Re: Useless but fun magic Items
Unfortunately, that is extremely not useless, as that's the most absurdly abusable flaw in D&D outside of random homebrew on dandwiki. Seriously, the things you can do with it make it probably worth two feats at least, not -1.
I dunno about Catfox, but Owlbears have 10 Cha?

Wand of Raise Dead:

Pebble of Walking:

Periapt of Wisdom-Teeth: Although it appears to be a normal tooth on a chain, a periapt of wisdom-teeth actually increases the possessor's number of teeth in the form of an enhancement bonus of +2, +4, or +6 depending on the individual item.

Re: Useless but fun magic Items
A less un-useful version of Bacon_Elemental's "Stone of Expensive Weight"
Money Purse of Holding: This small cloth wallet is held shut by a small metal clasp and is richly embroidered. Empty it has a negligible weight and infinite volume, but for every 50 coins placed into it, its weight increases by one pound. If an item that is not a coin (even a disk-shaped ingot) is placed into it, it immediately spits it back out at whoever tried to put it in, dealing 1 point of bludgeoning damage to them.Last edited by Gildedragon; 2012-11-28 at 03:09 AM.

Re: Useless but fun magic Items
A fractionally more interesting version* is The Cucumbers of Travel. This consists of a number of cucumber seeds; you plant one for each traveler, and sit on the cucumbers as they grow (which takes a few months normally; these magic seeds sprout in only 6 weeks). This will take you 18 inches closer to your destination, or with luck 20. Then you harvest the cucumbers at the appropriate time for more seeds and repeat. (All seeds produced by the cucumbers grown by these magic seeds are themselves magical in the same way.)

Consider a 5' radius blast: this affects 4 squares which have a circumference of 40' — Actually it's worse than that.

Re: Useless but fun magic Items
Ring Of Penguins: Whenever anyone casts a summon monster, summon nature's ally, or gate spell within a mile of this ring, they also summon x d20 penguins, where x is the level of the spell cast. The penguins are not under the summoner's control, and do not vanish when the spell expires.
Stone of Scones: On a succesful UMD check, the stone summons a dozen yummy blueberry scones. On a failure, the stone turns all items held or worn by the caster into yummy blueberry scones. They cannot be turned back.
Wheel of Fortune: Upon spinning this wheel, roll 1d20 and subtract ten from the result. Then apply the resulting number as a luck modifier to every skill check, save, and attack roll made by any character who was within 100 meters of the Wheel when it was spun. The effect lasts 24 hours, and the Wheel cannot be used again for that interval.Prince Fraternal of Pudding, Snuzzlepal, Feezy Squeez Lover, MP, Member of The Most Noble And Ancient Order Of St. George, King of Gae Parabolae.

Re: Useless but fun magic Items
Dude, do you know how fast that is? The speed of tectonic plates is a few centimeters per year at most.Do you know how many earthquakes, volcanoes and tsunamis you would make, and how much terraforming you could do? You could move a continent 91,25 cm in a year. That would wreak the entire world!
And if you say " it only moves the continent, not the tectonic plate," it would still be catastrophical.Last edited by Scizor; 2012-11-28 at 11:44 AM.

Re: Useless but fun magic Items
I did say it had titanic power. It is just that you can't particularly control these earthquakes.
Its a wand for the discerning omnicidal maniac with an eternity to burn and the patience to use it..... Actually that would be good for a BBEG.
In fact the total devastation a reckless player can cause with this item is enough to warrant the DM from sending in NPC parties to vanquish the BBEP.

Interesting (and largely useless), but what's the UMD DC?

Re: Useless but fun magic Items
Helm of Hungarian Communication.
Appearing as a normal helmet, a helm of Hungarian Communication grants its wearer the ability to understand the spoken words of any creature and to read text in any language and any magical writing.
It also functions as a form of Tongues in that creatures who do not speak the language of the wearer can understand his spoken words. There is a slight flaw in this however in that the words are translated so as to have a different, and usually rude, meaning.π = 4

Re: Useless but fun magic Items
Helm of Hungarian Nomenclature
This round helmet appears to have a small spinning ornament with two dull, rounded, slightly-curved blades atop it, and allows the wearer to properly determine the best name, in hungarian notation, for any given person, beast, monster, weapon, armor, tool, magic item, etc.
Examples:- fwizfdJanielle, for a party Wizard who uses lots of buffing/debuffing spells
- elsorbXykon, for an enemy Sorcerer lich who likes blasting
- nexpmer, for the nameless shopkeeper nearby
Truespeech does not use hungarian notation, and the helm does not confer a bonus on the skill use or researching a truename.Projects: Homebrew, Gentlemen's Agreement, DMPCs, Forbidden Knowledge safety, and Top Ten Worst. Also, Quotes and RACSD are good.

Re: Useless but fun magic Items
I'm planning on giving out a few of these to a party in a game I'm running. Should be funny!
New items:
Hat of Rabbits: Every time you take this hat off your head, a rabbit jumps out.
Ring of Random Plane Shifting: Every time you cast a spell, there is a (1* spell level)% chance that this ring will shift you to a random plane.
Bowl of Endless Bleeposchmeeg: A bowl whose inside is part of the Semi-Elemental Plane of Chocolate Pudding.Last edited by ReaderAt2046; 2012-12-07 at 11:07 PM.

It would fill the bowl with the gruel, which would create a pocket of gruel somewhere below the surface of the Semi-Elemental Plane of Chocolate Pudding.

The Headband of Reverse Intellect: If an idiot wears it, he/she becomes a genius. If a smart person wears it, he/she becomes stupid.
The Amulet of Magic Immunity: This amulet is completely immune to all magic. The wearer of the amulet is still vulnerable to magic.
Ring of the Elderly: This ring makes it so you cannot die of old age. However, wearing the ring gives the wearer the negative effects of aging, such as a sore back, arthritis, wrinkles, bad eyesight, etc.
Potion of Flatulence: Whoever drinks a potion like this will suffer horrible farts that can make one gag.
