Here's a plot bunny I thought up last night. I hope someone finds it useful.
The setup: the party finds a pair of magic boots (or gloves or bracers or ...), the mage casts Identify, and the result comes up something useful. A PC duly tries them on and hilarity ensues as a curse is inflicted. If the PCs think to look more closely, they will spot that while the boots are very similar they are not, in fact, a pair, but two halves of two pairs. The hunt is then on for the other halves. Casting Identify on each boot in turn will also spot the issue and tell which is which.
