[QUOTE="TDRandall, post: 1795396, member: 4808"] The wheels keep turning.... Twin tumblers: These two cups are linked over any distance on the same plane such that when a person drinks from one they taste what is in their cup but gain effects from whatever is in the twin. Effects bestowed can be magical in nature (if the twin holds a potion - the magic of the potion is still expended), nutrition depriving (the twin is filled with air so the drinker continues to dehydrate), life helping (the cup drank is filled with poison but it's twin is filled with a neutral liquid) or hurting (reverse the cups in the above example), or even a good way to drink even a dwarf under the table (you have ale or mead in yours but the twin elsewhere has air or water). Vanishing ink: This ink fades to invisibility four round after being placed on a page. It never becomes visible again, under any circumstance, but still causes the page it is upon to register as magical. Scarf of fashion: This scarf can be worn around the neck or head and instantly changes itself to match color or style with other clothing worn. Works well with "Istara's pumps of fashion", which has similar effects. (Actually, there are probably many men who wish their wives had those shoes. Think of it, a woman needing only one pair of shoes in the closet becuase it will go with ANYTHING!) Scarab of life detection: This broach detects the nearest source of life. Unless the wearer is undead, it inevitably detects the wearer. Lens of pigmentation: These lenses allow the wearer to choose the current perceived color of their eye(s) covered by the lens(es). Potion of hair growth: Gives benefits to disguise checks, as imbibing this potion causes the rapid growth of real hair upon the drinker's head in whatever locations they desire (eyebrows, mustache, beard, top of head, even ears and nose). Color matches drinkers real hair (random color if being is completely hairless, but all hair will be of same color), and while growth is limited to two inches in any place the effects are permanent until trimmed or cut. Credited to Archwizard Ro' e'Gaine. Scales of Inequality: These scales look like any merchants scales, except they will NEVER register as balanced, no matter what is placed on either side. It's companion is the "Scales of Equality", which always end up registering as balanced, no matter what is placed on both sides. Either moves just enough when materials are placed within it to satisfy any casual watchers that the scales should be legitimate, and some item must be placed into both sides. Scales of equal value: No matter the physical weight of the objects placed on both sides of the scale, the scales balance when the monetary value is equal on both sides. (ok, maybe this one IS of some use!) [/QUOTE]
