[pekkae]

Here's a few suggestions for new Items for upcoming releases. I tried to keep it civil without overflowing things.

And yes, I'm a big fan of improving things as they move along.

The Ecologies of Sikret & Critto - a tome with descriptions of new monsters on IA and how to defeat them
^If the majority of the work related to this is gathering the information. My suggestion is to open a thread on this forum and crowdsource it. I’m happy to write a page myself. I think Dequ opened up a dropbox link already for a monster manual

*** and last but not least ***

The Trump Card (a random drop somewhere, usable in quick-item slot)

The inscription of the card says written on capital letters “THIS CARD HAS 200 CHARGES”

Once a high master of the cult “Gobblers Of Pazuzu” created this device. While he had received the rank of “high master” in the cult, the high master’s credentials were in practice non-existent. Such was his shortcoming, that this was the only magical device the high master was able to create, though he had spent his entire life trying to create magical devices. Later on, the high master tried purveying his non-existent results by continuously going on non-coherent ramblings, to anyone who would listen, about how wonderful his item was: “This is a great Item, a wonderful item, the best item. We have done a great job, a marvelous job, a job that might be the best. Such a good job we have done, it has been wonderful”.

A number of user’s of the card later reported, that even though the card was sold to them as having 200 charges in reality there were only 2 charges the high master’s response was that the user’s had been mistaken, did not how to properly use the card, were “bad hombres”, had treated him unfairly and that they were on “a witch hunt to get him” accepting zero responsibility for the shortcomings of his device.

While the defenders of the “high master” in the Faerun press (the “Vulpes Vulpes News” among others) would describe the various beneficial aspects of the device by highlighting that “there’s a good chance a clan spirit appears to fight for the user”, “there’s a chance to make a fortune” or “you might get a positively affecting spell cast on you” In reality, almost everything the device does has a negative or a very negative outcome on the user or the party to such an extent, that any outcome that doesn’t have an adverse effect can be seen as a win.

You have to be desperate, with no other choices really, to play the Trump Card.

A random effect from the following (2 charges):

25% Party loses all gold (if party has less than 10,000 gp)
25% Summons a clan spirit (an intoxicated goblin called “proud boy” with 1 hp under the effect of berserking (it might attack the party)) to “fight” for the user
15% User healed for 2 hp, greater malision & 5 x horror cast on the party
15% Disintegrate on everyone in the area including party members
5% Everyone on the area has their int & wis scores reduced to 3 (can be cured with greater resurrection). Save against Death. (Treated as a 1st level spell). Doesn’t bypass magic resistance.
5% Cure medium wounds cast on the user, -5 to wisdom and -5 to charisma for 50 game hours on the user (non dispel-able, non curable)
4% A random useless item added to user’s inventory (worn out boos, skull, history of the north book, 1 bullet)
3% User gets the spell “infravision” cast on him/her
2% The whole party goes into panic
1% if the party has more than 500.000gp, party gains 10.000gp
