1. The Book Of Throwing: Ranged (Str, Con, or Dex mod, whichever is highest.); (aforementioned stat) v. AC; 1d20 damage.

2. Bombchu: Area burst 2 within 10; +3 vs. Reflex; 1d8+2 Fire damage.

(note; these items were given to a 6th/7th level party. Are they under or overpowered? Or just right?)

Jul 21, 2009 20:24:16 Dunno about the Book, but the Bombchu (ell oh ell, Zelda reference amirite) is like a less accurate, weaker Alchemist's Fire with a smaller area of effect.
(Alchemist's fire being burst 1 within 10, +9 vs. reflex, 2d6 fire damage half on miss, for a level 6 consumable).

4. Summoned Monster-in-a-box: This device looks like a jack in the box. Turning the crank makes it play "Pop! goes the weasel," but as soon as the song ends a Summon Monster spell is cast to summon a dire weasel.

In the same dungeon no less, the party received a few of these:

6: Stone Mask: Head Slot (duh). Gives +15 to Stealth checks to hide from nonhostile creatures.

7: Bunny Hood: Head Slot. Gives +1 to speed.

8: Lens of Truth: Wondrous Item. User is immune to all Illusion effects and perceives no illusions. (TEH BROKENZ!!!)

9: Magic Beans: Also known as the Instant Ladder. Just add water!

Now for some non-Zelda items:

10: Infinite Bag of Ale Holding: ...seriously, that's what it does.

Jul 21, 2009 22:38:29 Garden Rake: 1d10 Damage, Spear, Reach

Brass Knuckles: 1d6 Damage, Unarmed, Brutal 1

Tommy Gun: 1d12 Damage, 10/20, Firearm, Brutal 2

Guess what game and get a cookie.

Oh, and just for kicks:

Crowbar: 1d10 Damage, Pick, Brutal 3, High Crit
Special: This weapon deals an extra die of damage to undead.

I have also constructed this ~~handheld portal device~~ cake for your using pleasure.
