipulate); Effect Your relic launches a sticky, multi-stranded vine at a target within 50 feet. Make an attack roll as you would when using a grappling hook, but if you roll a critical failure on the check to secure the vine, you get a failure instead. Once the vine is anchored, creatures receive a +1 status bonus to Athletics checks to Climb the vine, and they gain a +5-foot status bonus to the distance they move with a successful check while Climbing using the vine. The vine lasts for 1 day or until you use grappling vine again, at which point your older vine withers.

Petal DanceMajor Gift

Plant 
Source GM Core pg. 317 2.0
Aspect plant
Activate [two-actions] (concentrate); Frequency once per hour; Effect You discorporate into a cloud of petals and leaves. This grants you the swarm trait, immunity to falling damage, resistance 5 to bludgeoning and slashing damage, and weakness 5 to area and splash damage. You can fit into spaces only a few inches wide, moving your constituent petals through the gap. You don't gain the swarm mind ability, so you're still affected normally by mental effects. As a swarm, you can't speak, cast spells, use manipulate actions requiring your hands, activate your magic items, or make any of your Strikes with your normal body. You remain in this form for 1 minute or until you Dismiss the activation. At 13th level, the relic gains a reaction that triggers when you fall or take damage, applying this gift's resistances, weaknesses, and immunity to falling damage to the triggering effect.

MegafloraGrand Gift

Plant 
Source GM Core pg. 317 2.0
Aspect plant
Activate [two-actions] (concentrate, manipulate); Frequency once per day; Effect With a pulse of natural energy, your relic grows massive plants in an instant. The megaflora is of one of the following types, chosen by the GM when the relic gains this gift. A megaflora appears in an unoccupied 10-foot space within 30 feet and has 50 Hit Points, weakness 5 to fire, AC 37, Reflex +20, and Fortitude +30. It persists for 1 minute or until reduced to 0 Hit Points.
  • Corpseflower A single putrid-smelling flower grows at the target location. While the flower persists, each round at the end of your turn, all creatures in a 20-foot burst centered on the plant except you must succeed at a Fortitude save or be sickened 2 (also stunned 2 on a critical failure). This is a poison effect.
  • Thorns A 10-foot-tall thorned plant or bamboo stalk grows at the target location. While the stalk persists, each round at the end of your turn, sharp stakes erupt from the ground, dealing 6d8 piercing damage to all creatures in a 20-foot burst centered on the plant except you (basic Reflex).
  • Tree of Life A large tree bearing life-giving fruit grows at the target location. While the tree persists, living creatures within reach of the tree can use an Interact action to pick and eat one of the tree's fruits, regaining 2d8+5 Hit Points; picking a fruit without eating it causes the fruit to instantly vanish. This is a healing and wood effect, and a given creature can heal from the tree only once per round.
