It's original, but I think it has the same problem as the Starstone one that was mentioned. It's not the shoehorn that's the focus in this case, it's the spell since the spell could be put on anything. So I'd have to say it doesn't count. but it's Jade's list, not mine. so whatever he says.

It's not my list... I'm just obsessive about all things shoehorn ever since the footwear famine of '23.

...in pairs they make dandy impromptu castanets when the bard misplaces his lute ...

...the rogue uses one (highly polished) to peek around the corner ...

... Ogress d'Lovely takes the shoehorns of her fallen enemies and makes them into a necklace. While they do smell as bad as a necklace of ears, they do jingle and look nice for a night on the town ...

... after that dreadful "Bard's black arrow" bit of TA 2941, cautious dragons have been attaching these as replacement scales ...

... the halfling got stuck in the bathtub drain again - better get the scoop ...

... novice rangers affix them to their thumbs whilst practicing archery ...

... material components for those unpopular "Bigby's Smelly Foot" spells ...


97?: Helmet to protect against government's/evil wizard's mind probing rays.

The Exchange

While we're on the subject, some very rare and little-known trivia:

The COBBLER Elves, as they were known by in the original spelling, didn't have a whole lot of start-up capital when they decided to get out of Old Man McGinty's shoes and into cookies and thus were forced to use materials on hand. While the cookies were uncommonly delicious, people just couldn't get over the fact that they were using the shoehorns as mixers and spatulas! After getting together with an image consultant, they were convinced to change their name to break with the old image, and to get a loan to buy real bakery equipment.

To this day, you can still see thier original "Waffle Stomper" tread patterns on their KEEBLER Fudge Stripes cookies.

Uncommonly made, indeed!

Tripping hazard when you run out of marbles ... just leave it upside down on a staircase and when something runs to try and get you CRASH, BOOM, BANG ... then you go down, kill and loot.
