The Brooch of Shielding (10 force resist, daily, gain 10 resist to an area, close, or ranged attack as an immediate interrupt) and the Cloak of Distortion (ranged attacks from over 5 squares away take -5 to hit you) are excellent neck items for people who don't like being sniped.
The Skull Mask is a nifty item for Starlocks. 5 necrotic resist, +1 to Intimidate, and enemies who can see you take a -2 penalty to saves versus fear effects, of which Starlocks get a lot.
