Boots of Hermes

Rating: 2

A set of exquisite brown leather booths, coming up to the heels. They carry no embroidery, no decorations, only style. They are sleek, having an aura of speed about them. Their dead giveaway however is a pair of silver wings firmly attached to the sides of each shoe. These are boots made in the image of Hermes. Whoever wears the shoes is aided in their sneakery.

If a cat can stand on it, so can you. Wearing these boots you can stand on a clothesline, or on a fence without damaging it.

Glasses of Androkles

Two transparent green stones adorn a silver frame. The glasses give a green vision that was thought to be healthy for eyesight in the ancient days. When you use them as a seer you can see outlines of people through walls, such as those of a spa, but not through thick walls such as those of a castle.

As a kindred, this can be used by seeing aura's where before you could not. The outlines of the aura also tell you something about the shape behind them, though you can't use this to make up any details jewellery they are wearing. It's visible if they're wearing a ball gown or not you can only see their aura and the shape that leaves.

History: A set of lenses was originally created by the lone philosopher Androkles. He used this for dubious purposes for several years before word of his invention became more widespread, at which point he was soon stabbed and the lenses passed through various thieves and generals until they were eventually put in a frame and ended up in the treasure.

Item of curse and Discord

(( A sceptre from ancient Greece. Gives the power to lay a curse on someone to sow discord. The subject will confuse a specific person for the rest of the evening. They can eventually break free. ))

Cleopatras carpet

(( Can roll any person or body into the carpet and then the carpet can still be carried by 1 person. Hides the person from outsiders. They can't see out, though they can hear muffled sounds. Anyone inside can hear muffled sounds on the outside, perception rolls are made at +2 difficulty for hearing. ))

(( Person sized persian carpet. The carpet can hold 1 person. Person can come out by a 'release ritual', which at least involves unrolling the carpet while speaking the release word. ))

Pharaoh's curse

(( An ankh or something that protects the chamber of the owner who rests in it. Sicks some 'curse of the pharaoh's on who ever violates the restee. ))

(( Has to be activated by a burial ritual on a place of resting. Then guards the dead who rest there. Can be 1 person, or a husband/wife duo. ))

An intruder who enters the protected chamber whilst the ankh is active is cursed with a compulsion to run out of the building and jump in a body of water.
