100 Histories and Legends for Magic Items

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Magical treasures, when found, can often be very boring in nature. Not so much Glamdring and Orcrist, as was found in The Hobbit, but longswords +1. These are completely uninteresting and make magic commonplace rather than exotic.

This supplement has 100 different histories and legends for magic items. Some items are singular, with past owners given, whilst others are tied to locations and groups. These can be tweaked to a GM's own setting if needed. The items are given types and some also have descriptions.

Such histories and legends should not be overused. Not every treasure should have an associated history. Some items are just what they seem. Items that are associated with individuals and groups may have people who think they have more claim to the item than the PCs do.

This PDF supports Adobe layers and the page backgrounds and images can be disabled to make printing easier.

Here is a sample result:

Chalice - This two-handled gold chalice is gem-encrusted to the point of tackiness. The prolific covering almost hide the fact that there is a coat of arms picked out by the gems. The coat of arms is one that belonged to Lord Neverhulme, a powerful warrior-mage with imperial pretensions. Despite Neverhulme’s skill in battle and with magic, his lack of diplomatic ability eventually caused his downfall. A force of those he had either defeated or offended finally wiped Neverhulme’s forces out with superior numbers.

One page is the cover and one the front matter.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
