EXAMINATION OF PARANATURAL TOPICS

OBJECT OF POWER AND ALTERED ITEM DISTINCTIONS

SUMMARY:

While Altered Items and Objects of Power may seem similar at first, it's important to note some very key distinctions.

Firstly, Objects of Power grant parautilitarian abilities (see file PUT-812 for an introduction to the subject).

Secondly, Objects of Power translocate anyone who makes physical contact to the Astral Plane. This is widely believed to be due to the [REDACTED]'s affiliation with Objects of Power. Not every individual is allowed in the Astral Plane, which indicates the [REDACTED] evaluates who can or cannot enter.

Thirdly, and this is not always the case, Objects of Power are much more paranaturally [REDACTED] than Altered Items.

Looking at the specific criteria that defines an Object of Power, it is no wonder they are notably rarer than Altered Items. In fact, we have [REDACTED] Altered Items for every Object of Power contained within the Bureau.
