OOC: About Fantasy Costco
Okay lemme tell you about the newest store in Fandom, the newest branch of the Fantasy Costco and how you can help with suggesting Fantasy Costco items.
So Fantasy Costco is pretty much what it sounds like. It's a store where adventurers of all types can buy items to help them with their quest. So it'll contain things like backpacks, health potions, food, rope, etc. Basically like a camping store but with things that would be helpful for a fantasy adventure so there'd also be spellbooks, bibles for various gods for the clerics out there, swords, etc..
Now every post I or my future employees make will contain an item of the day. This is a special item that can be bought for the asking price or a good haggle. Examples include:
- Mockingbird Gum: Contains 5 pieces of gum that allows you to emulate the voice for another for up to an hour
- No Sodium Salt Shaker: Salt turns pink when added to food that has been poisoned
- Lens of Straight Creeping: A monocle that allows the user to see the footprints of a person or creature that has been within an area. Can only be used once per day.
On the show the DM takes suggestions from the audience using Twitter. Here, however, we're going to be using this screened post. Just drop a comment if you have an idea for the special item of the day.
A few things to keep in mind:
- Avoid anything game breaking. Nobody wants a character running around that is impervious to everything you throw at them.
- Limiting things to only being used once a day/week/month is a good way to keep things from getting game breaky.
- Also limited use before the item breaks is also allowed i.e. the Scuttle Buddy lets you overhear conversations but breaks after four uses.
- Goofy suggestions are fine! The item doesn't necessarily have to be useful.
Let me know if you have any questions!
