#1 Slit518 May 24, 2015 10:42:01	So, I decided to give the party some magical items after reaching a certain milestone in HotDQ. There are 4 members, so I gave 4 items, Cape Bracers Belt Boots What should I do with these items?  I have some ideas but I'd also like to hear some of your ideas.  Who knows, perhaps I may use your idea(s).   My idea for the Boots, they grant Advantage on Initiative rolls, and once an encounter the player can move double their movement speed when they take a move action.   The Cape I am thinking it should grant Resistance on falling damage.   The Belt I feel should have a Potion (2d4+2) HP replenish and be usable once an encounter.  Alternatively it can be used outside of combat once a day.  At level 8 the Potion upgrades to a Greater Potion and at level 16 a Superior Potion.   The Bracers I feel should grant the attacker Advantage on the first attack of an encounter as well as granting a +1 bonus to Armor Class.   Let me know what you think of mine, as well as post your own!
