[QUOTE="EzekielRaiden, post: 6800300, member: 6790260"] I'm glad you liked those examples, [MENTION=12283]Illithidbix[/MENTION]. A user on RPG.net (where I originally posted those ideas) made a blogpost about similar things, which you can read [URL="http://d-infinity.net/blog/derek-holland/metals-and-materials-magic-item-creation-add"]here[/URL]. I, too, really liked at least the idea of the tables in the 5e playtest--adding a light touch of character to every weapon. I don't think I would necessarily use them all the time, but they provide a useful tool whenever you want to help make a magic weapon exist as more than a functional tool. At the same time, I think the "magic materials" approach is a slightly better choice for a handful of reasons. One of the simplest is just that I feel it makes intuitive sense that certain materials need to "bond" to someone in order to function at full capacity. [/QUOTE]
