The Arsene Amulet is an ancient necklace that was imbued with the power for its user to steal epithets from others.

Description

It is a golden pendant with a large, green heart-shaped crystal in the center. The outer shell has cat-like features such as whiskers and ears.

History

Past

60 to 65 years before the events of Epithet Erased Season 1^[1], the Arsene Amulet was forged by its creator and transcribed with their epithet, Copycat.^[2] Sometime after, it was donated to the Sweet Jazz City Museum and kept in its storage room.^[3]

"Museum Arc"

Eventually, two employees of the Sweet Jazz City Museum, Mera Salamin and Indus Tarbella found the amulet, with the intent of stealing it for themselves.^[3] After Dr. Sylvester Ashling tried and failed to stop Mera from keeping hold of the amulet, it was used to steal his epithet. When Molly Blyndeff fell from the ceiling vent almost immediately afterwards, Mera used the amulet to summon one of Sylvie's abilities, nightmare fuel, to try and scare the girl into surrendering.^[4]

Despite Molly not being phased by Mera's show of power, Mera still attempted to steal Molly's epithet with the amulet. However, Molly had deafened Mera, which allowed Giovanni Potage to attack her and take the amulet. Molly, wanting to restore Sylvie's epithet, was briefly lent it to do so. When the Sweet Jazz Police arrived on the scene, Giovanni took it with him in his escape.^[4]

"Western Arc"

Hearing of the amulet being stolen from the museum, Bliss Ocean sent Zora Salazar to hunt it down and retrieve it.^[1]

Later, after setting up a meeting at Redwood Run, Giovanni visited Ramsey Murdoch with the amulet to have its worth be appraised. After finding out the amulet was priceless, Giovanni strolled out of the Redwood Run Police Station, and encountered two Banzai Vice Principals: Bugsy Pugsler and Arnold Markdown. The two had their Banzai Team attack the captain and Bugsy took the amulet.^[1] Later, after the vice principal was skipping town, Zora intercepted him and gained possession of it.^[5]

Later, Ramsey nabbed the amulet from Zora during a duel between him, her, and Percival King and swapped it with a replica made of fool's gold. He gave the real amulet to Percy, who then gave it to the Sweet Jazz Police Department.^[6]
