As per the Relic Heart.....

Agree 100%......heh heh heh

<<Ok, first off, if the new harrowed can find any kind of meat, he can
quote-unquote grow back a heart... meat is meat, and harrowed can pretty
much heal from any kind of wound eventually>>

Not their Death Wound.....that never heals.     And having your heart ripped 
out of your chest is about as "Death Wound" as ya can get!!

<<Anyway, on to the heart thing. Make it a relic of some sort... fairly
low-powered at first, but it might gain powers later, if you drag things
out long enough. I'd do something like give it the power to dominate the
former owner... there ought to be a harrowed power or two that allows
you to force other people to do what you want. Naturally, if the
harrowed gets his heart back, he gets the new power>>

He's a lot nicer than I would be.     I'd have the Hearty develop whatever 
Harrowed powers the Dead character does and gives them to that Syker (kind of 
a re-hash of the old 'Hand of Oshdan' from Dark Shadows).     Of course I 
wouldn't let it help the Harrowed character, but having this thing out there, 
making someone as...let's say powerful, as he becomes would be GREAT 
incentive to get it back!

<<Tell your new harrowed he's got a pretty ragged gaping wound in his
chest that likes to bleed a bit when he gets upset or stressed.>>

I'd go with maybe a 'special' form of the hinderance Degeneration (a'la even 
when covered, it just LOOKS like a big hole in his center mass).

<<Give some new powers to whoever
holds the heart, and make sure you torture the PCs with it a bit, but
whoever has the heart is immune to anything they can do, or easily
escapes every time they corner him.>>

Ahhhh the Hand of Oshdan DOES return to gaming....in the form of a heart!    
heh heh heh     I might even let the thing "pick up" new tricks as (or IF) it 
was passd from owner to owner....maybe 'absorb' one of the Syker's powers 
here..... maybe the next possessor would be a Rad Priest and gives it of of 
those miracles....
