Random Enounter!  The second the player saw that the appentice had at least one more they went after him with all possible haste to aquire just one of these great bags.  So much fun.  More fun than a well... Bag of Zombies!Another Item I created for fun was the goblin stick of wonder.  A 3' stick decorated with feathers and dreamcatchers and shells and sparkly rocks and all sorts of junk.  When it hit someone they make a will save.  If they fail roll 1d61 Permanently red2 permanently blue3 Permanently YEllow4 Permanetly Purple5 Permanetly green6 -- another radom effect roll percentile01-50 permanently 1d550-60 Speak with animals60-70 1d4 gems fall out70-80 1d6 lightning damage81-82 Summon a t-rex you do not control83-84 opposed will saves loser becomes a mouse for 2d6 rounds85-00 you (user) shrink by 50% They didn't understand when a goblin slowly ventured up and tapped one of them.  Thy threw the stick back.  The goblins ambushed them down the beach.  The shaman with the stick hit a player.  me;  You turn bluePlayer  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f615.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":confused:" title="Confused    :confused:"  data-smilie="5"data-shortname=":confused:" /> Really?me; yes they went through so much to get that stick.  then they fought over it then one tried hiting another player to run through the spectrum it was hilarious.  Another set of tiems was in the church of istica; the plumed wonder A collection plate with suggestion donateA podium with chrm personA mural on the back wall that suggestioned them to stay and listeen to your friend preach.  It was a church of wizards who were extorting money from players.  Of course all of the wizards and "clerics" of the church were very pompous, a guady.  And then when a player fell to the will saves was priceless.  Especially when the monk kept failing will saves and had no money.  He just sat their, as an addition the place was protected by a massive sanctuary spell, to keep these "clerics" safe from anyone that resisted the much more minor suggestions.  Feel free to post your own here as well maybe we can idea share and get some really great, really kooky items to use...</blockquote>
