More filigree! Heeheehee!!!

Just had the same item in the same spot. Was kind of funny.

Directly copied from an anime...

This item is kind of a simple, neat idea, with a garbage name. But a clear keep compared to the rest I've seen.

What anime was it copied from?

Good night all...

Scarab Sages RPG Superstar 2013 , Dedicated Voter Season 6, Dedicated Voter Season 7, Dedicated Voter Season 8, Star Voter Season 9 aka Steven T. Helt

I have an idea: I won't buy the magic item, and just put ranks in the class skill that does a better job!

Don't want to go into too much detail right now.


Ah, there's a joke item. I was getting a little sad that everyone else was getting them and I wasn't. All the joke items I've seen thus far were unintentionally funny.

Star Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Star Voter Season 9

Just saw one that was well-written and sounded descriptively cool- but didn't really do anything. :(

RPG Superstar 2014 , Dedicated Voter Season 6, Dedicated Voter Season 7 aka Belladonna Blue

Ooo. One creepy item I would not be surprised to see in Top 32.

Scarab Sages RPG Superstar 2013 , Dedicated Voter Season 6, Dedicated Voter Season 7, Dedicated Voter Season 8, Star Voter Season 9 aka Steven T. Helt

There's an item I've seen a couple of times now...and I hate it. But up against it? An item, called by a core spell's name, that does what the core spell does, and doesn't use the core spell as a crafting requirement.

So...over-powered, under-explained item I hate it is.


Okay, and with that, as Popeye says, I've had all I can stands; I can stands no more. Good night all.

Star Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Star Voter Season 9

It's kind of weird when a SIAC requires more words to describe its effect than the spell it is mimicking.

Star Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Star Voter Season 9

Lots of umbrellas this year, too. Maybe I'm spoiled by living in California- were there all sorts of crazy and unusual storms this year in most other parts of the globe?

Star Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Star Voter Season 9

I hate when people read aloud in public. I'm not sure I like magic items that force me to do it, too. :p

(Just kidding. It's actually not a bad item.)

Scarab Sages RPG Superstar 2013 , Dedicated Voter Season 6, Dedicated Voter Season 7, Dedicated Voter Season 8, Star Voter Season 9 aka Steven T. Helt

A creepy item that seemed like a dud at first. But after reading it, mrsancientsensei and I BOTH said "actually, that's pretty cool".

Now it's probably my favorite so far.

Marathon Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Marathon Voter Season 9

Just up-voted an item with major formatting errors over an item with perfect format due to the fact that it had chutzpah...

Star Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Star Voter Season 9

I feel like the timer is getting longer each time I vote. No matter that it is telling me it is only 1 minute.

Dedicated Voter Season 7, Star Voter Season 9

Just saw one of those rare over-word-count items. I guess if you don't plan to follow the word limit rules, the format rules must not be too important either.

Star Voter Season 7

Lets take the best bits of this class... and just give them to whoever wears the macguffin... oh, and make it cheap.

Star Voter Season 7

You know I can honestly say I've seen a couple of items that I wasn't sure were jokes because they were funny but at the same time I really want them and the joke wasn't necessarily the focus of the item but SO MANY spells in cans

Star Voter Season 6, Star Voter Season 7

Found an anime ripoff and a joke item.

And one item that somehow tries to be a wondrous item...even though the slot and name say otherwise.

Marathon Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Marathon Voter Season 9

Ran into an item way way over 200,000 gp....

Star Voter Season 6, Star Voter Season 7

Also, don't know if anyone has asked this yet in this thread, but is the proper protocol to have an em-dash for slotless, or "none"? Thus far, I've seen quite a few of both (though the em-dashes are usually hyphens or double hyphens).

Slot-less is none as of the third? printing of the CRB I believe, however it used to be an em-dash.

Star Voter Season 6, Star Voter Season 7

SIAK and makes adventuring easier?

Sovereign Court RPG Superstar 2013 Top 4, RPG Superstar 2011 Top 16 , Dedicated Voter Season 6, Star Voter Season 7 aka primemover003

Hmm, smell vs taste. Goblins or gnomes? Goblins of course!

Thanks! That would explain it...I wasn't putting too much weight on that at any rate.

Along with whips...COWLS FOR EVERYONE!

I Just voted for and kept a very tongue in cheek item as I was surprised to find but it was done very very well.

This is what people are striving for with the addition of some humor.

Star Voter Season 6, Star Voter Season 7

"Stuff"? Not inspiring writing...

Star Voter Season 6, Star Voter Season 7

Hmmmm...I like this one, but you forgot to italicize your spells. Good writing, though, and creative.

OMG, *Red Alert* *Red Alert* *Siren*, nightmare GM item sighted.

No, just NO!

Star Voter Season 6, Star Voter Season 7

Alas...this one had good visuals, and an interesting premise...but ultimately ended up being a combo SIAK and SAK.

Star Voter Season 7

Made entirely of *redacted*.... oh, except for this bit, and that bit, and this other bit.

Star Voter Season 6, Star Voter Season 7

And on my previous note...
It doesn't matter if you gain the spell's effects in a novel way; if you say "you gain the effects of..." then it's still just a SIAK. Which can work, but you're kind of crippling yourself from the start. It's just plain harder to make a SIAK a Superstar item.

Star Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Star Voter Season 9

An item that does magically pretty much exactly what its mundane purpose is for. Fortunately, it was up against a similarly unimaginative item, and did it in much less verbiage. So by default, you win!

Wow, found a 50 word item.

Marathon Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Marathon Voter Season 9

More cursed items yeah....

Star Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Star Voter Season 9

Joke item + SIAC = Not a winner. :(

Star Voter Season 6, Star Voter Season 7

"This class should be able to do this thing they do all the time! With my item, they can!"

"This item is really a clever way to help out the GM with bookkeeping."

Star Voter Season 6, Star Voter Season 7

Hmmmm...while the name is pretty uninspired, the language is phenomenal. Also, I like that it references mechanics from newer books...makes it that much more novel.

Star Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Star Voter Season 9

This one had a really great name but the item was kind of a letdown. :(

Star Voter Season 6, Star Voter Season 7

That item...doesn't really seem all that helpful. No wonder it's super-cheap!

Star Voter Season 6, Star Voter Season 7

Got my first repeat item. Definitely haven't voted on them all.

Star Voter Season 6, Star Voter Season 7

Hmmmm...gross, bodily fluid item, or gross, non-bodily fluid item?
