These AWEs affect archetypal objects and give them unique properties; referred to as Altered Items by the Bureau, they are contained within their headquarters at the Oldest House. AWEs also produce Objects of Power, which are unique in that they grant certain individuals paranatural abilities.

Objects of Power are connected to the Astral Plane, an alternate dimension housing the Board, an extradimensional entity which communicates through a massive, inverted black pyramid. The Board ordains the Bureau’s leadership through a ritual connected to the Service Weapon, an Object of Power; whoever the Board chooses to wield the Service Weapon is considered by default to be the Director of the FBC.
