Message: <blockquote data-quote="Jürgen Hubert" data-source="post: 2288860" data-attributes="member: 7177">I could some help with an adventure I am currently planning.Basically, the party in my Forgotten Realms campaign will enter an old habitat of an ancient race of serpent people (the ancestors of the yuan-ti), and I need some good enigmatic devices for the PCs to play around with. This old race was very advanced in the discipline of psionics, and the devices should reflect that, and the whole trip should feel similar as if modern-day people were wandering around a stranded alien spaceship - lots of weird gadgets without any description what they are for and how to use them.Mind you, I'm not looking for "standard" magic items or some high-tech weaponry here (I don't want to introduce anything that could be recognizable as high-tech gadgetry - all "technology" should be psionic and alien in nature). Instead, I'm looking for things like a Scale Moisturizer (squeeze it and it will cover your entire body with a thin layer of ectoplasmic goo) - items that were useful to the serpent folk, and usually less so to humans. The PCs might be able to put some to use if they come up with a good plan and are able to think on their feet. Others should have inconvenient side effects (after all, they were not made for humans), and others will be downright dangerous to operate.Does anyone have any good ideas?</blockquote>
