ARTIFACTS:

Five Sepulchers (see "Pilot")
Attributes: According to ancient scriptures, God appointed five of his most trusted angels to watch over the affairs of man. They turned to evil and the five fallen angels (also called "The Watchers Who Fell From Grace") wreaked havoc by mating with the women they were supposed to protect. The Druids finally subdued and imprisoned them in the five chests. In order to raise true evil, the sepulchers must be arranged into a pentagram. Each chest has a key that must be used to open them. In order to be destroyed, they must have all five chests. Winston Rayne was killed when he found the first one in Peru. His son, Derek, tracked down three more chests. The final chest was discovered in Ireland after Derek had a vision about it.
