The Zenith is an artifact powerful enough to be an Avatar. It is only vaguely intelligent and does little on its own. However, if it finds a suitable mortal, it reshapes into a basically invulnerable, gem-like object such as armor or a sword, possibly changing the new owner to suit. The owners don't so much mind the changes, because of the amazing powers that come with them. Once the Zenith picks an heir, it generally stays with them for life. Zenith owners aren't necessarily kings, but always end up being influential. Part of its power is a subtle wish to go higher, to reach into the sky… Typically its powers include amazing leaping and gliding ability along with the power to survive almost any injury if the owner can give dramatic speeches about heroism. It likes that kind of thing.
