I’m thinking of an item cursed from the malevolent intent/process in its creation. But the sentience imbuing it is not malevolent and keeps trying to find a way to keep its wielders alive and find a way beyond the trauma from creation.

First introduction to what I would call Fantasy was probably reading the Hobbit in late elementary school. Why did I read the Hobbit? Did I watch the animated version first? I have no idea. I had a weird roll and move Hobbit boardgame that was illustrated with pictures from the animated movie (I think) as a child - maybe that inspired me. I have no idea.

As an even younger child, I was fascinated by the Dr. Seuss book, the Lorax. Depending on the definition, I guess I could call that the first fantasy book that I remember enjoying.

One I have but haven't played is Archived, "a solo journaling game where you tell the story of a book, map, or other article found in the library". Both it and Artefact are Lost & Found games, so for something similar that would be a good place to start.

The closest I've come with an actual play is a playthrough of Sacred Forge where I forged a magical weapon. I actually used the Sword of Light in the solo game with Renfrey. Solo RPG crossovers are fun! A different crossover would be to use Sacred Forge to create the item whose journey is then explored in Artefact.

Not played it, but been intrigued by it since seeing one of it used in this year's Youtube Solo Relay (where 10 solo oriented creators played a chapter in a 10 part story)

Ah, that's easy. My first introduction was The Chronicles of Narnia, specifically The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe from the ages of about 3 to 5 or a little older. My dad read all of the books to my brothers and I a couple of times as a bed time story, and it was the first novel I ever read. I don't remember how old I was when I first read it but I was no older than 8 when it happened because it was before my family moved out of state, which occurred late in my 8th year.

I think I'd like to go evil/cursed on the next play. I wouldn't necessarily get some of the same prompts, like denying a keeper's request and causing their demise, but I'm sure there's lots of narrative room for the object to cause the end of a keeper.

Would also be cool to use this to build some history on a magic item and then drop it into a different game

Playing a cursed magic item might have some good story potential. I do not know of any other RPGs to recommend where one plays an object.
