The most heinous, terrible, and eldritch wizard porn. In fact, it's so powerful, legends say that every picture you look at will eat away one of your memories and replace it with itself, but even despite that, you'll always be compelled to turn to the next page.

10,000 arrows dropped from a kilometer's altitude? You /MIGHT/ hit someone though it'd be really unlikely.

>>27467654
Honestly at that level of prep. you're either completely overdoing it for an enemy that doesn't warrant it, or using it on an enemy so big it doesn't really affect it as much

At that point it becomes less "a hundred thousand arrows" and more "A giant mass of wood plated with a bit of iron", the only thing it'd be really good against is an army of sorts (which, incidentally, was what the original poster of the storm quiver used it for)

My group has "ponchos of holding". It functions like a bag of holding, but you can wear it like a normal poncho.

We came up with it after a description of some NPCs our DM gave us. These guys in the abyss met up with us as part of the plot to kill the BBEG, and one of them pulled all these things out from under his poncho that didn't seem like they would fit and be well hidden at all.

For the sake of keeping things simple, we just re-fluffed a deep pocket cloak (D&D 4E) as a poncho.

Millstone of inopportune timing. A millstone that suddenly appears to the person that owns it at the worst possible moment. When running away from a group of trolls, you are bound to trip over it, when climbing a perilous cliff, it'll start rolling down towards you, when escaping from the BBEG's prison, it will be blocking the last door. It cannot be destroyed, given, or stolen. It's ownership can only be transferred by selling it, or if the previous owner has died, the next person to touch it now owns it. It will only appear and disappear outside of a person's line of sight. Created by Uglhir Forjear, the wizard that crafted the necklace of seabird summoning, which causes albatrosses to flock to the person wearing it until the birds die.

The Scholar's Focus

At first appearing as an unassuming pair of glasses, upon further inspection you find that the frame is made of bronze with the "glass" actuallying being shaped crystal lenses.

Upon donning the glasses one finds that their focus sharpens and that they can concentrate on anything that they set their mind to, more so when reading a scroll or a book. While doing so you may find yourself moving about seemlessly dodging steps and furniture legs as easily as you would dodge blades, fists, and arrows.

As long as you have a book or scroll in hand and are studying it you gain your intelligence modifer X2 to your AC and touch AC but you cannot fight back being so absorbed in reading nor actively control where and how you move while reading.

The book Atlas Mundum Effudit.

Reading this book when under the effects of the new moon or in youth will cause the reader to go insane with greed and sociopathy. Fortunately, the effect will run out in a matter of years, unless the reader is especially vulnerable to eldritch forces. If so, the reader will slowly turn into an al-ghalt, a lonely and gibbering spirit who sets up a throne of sand in the desert where it tries to rule over the Sun and the wind.

I was just writing this up for my current campaign...

The Sea-Killing Blade

+6 weapon, encrusted with fire opals. Each opal is cracked in a star pattern, like a tiny sun when the light passes through it.

Appears to be an oversized longsword or short-bladed greatsword, but it will subtly shift its mass to match the properties of any one-handed or two-handed sword that the wielder is proficient with. It wants to be used and will change itself to match whatever the person who just found it is currently using.

Can flare on command, dealing fire damage instead of slashing damage, for as long as the wielder desires.

Can destroy water on contact. If plunged into a container or body of water, it annihilates 1 gallon per round. There is no steam or vapor, though the blade flares with great heat while this happens. This effect requires a living will to direct it- if the blade is dropped, or the wielder decides the effect should stop, it stops.

After ten rounds in a single body of water, it begins consuming 10 gallons per round. Every ten rounds thereafter, it consumes ten times as much.

Once the rate of annihilation becomes faster than the water's flow can keep up with, the water begins to vanish from the far edges instead of close to the blade. This prevents "thunderclap" effects and tsunami from stopping the all-important work.

It can empty the oceans of an Earthlike world in about half an hour, but it never has. The worst it's ever done is cause horrible worldwide droughts and desertification. The sea level is where it is now because of the blade; at least 50% of the world's land surface was underwater a thousand years ago.

The blade very much wants to destroy the sea, but it has no power to control its wielder. It can only whisper encouragement and make suggestions, and it's too stupid to actually manipulate anyone.

Even so, it will one day find the right nihilist and achieve its destiny.

The Twin Maces of the Dancing Bard.

These two round-headed maces don't seem like much. About two feet long, the heads detaper out into a pear shape about two inches in diameter.

When both are used the wielder is possessed by song that is accompanied by a rhythmic, brutal and deadly choreography. The song will bubble to their lips in a blood-thirsty glee, the heads and shafts bump into each other in time with it, and heads are mushed at the appropriate crescendos.

Two heads at the same time? Even better.

The show must go on.

This piece of metal is cast in the familiar shape of a femur bone. The big one in your thigh.

It is a kind of wand. When pointed at a being with bones, it will bond with a bone in their body.

By wrenching the Ripper, the aforementioned bone can be dislodged or ripped out of the body with surprisingly little difficult.
