Relic
The technology of creating relics has been lost to the tides of time.
Discovery
It is not known who "discovered" relics, as they are as old as time. However, some cultures place more reverence on these objects than others. Frielians, in particular vanarans from the Tall Belt, are often associated with relics given the great care they place in ancestral objects to ensure that a relic can be created from objects which have significance to them.Commonality
Relics are a lot more common than most people suspect. However, since a relic requires powerful wielders, many "relics" lie dormant or hidden.Manufacturing
In a sense, relics create themselves. Objects of significance during a person's life tend to accumulate energy. If after their passing this relic is maintained and nourished, there is a good chance it will eventually obtain enough power to become a relic. Importantly, relics can be anything (although the most famed ones are usually weapons and armor). From a beloved ancestor's cooking pot, to a book that has been read to exhaustion, relics have no boundaries.In Pathfinder terms, relics are called "scaling items".
