René François Ghislain Magritte was not only a surrealist painter, but also a Warehouse 13 agent, especializing in Art Artifacts. He used his Pipe and Hat to hide dangerous artifacts in his paintings, with the approval of the regents. When he grew old he decided to keep working at the Warehouse and devised a plan: Oliver Addams went with René inside the painting of 'The spirit of adventure',. Only Oliver returned and René became a guardian of his painting's artifacts, never aging.
Today: Warehouse 13[]
The artifacts are in possesion of Oliver Addams and used in some occasions. The artifacts can be paired with Scheherazede's Bracelet to allow the user to enter a story.
