Coward's Heart -...My thoughts on the entries,<br /><br />Coward's Heart - Interesting - I see it as more of an NPC than a magic item tho<br />Codex of Dungeons - Interesting in a "this way to the next adventure" way but not something I would want to DM<br />Merkil's Marvelous Map - No. No way. Not getting into my world. Reeks of harry potter.<br />Bag of Six Demons - Very powerful - definitely high level but usable.<br />Liber Rubigo Mortem - Very nasty - again more of a monster than a magic item tho - and only able to be fought by PC's wearing non iron armor using non iron weapons. A rust monster that can do 40 points a round..<br />Torvit’s Amulet of Historic Viewing - Interesting item - could be a cool thing in the right game - a dm's nightmare in the wrong one.<br />Amanita Spectra Mortis - probably my favorite - interesting without being overpoweredAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12566987959812923367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-7697774886752601982014-03-25T06:15:49.491-04:002014-03-25T06:15:49.491-04:00Yeah, as a contributor, I didn't want to say a...Yeah, as a contributor, I didn't want to say anything negative, but, let's just say it's my least favorite of these.

And it's something a 12-year-old GM would come up with when making some 'cool' magic stuff for their game. It's not as clever as the others what made top 7. I'm not saying it's not a good idea, again, I'm just thinking there had to have been something better.Tim Makihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00170961509320774485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724254580047847936.post-46869072748155452452014-03-24T22:40:54.875-04:002014-03-24T22:40:54.875-04:00Well, I like the map.

It blends the boundries between the game and the world (I open the map in game world / GM draws the map in the real wolf).
