Origins[]
Throughout China's history various leaders made headway into furthering the construction of large walls across the country. These walls tended to be made of blocks of "rammed earth", clay and substrates packed tightly together into solid bricks. In the 14th century, many of these smaller walls were incorporated into the Great Wall of China, built in an effort to keep out invaders.
Effects[]
When the trowel is plunged into the earth a strong wall of compressed air, strong enough to stop an arrow mid-flight. Any living thing caught in the wall as it comes up will immediately die as they are also compressed and embedded into the structure. If the trowel is picked up and moved, the wall moves along with it at an even pace. Plunging the trowel into the wall will cause it to dissipate.
Today[]
Whilst investigating the estate of Ms. von Dichi, agents Aden Taylor, Felix Draco and Old Bone were taken by surprise when Ms. Dichi used the artifact to create a barrier around her to stop their attacks. The trowel was recovered at the scene after the walls had been removed.
