Um, wehere did you get the idea that a Player actually BECOMES the artifact?
What happens is, player dumps XP into skill called Venerate. Player uses
Venerate on ordinary object. Ordinary object gains stat bonuses and can't be
repaired anymore, and skill in Venerate is lost. Object formulas differ for
both object type and player. ... Wow,m it DOES fit in 10 lines (if you leave a
lot out)
