Disjoin Artifact

Effect: You spend 24 hours in deep meditation, attuning yourself to the intricacies of the magic imbuing the artifact. This time must be spent mostly uninterrupted or you risk losing track of the threads of magic therein. After this mediation, you begin the process of painstakingly unweaving the magics surrounding the artifact. Throughout the process, you apply Essence of the Void to the powerful magical threads, weakening their bindings and holds so that they may be unraveled. Essence of the Void is extremely volatile, however, and each hour you must succeed a Ritual Casting check [DC 40] or you are consumed by the void and any other creatures within 200ft suffer 500 Annihilation damage. Additionally, if your Concentration is disrupted during the ritual, you are consumed by the void.

As soon as you begin to affect the magics imbuing the artifact, creatures allied with the artifact become aware of its distress and will attempt to come to the artifact's aid. In some cases, this includes drawing the attention of the gods themselves, who will send their champions (or even their avatars) to stop you. The artifact will also do anything within its power to disrupt the ritual, including teleport away, take over control of your mind or body, or destroy you itself if within its capabilities.

If you succeed all Ritual Casting checks and complete the ritual, you successfully Disjoin the artifact and render it inert. At the GM's discretion, a disruption of this ritual could alter or partially disrupt the Artifact's abilities.
