Arcane Artifacts and Curious Curios: 1000 Magical Artifacts for Game Masters

Excellent Dungeoneers resource!
Oh wow this just fell through the letter box, it is fat! 400+ pages of wonderful items! Madeline’s books are a staple at my table and this one will be no exception. I now know exactly what the weird magical curio shop in my homebrew game is going to stock.Each item has a succinct description, enchantment, and history, in her own imaginative style.I think it’s print-on-demand but the quality is great, the book is much thicker than previous books but I’ve really abused the spine and it seems fine.If you DM or your a player looking for some good ideas this is worthy of you gold pieces.

Absolutely Awstruck and Content with the Contents
What do you get when you cross a rocking horse and a flannel with a bucket of crows eggs?Don't know? Me neither, but I'd be darn sure Madeline Hale would have a brilliant answer. Having only handled this massive tome for a couple of hours now it promises to be a staple at my table from here on out.For a question I can answer, what do you get when you roll a d10 and then a d100?Weapons, tools, journals, trinkets, knickknacks and more, all by the genius layout and cross reference system she's devised to keep your players guessing. I know personally I will be choosing specific items to baffle, bemuse and befriend my players, but I know all too many DMs use too quick a quick reference system to truly confound theirs.Buy it, break it in and be brought in the imagination of it all. You wont be disappointed.A.T RavenhillP.S. Just for a sneak peakD10 - 10 / D100 - 71The Seven Rivers Scroll... Wanna know what it does? Buy the book.

Perfect for DnD and story writing
A thick book filled with an awesome collection of various magical items. Clothes, weapons, books, potions, and a whole bunch of miscellaneous items (Including some furniture).There's been some proper effort put into these books, and they are totally worth it for gameplay and assistance in writing fantasy stories.

Amazing
This book is beautiful. I’m NOT a book person, reading the the Official D&D books is just not my idea of fun 😴But this book! The illustrations are lovely, the items aren’t over explained, the items are weird/interesting/bizarre but also completely useful, and the cover has that really nice soft matte finish which is nice to hold 😂 .The author also adds a lovely way to use the book by rolling dice to generate random items. I loved this book so much I ordered the other two as well! Seriously, I’m not a book person.

Brilliantly inventive & useful
Brilliantly useful book. I bought this for my husband who has been playing D & D and DMing for 30 years. He loves the book and we used it last night to pick magical items as rewards at the end of a long campaign. The items listed are fabulously inventive. My friend who plays a wizard randomly picked a book that had a wizard’s soul trapped in it! We also like that you can role for condition of the item and if there are any side affects. Wonderful book. I’d buy another book by this author. If you can please someone that’s been playing so long and seen it all, to me that shows what a great book it is.
