Who Gets an item and what powers does it have?

List of Items

The following are the items which I have premade for anyone to use. You're not actually limited to just these; you can make new items for your routes if you want to. Though, if you do, I would ask you to try and keep them from being too above the others in raw power.

If you just want to find an item that enables a particular story, or one that will allow you to explore a certain kink, here's the list to choose from, but please note that even if you use an item from this list you can change its rules to suit yourself. The ones listed here are mostly just suggestions for you to play around with.

Crown of Authority
A fine crown which looks like it stepped out of last century. It's made of silver with tracings of gold. Despite its obvious value, it's small and light. One could fit it into an average bag.

When a user wears the Crown, or touches it with their body, they are able to alter the rules and laws of the world by speaking out loud what they want to change or create. The Crown has dominion only over humans and over human society, so it cannot command the supernatural or the natural, but can alter the rules that humans live by easily. It can do so in one of two ways. Either the change is something new that has only recently come into effect and people are aware of that, or its old and has always been this way.

In either case, most people will not question the new laws, rules or procedures and act as if they are entirely legitimate no matter what they actually are. Some people however - particularly those who are strong willed or who very opposed to the new changes, might still consider them wrong on some level.

The Crown can also remove rules as well as adding them; if it does so, all memory of that rule ever existing is also removed, along with all evidence that it ever did.

Ring of the Mind
A small ring inset with a tiny ruby that glows faintly when the sunlight catches it. It always seems to fit its bearer perfectly, and when worn it allows them to perceive the minds and thoughts of others. This is difficult, and usually only surface thoughts can be gleaned at first, but practice makes it easier to dig deeper.

In addition to this, if the user makes physical contact with a target while wearing the ring, they can play with the mind of that target. They change change their thoughts, their feelings or their desires. Doing so is an instant process from the point of view of anyone else, but for the wielder of the ring, time seems to slow and this allows them as much time as they want to consider their next actions.

The user can change almost any aspect of a target, but the more alien it is to that target, the harder it becomes to do. Nothing is impossible, but some things may require repeated efforts and the target may struggle against them more if they do not line up with their desires or nature.

Amulet of Dominance
An old looking metal amulet made of brass or maybe bronze. It's about the size of a palm and looks rather scratched and dented. When held, it allows a user to exert control over any target within their visual range. The user can issue verbal commands and the target will obey. If the users wishes, the target will obey without thought or realising what they are doing, but they can also allow the target to know what they are doing but remain helpless to prevent themselves doing it.

The amulet can target both humans and animals, but nothing mechanical in nature. It can have as many targets at a time as the user wants, but the more people are under its control, the weaker its suggestions become. Strong willed targets may be able to break free if the user spreads its power too thinly.

If they are skilled, the user can ''store'' commands in a target, forcing them to carry out those orders once specific conditions are met even if the user is not around. A target can be ordered to forget that they even are under the control of the amulet.

Book of Ages
A book filled with insane scribblings. Its appearance can be altered to reflect anything the user wants it to look like so long as it is some form of book. To anyone but the user, it's filled with a mad scrawl that is totally incomprehensible. To the bearer however, it presents itself in their native language.

The Book of Ages had several powers. Firstly, by attuning it to a specific person it will begin to record any true thing that is said by that person or about that person. Lies and half truths are not recorded. Secondly, by writing in the book, the user is able to alter history itself. Small changes can be made quickly and easily, but larger changes require more effort, and so the book becomes inactive for a period of time after instituting a massive change. (Period of time varies based on the change and needs of the story.)

There is one drawback to the Book of Ages and it is this. The holders of items cannot be separated from their item, no matter how it twists history. They will always end up alive, and in possession of the item they had when history was rewritten. Additionally, it does not possess mind control and as such while it can alter the past or the personal history of people, it cannot actually **** them into compliance if even in the altered timeline, they do not wish to do a thing or consider something wrong or bad.

The Key of Desire
A heavy metal key, somewhat oversized and clearly not ever intended to actually fit in a lock. When a user holds it in their hand, it grants them the ability to influence the emotions or sensation felt by a target. They key has no direct power over thoughts, but can both implant and manipulate emotions.

It can also create, reduce or intensify physical sensations such as pleasure, arousal, desire, fear or pain. Depending on how the user wants to do this, it can do it in a single action - overloading a target with a sudden flood of the desired emotion or sensation, or do it slowly over time so that they do not realise what is happening to them.

Additionally, the Key allows its user to enter the dreams of sleeping humans or animals with a touch, and can directly control those dreams.
