[Al-Khwarizmi]

----- ring of the master librarian [+2, +2] -----
Weight: 2s

It grants 100 Literacy and Concentration.
Learning spells takes half the normal time and gives you twice the number of castings.
It makes the Weird Tome and IBM guild manuals comprehensible.

It is only available to characters who have never 'C'hatted with anyone during the course of the entire game.

I love this one, but you actually need to talk to the ghost librarian to get the tome :/

It makes you Lucky.

Good idea for the master librarian, but how would you get it?
And the black luck stone is unfair
Wish for scrolls of cure corruption

[Necropassion]

What is water immunity? Are you thinking of breath attacks?
'Cuz I think they deal damage through blunt force, or...
I'll let vogonpoet explain it: http://www.adom.de/forums/showthread.php?t=1314

Epic post.

[DumbleDoor]

Water immunity means immunity to any water based damage in attacks.

[Travis Prue]

The shiny, pretty ring is really a cursed doomed dooming ring of dooming doomed cursing cursedoomed dooming doom.

Wearing it makes you cursed beyond all reason.
Wearing it makes you doomed to the point that death won't even come near you.
It is a permanently cursed item.
It makes random sh*t fall on you randomly at random intervals.
You're royally f***ed when it comes to removing it.

----The Ring of Sadistic Programming----

Weight: 5s
(It cannot be removed once worn.)
(It increases piety while worn. (+10 per turn))
(It prevents you from equipping other artifacts.)
(It increases your luck by over 10000 when checking to randomly generate artifacts.)
(It is probably ratling fodder.)
(It cannot be identified.)

(Generated at random from kills by characters with Treasure Hunter.)


----Amulet of the Endless March----

(+10, +10) [+10, +10] {+10}
Weight: 0s

It increases your speed and all other stats by 10.
Movement costs but 600 energy points while it is worn.
It can be used to make you Satiated (Cures bloating and starvation)

It prevents you from moving up stairs.
It cannot be removed.

(Granted by wishing for power in the ID below level 255 after receiving a special message "Your feet are sore.")


---- Scroll of Omnipotence ----

Allows the reading of the Weird Tome to gain a special ending.


(Gained by praying while "Extremely close" and crowned below level 3000 in the ID. "Mortal, your feats impress us. If you so choose, we give you the chance to join us.")
=============

I think the librarian ring should drop by killing the ghost librarian without chatting at him. Clearly the real master librarian would avoid chatting at all costs.

------- bloody whip "Beastmaster" (+4, 1d4+5) [-1, +0] [Dx+6]  -------

Weight: 21s

It modifies you Dexterity by +6.
It causes bleeding wounds.
It has a 10% chance of taming animals on hit.

Animals tamed by this whip are initially extremely fickle, but the wielder can heal up the animal afterwards and make it a normal tame.

*I like this one. The taming occurs initially because the animal is afraid, but the bleeding wounds property requires the use of a bandage and then healing to actually "save the life" of the animal. It's an especially cruel way of taming...lol.... but then, its name IS "Beastmaster".

Another "whip":

------- Long heavy chain "Trickster" (+6, 2d4+8) [Dx-2]  -------

Weight: 50s

It modifies you Dexterity attribute by -2.
It has a 10% chance of taking the enemy down in a sweep (only enemies that have legs). The enemy takes 1 turn to get back on its feet.

I like the "chain" ideas that were proposed here. Thou chains aren't that popular in fantasy medieval worlds, its a good way of making available more powerful, heavier hitting, "whip-like" weapons.

[FantomFang]

The swirly short spear is really the swirly short spear "Heaven Piercer" (2d6+15) {Wi+10} (40s)

It grants luck
It causes Fate to smile upon you.
It grants +10 to Willpower
It is a fantastic beast slayer
It is an extraplanar creature slayer.
It can bypass PV
(It can dig through stone as a pick axe would)

Bonus points for anyone who gets the reference.

Huh, no one responded to your call here, so I will.
It's Tengen Toppa Gurrenn Lagann, where you Pierce the Heavens with your XXX!
Btw, Libera me from Hell is awesome. Don't like Opera, don't like rap, but this...well, takes the cake.
