Gloves of Wringing
It is said that these gloves will protect your equipment from water damage. but don't ever wear them with wet clothes on. Its a save vs death magic for 25d8 of wringing damage as the gloves start at your feet and continue to wring.

Yea,
I wanted them to include my old 2nd ed Squirrel Spell Helm (I was even willing to update it to 3.5). Alas, a court order later I'm no longer able to call them several hundred times a day.
So here it is (not updated):
History: Shortly after the Time of Troubles a bully of a mageling
terrorized various small hamlets all along the Sword Coast. Brogin the
Bold he called himself, though he was of little talent (CE Hm M(Trans)-5;
Int 15), and of little heart. He took great joy in tormenting those weaker
than himself, and took great pains to avoid anyone of magical power. He
was able to kill his previous teacher, as spells grew chaotic during the
Avatars' Fall. He also assumed control of most of his master items of
magic. His preferred tactic was to go to a small village, and extort the
local farmers for all they had. If any refused he used a Wand of
Polymorphing to turn them into a squirrel and then blast them with his
Master's Wand of Magic Missiles. He was unchallenged for nearly 6 months
before his doom came.
Sholicit, the "Almost Competent", as he liked to be called, (CN Hm
M(Wild)-21), was staying at a local inn, the Drunken Goat, when Brogin came
to town demanding all the village's gold, and the Mayor's House. Hearing
and witnessing the commotion, Sholicit assumed the form of a bulky cow hand
and took a place at the lead of the mob congregating around the Brogin. As
Brogin began to fire his Wand at villagers, one of his bolts leaped
directly at Sholicit, but bounced off his protective spells and rebounded
at Brogin. Eyes bulging from his head, Brogin was transformed into a
squirrel, and summarily zapped to death from a lightning spell from
Sholicit. He believed that the once-mage could be made into something,
thus was the Squirrel Spellhelm made.
Appearance: The Squirrel Spellhelm appears as a flattened squirrel skin
cap (similar in appearance to a very small bear skin rug). However, the
tail sticks straight up, and is bushed out like a bottle brush. The Head
is complete, and the expression on the squirrel's face is one of utter
terror (as much as a squirrel can have a terrified expression). Around each
of the squirrels legs, a small strap of leather is tied just above the paw,
that allows the squirrel to be securely fastened to the top of one's head.
Powers: When worn by anyone, the wearer gain the following special benefits;
+1 to saves vs. Alteration Spells.
If worn by any type of Mage: +1 to Alteration Spell Saves
-1 to opponents saves vs. alteration spells
+15% to learn spells rolls for spells from the Alteration School.
Finally, if worn by a generalist mage, in addition to the following powers
gains the following ability:
May memorize one additional 1st, 2nd, & 3rd level Spell from the School of
Alteration.

Drizzt's Dual Man-catchers.
Not many people know that before he mastered the twin-scimitar style that made him the subject of fanboy wet dreams everywhere, Drizzt Do'Urden experimented with dual man-catchers. Experience proved that they were a bit unwieldy, especially in the tight spaces of the Underdark, leading to further trials with dual glaives, dual longspears, dual saps, and dual shuriken. (The latter may have made him almost as popular with his fans, due to a phenomenon known as "ninja overlap," but Drizzt never studied how to actually throw the shuriken.)
