Cut-less Cutlass

This cursed blade makes it harder (-2 to attack rolls) to hit enemies. Otherwise, it is normal.

The adornments on the hilt of the sword hint at lands where volcanoes loom overhead and coconuts and pomegranates contitute a portion of the local diet. The sword is unique, the result of a craft wondrous item gone wrong. It has been in the hands of a unknowing pirate for many years now, a pirate whose battles have left him increasingly scarred and broken.

Helm of Entrapment

This helm employs an illusion to trick the wearer into putting it on backward, so the eye holes face backward. This effectively blinds the character, and since the item is cursed, the wearer cannot willingly remove it. A remove curse spell will allow the wearer to doff the entrapping helm.

Moderate transmutation; CL 7th; Craft Wondrous Item, bestow curse; Price 1,300 gp.

Helm of Hiding

This helm (really a leather cap) improves the wearer's chance of hiding. It provides a +5 competence adjustment on all Hide checks while worn.

Faint transmutation; CL 5th; Craft Wondrous Item, darkness; Price 2,500 gp;Weight 1 lb.

Phase Object

What a drag it is getting old.

This spell was discovered by the elder wizard Faduardo Gantonín in the Phyloctæte, who was hell-bent on prolonging his life. Sadly for him, he never made it very far (only a round forward and a round back), but other mages have since put this magic to good use in less grandiose contexts.

By waving her index finger and repeating the verbal component, Os-Il-Ate, the caster shifts an object in time one round forward or back from the present, alternating back-present-forward-present and so on for 1 cycle/lvl. The caster must continue the verbal component at relative intervals to maintain the spell. This doesn't interfere with other spells since the verbal component is so simple.

If cast on a container (no larger than a bag), all the items inside the container also phase shift in time. Certain mages have found ways to cast the spell on on the items inside the bag, creating the Bag of Withholding (future post -- or is it past?). The downside to this spell is that items can become lost in time if the caster is not careful, trapped one round in the past of the caster.

The Greater version of the spell (9th level) allows the caster to shift a number of items up to their level a number of cycles up to their level into the future and past.

Activity Spike

This magic item is activated whenever the activity in the room grows too active, at the DM's discretion, of course. The spike then enlongates from 3 inches to 3 feet and deals 2d6 on a successful hit from the sharp end. Unfortunately, since the large spike is unwieldy, unless the wielder has an exotic weapon feat, he or she will suffer a -2 penalty to hit.

The spike can also be used as a club, and deals damage as a, you guessed it, club.

This item could also be used creatively to many humorous (and deadly) ends. Think about it.

This item radiates a minute amount of magic.

Price: 1,500gp
