Useful mundane objects
Posted: Wed Oct 12, 2011 1:40 am
So what are some useful everyday objects for modern games?
I found this list: http://www.fastrpg.net/resources_files% ... 0equip.pdf
..which is cool, but it seems like there could be so much more.
I am putting together a briefcase full of stuff for a lawyer (british, cthulhu-style) character, so I've been thinking up handy knick-knacks. Some of them are likely to be useful, but I don't think it's really going to make a difference so much as be personally amusing. So far I have:
- 1 Suit(nice)
- 1 Flask(rum, strong, personal ward)
- 1 Class Ring(Oxford)
- 1 Digital Audio Recorder
- 1 Lighter(cigar, butane, windproof)
- Cell Phone
- Key Ring(assorted keys)
- Briefcase, containing: - 1 Pair Gloves (leather)
- 1 Umbrella(small, folding)
- 1 Computer(tablet, mundane)
- 1 Portable Printer & Paper
- 7 Pens(blue)
- 1 Penknife
- 2 Sandwiches(Ham)
- 3 Markers(Sharpie, black)
- 3 Handkerchiefs(clean, white, spare)
- 1 Pair Opera Glasses
- 1 Ball(golf, "lucky")
- 2 Pairs Shoelaces(black)
- 1 Laser Pointer(Red)
- 1 Bottle sleeping Pills (Diphenhydramine)
- 3 Scorecards(golf)
- 20' Duct Tape
- 2 Pads Post-its
- 2 Torches(Maglite)
- 2 Pens(red)
- 10 Baggies(ziplock)
- 1 Bottle Ibuprofin
- 1 Trash Bag(black, 50 gallon)
- Golf Club(putter, collapsible)
Any other thoughts? As I go crazy, I was thinking of adding things like:
- 1 friend(invisible)
- 1 shoe(left, repels supertankers)
etc.
