Item: Moped of Look Behind; while riding you have near perfect perception mod-ifiers on any perception roles for behind you, though objects may be closer than they appear.
Encounter: a wolf with a soul patch and a comb-over that isn’t racist or homophobic or anything, obviously, but just wants to play devil’s advocate for a minute 18:14
Sentient googly eyes. They just…stick to things that need eyes. Sometimes they stick over existing eyes but only as a punchline. Always on the hunt for a new host. They move around a lot.
Encounter: sentient googly eyes with little spider legs. Usually come in pairs, although not always. Probably spies for some wizard that either has gone mad or has a weird sense of humor, relaying what they see back to headquarters. Treat as Arcane Eyes with legs instead of hovering.
Item: Shovel of Hovering; once used to disturb the grave of a powerful wizard, the shovel was cursed to never again touch soil or rock, so it floats, usually 10-20 ft above ground level. By holding tightly to it, a wielder may join it, but the hovering affect does not magically transfer to them, so they must be careful with it.
Item: Golden Scorpion Jewelry. The earrings appear to be perfectly normal gold scorpions, but are in fact clockwork and will obey the owner’s commands, including using their stinging tail to deliver a dose of whatever poison is stored in the hollow compartment in the ring.
Encounter: an inbred Beholder; it has no mouth and the blind eyes on its scrawny, underdeveloped eyestalks can only cast Entangle, although instead of vines it’s more eyestalks.
