And you thought 2nd edition had stupid monsters

[baridmerlin]

For my glorious return to LJ, I've decided to introduce a few of the hilariously stupid items I found in Encyclopedia Magica: Volume 1. For those of you that don't know; this is a 2nd edition AD&D book filled with various magic items, they are listed in alphabetical order by type (ex. arrows, belts, swords, etc.) Here are some of the gems I have

LOL!!! Those are some great stupid items!

I've been looking into getting pdfs of all the Encyclopedia Magica volumes, as well as the Priest and Wizard Spell Compendiums (which have some crazy spell, I'm sure. Like the Aganizar's Scorcher, or however you spell the mage's name - though maybe that was a misreading of the spell that made it so crazy, devastating, and burned down half an inn. You've always wanted an out-of-control flamethrower for a mage, haven't you?)

SWEET, I gotta find more of this items just so I can mock them.
