Akhenaten's Crown

A transfer from Warehouse 2.

Appearance
An Egyptian Khepresh or Blue War Crown with a cartouche of Akhenaten's name inscribed along the edge.

Creation
The artifact absorbed Pharaoh Akhenaten's desire to create a new belief system during his rule.

Collection
The regents of Warehouse 2 managed to acquire it almost immediately after the Heretic Pharaoh's death, making the artifact's label one of the few instances of Akhenaten's name to survive being destroyed after his rule.

It was stored in Warehouse 2 for millennia until being transferred to Warehouse 13 with other artifacts from there.

Abilities
When worn, the user can cause people to worship whomever the wearer chooses, basically forcing people to convert. It is basically a mind control helmet. However, after a period of time (exact is unknown), these worshippers will turn against the wearer and quite possibly kill them. It is suggested that the artifact be neutralized before this time is up.

Connections
Pharaoh Akhenaten, sometimes called the Heretic Pharaoh, or simply "the enemy," ruled during Egypt's eighteenth dynasty. Five years into his rule, he decided to abandon the traditional Egyptian monotheism. As a result, he and everything related to him, aside from his son Tutankhamun who assisted in the restoration of traditional worship, were struck from history.
