[QUOTE="elrobey, post: 3973894, member: 8725"] Creating a permanent magic item should work much like the "item familiar" rules from Unearthed Arcana: First, you must establish, by taking certain feats/talents/skills, the ability to create magic items. Then, you can create magic items all you like, by essentially transferring your own feats/talents/skills into the item. So, if you are fighter and want to create a "sword of spring attacking", you would take the "create magic arms and armor" feat (and perhaps also establish a certain skill level in appropriate Craft), and you could then transfer your own "spring attack" feat into the sword. Voila, sword of spring attacking. Possible sidebar rule: If you are using a magic item that you yourself have created, you enjoy some sort of power boost on top of what you have transferred; but if the item is destroyed, you not only lose the power boost, but suffer an additional permanent penalty. For example, when a dark lord creates a One Ring To Rule Them All, the dark lord gets a power boost, that he enjoys even when he loses the ring; but when the ring is destroyed, the power boost goes away and the dark lord suffers additional penalties besides. Another possible sidebar rule: In some situations, a magic item can be created spontaneously by a sort of "epic osmosis". For example, the sword of a legendary hero might over the years spontaneously acquire some of the legendary hero's mojo. [/QUOTE]
