Item: Knifey McKnifeface
The first ever sentient object, Knifey is your friend and will do it’s best to help you in any way possible.
By saying hello to Knifey in Common during a wisdom roll, you get to roll a 20 sided die before hand. On a 19-20 you instantly succeed. On a 13-18 you gain advantage. On a 7-12 it gives you +1 in the roll. On a 1-6 it gives you -2 on the roll and Knifey is silent until you take a long rest.
So, I like to let my players get away with pretty much everything.
I made one of them pick up the One Ring and felt a little bad,
But then one of them found the moonshine flask, the party drank from it, the NPCs drank from it and I’m sure that the enemies drank from it. I sometimes forget that my players are all neutral characters so I should not have been surprised when they all doubled down on “let’s get drunk and go looting!”
They’ve picked up a few more items but they’re very wary after the One Ring. I have only a few other truly cursed items but I especially love giving them weird stuff and seeing what they do with it.
I’ll probably be back a few weeks from now with better tales.
But never underestimate the power of moonshine and looting to bring people together.
