Item Of Power Master List
ways and means:
Thieves Heart [-4]
It is what it is?
A Crystalline Heart said to have been ripped from a thieving prince of Fairies by a rather irate Mab. The heart looks like an egg sized diamond.
+1 Concealable Item of Power
Feeding Dependance (theft) +1 the owner of this heart inherits the thief princes incredible kleptomania
Affecting:
Greater Glamours [-4]
Thieves Invite [-?] For a thief a strong lock or armed guards are considered all the invitation one needs, the owner of the heart is considered invited into any secure place.
Sanctaphrax:
The heart is cool, though I really don't know how to price the invite power.
You know, it is amazing to me how many fan-made items of power use powers that were created specifically for those items.
Anyway...the box probably still won't work. Items Of Power grant powers to their bearers. What power does the box grant? Can you use it like a gun, opening it at people?
The Eye Of God is looking better, but I think that True Seeing is overpriced now.
The Skates are also looking better, but I think that Skate Pro is probably too pricey. 1 Refresh for +2 is standard.
Not entirely sure how Magical Skating works. Is the +2 on difficult terrain cumulative with the +3 to sprinting? It might be better to phrase the difficult terrain bit as penalty negation.
Mr. Death:
I make no apologies. I'm in a very silly mood and have Dr. McNinja on the brain.
