Help creating an artifact based character

I'd like to make a character that has found ancient artifacts that giver her power (Might). What are some pieces that work? I do not envision a full mystic suit - more like some bracers / shoulders / necklace / boots that look like magic artifacts on an otherwise normal spandex hero.

The inspiration is sort of a Wonder Girl (from the New 52 Teen Titans) or Witchblade type of thing. Maybe even using the fact that CO lets you put different things on either shoulder, etc. to make it unique.

I looked at the Ancient Armor, Arcane, and Egyptian pieces but nothing seems to look right.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

    Patterned Armor set has bracers, boots and stuff, with glow. From Z-store

    Long Glove: Armor Plated is a good choice. It basically has power gems on the cuff and back of hand.

    Glow effect on them looks good in leather or metal.

    The thing about Cassie's costume is that it is just a redesign of Donna Troy's.

    Both Wonder Girls use a simple design of a solid color costume accented by "Armoured Elements".

    Similar to that, Valkyrie from Marvel comics also uses a simple design with "Armour".

    I have thrown together a design that uses a simple design accented by "Armoured Elements". I used the "Diode" pattern to give the costume some detail, and made all the element "metal". The ancient armour used as bracers and boot has a glowing element.

    Please note the Blue tattoo's on the arms. The Scottish used to believe the tattoos provided magic armour

    And using a red cape to accent this design would be my preference.
