Adjustment to batteries. Roll a percentage. Either the gun deals extra damage but uses more power than it should or does normal damage and uses more power than it should. Fun little gamble.
Was thinking about the same thing earlier today, that was one I liked.
He builds a rickety jetpack where every turn he uses it, you roll a d20. If some arbitrairy number comes up (say 3 or lower), it moves at full speed in a random direction instead of where he wants to be going.
A forceshield that has a 15% chanse to reflect his own shots back at him rather than deflecting other people's shots
A landmine that might explode, or might just pop up a little flag that goes 'Ha-Ha!'
A jet-powered hammer that on a low enough roll blasts itself violently out of his hand (and possibly into his face)
Magnetic boots that can randomly go over or under their normal strenght, leaving him either unable to pull his feet off or randomly blowing away
This help you any?

Flaws are adjustments to an item that are detrimental in nature. Most are similar to curses, but not nearly as damaging or restrictive to the bearer. Whenever a challenge would add a flaw to an item, roll on the following table. In general, the more harmful flaws have higher numbers on the table. Reroll duplicates and flaws that do not fit the item. Feel free to invent your own flaws or simply choose an appropriate one.
Accumulating Flaws: The more flaws the item has, the more likely it is to become cursed. For each flaw beyond the first, add a cumulative +5 modifier to the d% roll until the item gains a curse (after which the +5 modifiers no longer apply). When you decide to create a new flaw or choose an appropriate one rather than rolling, you should still roll first to determine whether the item gains a curse instead.
