Artifacts of Tiegalaan

"No, gods damn it, that's not what I said. I didn't say it was green, I said it was made of green. I don't know! It just was! No, I didn't fucking touch it! Fuck you!"

The god of madness Tiegalaan created numerous magical artifacts in his attempts to share divine knowledge with mortals. They are exceedingly powerful, unpredictable, and can warp the minds of those who touch them. Even those who remain in proximity too long can be driven mad, and become one of Tiegalaan's worshippers.
The have been lost, hidden, and destroyed numerous times before, but are very resilient. They have sprung into existence across the globe, and Tiegalaan's worshippers seem to be able to find them relatively effortlessly - when they are motivated to do so.
Each artifact has unique properties, and Tiegalaan's worshippers seem to attribute different meanings to them.

The Rod of Green

The Rod of Green is a cylindrical object roughly a foot and a half long, made of the color green. That is to say, it is not a green material, or painted green, or possibly even colored green. All observers seem to describe it as simply "made of green".
It appears to have weight, but does not make sound when touched to other objects.

Nothing

Describing this artifact is difficult. Second hand accounts seem to refer to it as both a single discrete object, as well as a place. It is said to be where "nothing" comes into the world. Even those who did not touch it report being able to feel "nothing" for years after experiencing it.

The Man of Fire

The Man of Fire is the title of a play, named after a recurring character that becomes more important as the story concludes. Unlike many other artifacts of Tiegalaan, which are objects that can at least be avoided, The Man of Fire seems to spring into existence of its own accord. Luckily, this is an exceedingly rare occurrence, and is fleeting.
Identifying when the play is manifesting, however, can be very difficult - and due to the maddening nature of the play, there are many conflicting reports of what exactly to look for. Scripts written ahead of time seem to be normal scripts, but often have recurring fire motifs. Even the beginning of these plays, when acted, seems normal. As time goes on, the actors begin to deviate from their scripts, and strange phenomenons begin happening. The audience, enraptured by this point, continue watching as the play becomes The Man of Fire. Some join in, spontaneously adding characters and dialogue to the story.
The conclusion of the play is always the same - a billowing gout of flames manifests in a towering humanoid shape. It stays for roughly two minutes, and disappears. Few audience members escape a viewing of the play and remain the same afterwards. Many become worshippers of Tiegalaan.
