View Full Version : Pathfinder Need a set of relics for my medium

So I'm thinking of putting together a Tien(Asian)-themed relic channeler for PFS play. As a relic channeler, I need to carry around a relic for each of the 6 spirits (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/occult-adventures/occult-classes/medium#TOC-Spirits).

My only though thus far is that my relic for the Champion will be the handguard of my ancestor's katana, but that leaves the other 5.
Any suggestions for other suitably themed relics?

Given that it is a katana, I am going to go ahead and assume some sort of Japan theme here, and keep in mind I know nothing of the relic channeler. Suggestions are as follows:

The scabbard itself for the sword, as I assume you have the whole thing.
An article of clothing, such as a kimono (Or whatever is worn in battle, I don't know clothing of any sort well). Something like an obi or a sash would work.
Prayer beads for the wrist or neck
An ink brush. I have no idea what social class your character is, but hey, calligraphy. I also assume the katana implies a higher class character.
Perhaps something related to a tanto, also for a secondary weapon?
A part of a monster. I see the Trickster spirit, and if there are any Tankui/Kistune/Whatevers running around, it could be something they have used, or was stolen from them. Or a body part, but that might be weird.


EDIT: A Netsuke! (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsuke) That might be good.

A jewel with circling of gold(with the emblem you want)?

Trying to keep these as relatively small, easily carried items. Here's what I have so far thanks to your help:

Champion: The tsuba of a katana.
Archmage: A scroll case.
Guardian: A scale from a kikko.
Heirophant: A wooden ofuda.
Marshal: -could use suggestions still-
Trickster: A fox netsuke.

Marshal aside, how do they sound?
