Amazing Loot Ideas

Although I'm not actively DMing plots and running stuff IG, I occasionally crack open the toolset on my spare time to do some random scripting. (My latest project was that dartboard game.) Lately, one of the things I've been looking forward to is making particularly interesting loot that cannot be achieved by normal means of the toolset. Although I've conceived many ideas of awesome loot, many of them cannot be implemented for whatever reason. So, I could use some inspiration, and would like your help!

If you think up a piece of crazy, amazing loot that cannot be done using the standard item properties found in the toolset, post your idea here! I cannot guarantee I'll do it, or that it can even be done, but your ideas may inspire other ideas, which will help add to what I hope will be a flurry of crazy awesome stuff to appear in EFUA in the coming months.

Feel free to post your ideas, even if you are absolutely sure that it is impossible to achieve, or even if the idea is ridiculously overpowered. Items can be of any genre, be it weapon, armor, miscellaneous, potions, wands, etc.


To give you an example:

Intelligent Armor. The armor holds a spirit inside it that protects its wearer. When the wearer is near death, the armor will heal its wearer once, and put the wearer under the guise of invisibility.

The boots of the Wanna be Drunk- -2 dex, +2 Con, Decreased speed by 10% Permanent Drunken effect (-2 intelligence.)

Relinquish

Chainmail that has an ability like blood frenzy, but along with blood frenzy makes the PC glow red and gives a moderate speedboost, however the penalty afterwards is a -2 con and speed decrease which lasts for 5 IG hours.

Cast Chaos Spell - Once/day - Random level 1 arcane spell.

I always liked the legendary weapon stuff...the more you can learn about it, the more powers are unlocked! Or powers go up/ level.

SirBerengar

Sentient weapons, imo. Preferably ones prone to trolling the wielder and their enemies mid combat.

Sandstorm

A helmet that makes you say things when you put it on.

The Crimson Magician

clothes that make you perform random emotes

Kiaring

This may be a possibility as of right now. Metal balls that have an AoE knockdown effect on creatures of any size except Huge (to Huge creatures the metal balls are perceived as nothing more than nuisances). Reflex save (maybe 14? 13?) vs. knockdown. They are a granadelike weapon, though I'm not sure what sort of a graphic they may have IG.

Winston Martin

Cursed equipment (which isn't revealed on description) that needs a remove curse to take off.

Cursed equipment which forces a will save vs WEAPON EGO or change to weapons alignment.

Scripted Fat Traps

Girdle of Femininity/Masculinity

Caddies

Winston's onto a winner with fat traps.

This broad leather band seems to be a normal belt, but when worn, it immediately changes the sex of the wearer to the opposite gender. It then loses all power. There is no sure way to restore the character's original sex, though there is a 50% chance that a wish might, and a powerful being could alter the situation. Of these girdles, 10% actually neuter the wearer.
