What about a container using the Alchemist's Fire Barrel model from Hordes of the Underdark? Effectively a mobile container placeable you could load stuff into then pick up, with content weight reduction from the fact you push it, but a heavy base weight?

[COLOR="firebrick"]Silk armor[/COLOR]
This material is light and difficult to work with during construction but worth the effort when complete as it is as tough yet light, durable and easy to move around in.
+0 AC
8 max dex
-0 ACP
5% spell failure
Feats req: none
Base item: armor
5 lbs
+1 AC (deflection modifier)
Bonus feat: Deflect Arrows


//Note: In a nutshell its basically only padded armor with a kicker of deflect arrows that monks, wizards and sorcerers can wear due to no armor feat requirement. I picture this as a kind of silky clothing that is lose fitting making it easy to misjudge where somebody is striking and the silkiness even steers some weapons away (maybe something on the line of a silk gei or robes).

A few things. First, it's not possible to remove the proficiency feat requirements on an item, so wizards and sorcerers could not use this. Second, AC bonuses are of a type specific to the item: boots have Dodge AC; amulets have Natural AC; Shields and Armor (or clothing, or bracers) have Shield or Armor; everything else has deflection.

If this was a clothing item with deflect arrows and +1 AC, that could be very interesting.

Sr.N

Make it a cloak, give it bonus feat: Deflect Arrows and a -2 Dex, and you could say it is a Parrying Cloak.

I suggested that in another server, even.

Equinox

Pirate's scimitar: This be the scimitar of a pirate! YARRR

+2 intimidate
3 charges of blood frenzy (7)
-2 persuade

Gullible Righteousness

Pointed Cutlass (Scimitar)
 
This cutlass has an incredibly sharp point, even if the blade is somewhat dulled. It appears to be slightly magical, even, shining brilliant colors.
 
-1 Slashing Damage
 
+1 Piercing Damage
 
Persuade +1
 
Color Spray, 3 Charges

Luke Danger

Some Iron Ore

Iron Ore. This may be useful.

misc medium (4 squares)

Pretty much just to suggest that some monsters are carrying a small sample of ore.

tooh

Seeds

We have garlic, why not some shrubs of spices like cinnamon, salvia and pepper, and tobbaco for pipes ?

Luke Danger

Nightriser Bone

This bone is somewhat enchanted. . .

misc medium bone
1 use of inflict light wounds

[COLOR="firebrick"]Heart of the Paladin[/COLOR]
This ring is silver with a heart shaped ruby.
+1 Heal
+1 persuade
Smite Evil 1/day
Usable by good

Note: although at first glance one might think smite evil is a bit much but remember that without at least a 12+ charisma and at least one level of paladin smite evil is basically useless. So basically this would be a paladin only ring unless somebody (good) wanted to wear it for the heal and persuade skill bonuses.
Side note: I guess a good bard or sorcerer (or whatever) might be able to use it (smite evil) and get their cha bonus added to their attack but the damage bonus is per paladin level so???


[COLOR="firebrick"]Gauntlets of the Watcher[/COLOR]
Plate gauntlets with an eye etched into the backs of the hand portion. (These gauntlets are prized by priests and paladins of Helm as they can be used as a Helm holy symbol.)
Light 15’
Ultra-vision
See invisible 1/day
Usable by lawful

Luke Danger

Night-bane arrows

These arrows are old, but they are still useful. They are tipped with a few small, special, runes that allow it to release a healing spell upon impact with a foe. Unfortunetly, this means they are all but useless against anything other then nightrisers.

Arrow
On hit: Cast Cure Light Wounds

Make these somewhat rare, but not too rare.

Here's my crack at some "Good" or generic loot, especially talismans,  to be found in chests, having been stolen by undead, orcs, etc. All of this is balanced off the properties of Evil loot I've seen.

Talisman of Valkur
A salt-encrusted token of the Captain of the Waves
+1 Heal
+1 Spot
+2 Fear Saves
Call Lightning (5) Single Use
Only useable by: Good

Talisman of Amaunator
10 Charges
Light (5) 1 charge/use
Searing Light (5) 5 charges/use
Light (dim) 5m yellow


Mail of the Lost Crusader
Old, dented mail of a divine champion who fell battling the Undead
Chainmail (rusty metal, golden cloth and leather, missing parts)
+1AC vs Evil
Some 1st level spell (PfE, mage Weapon, Summon, Cure Light?) 1/day
+2 saves vs Fear
+1 saves vs Negative Energy
Light, dim, 5m, White
Only useable by: Good

Mace of the Slayer
Blessed by an unknown champion to smite the undead, this weapon didn't seem to have saved its last wielder.
+1 bludgeoning dmg vs Undead
Bonus level 0 spell slot: Cleric
Bonus lvl 1 spell slot: Cleric
Only useable by: Good, Neutral

That Mail is awesome. Too awesome. Drop the magic weapon, and it would be a lot better. Maybe throw in a 5m yellow light.
