[QUOTE="Nyaricus, post: 3136951, member: 35678"] So, I was reading that new [url=http://www.shamusyoung.com/twentysidedtale/?p=612]DM of the Rings[/url] comic strip, and laughed a bit at reading this part: You see, after reading a thread about this awhile back, I did the same for my D&D group; I handed out some minor, but nearly useless magic items. Among them were: [list][*] A knife which would not cut living flesh, but would never dull no matter how much one may use it. [*] A candle which never lost any wax. You could burn it forever, and it still wouldn't loose any. [*] A small pouch which, every morning, would have a half-dozen beans in it. If you ate these beans, you only needed a small meal in the evening, it woudl sustain you for the rest of the day. You still needed to drink water though. [*] A piece of chalk which never ran out. [*] and some other little bauble which I can't remember[/list] So, all very minor things. I think the knife and the beans saw the most use in that (unfortunatly short-lived) campaign. In any case, what kinds of minor magical baubles have been in your campaigns? Anything interesting? Anything used in an interesting way? I'm just interested, since in a D&D world, you'd figure stuff like this might be mroe commonplace, and I want to gather some ideas from EN World here, no to mention share some of your great ideas with one another :D cheers, --N [/QUOTE]
