Modern day magic item six pack. It's been a while since I've done a six pack so here we go. What few game mechanics that are given will be for the WaRP (aka Over the Edge) game system from Atlas Games. Have fun.
Fashionable Tie.
I very nice silk necktie. Usually of
whatever particular style is in at the moment. When one puts it on
and ties the knot themselves it creates an illusion around the
wearer. Everybody else sees them in a very high fashion suit,
perfect cut and fit. However only living people see the illusion,
cameras and such do not.
The 'Oh Shit' Button.
What appears to be a small two inch by
two inch by one inch thick solid box with a single button on it. No
other markings, no way to open it and nothing will show up inside
using any sort of scan. However if the button is pressed all alarm
signals with a 200 foot radius will go off. Some nearby phones will
even self dial 911.
Every Key.
A well worn car key with no specific car manufacturer logo printed on it. It will unlock any vehicle door and work in any key driven ignition.
The Stop Watch
What appears to be a simple non-digital wrist watch with a leather strap. There is an extra button on each side that are unusual and seem to serve no purpose. However when one presses both in at the same time while staring at the watch it will cause time to freeze in the area around them. This will last as long as the wearer is looking at the watch face, one look away and it breaks. So they have to use peripheral vision to move around. The more complicated the movement the harder it is to not break eye contact. Only works once per month. Trying to use this at any other time simply cause no effect what so ever.
Stethoscope of Health.
Looks like a regular Stethoscope but when anyone with a medical trait uses them they can hear a whisper in their ear when checking for a heartbeat. The voice is telling the user of any potential health problems and injuries the person they are examining may have.
The Spinning Signal Soak.
A small wooden top. Much like that a child would play with. The wood is unpainted but worn and a strange unknown writing goes around it's surface in black ink. While spinning the top cancels out every single electronic signal within a 200 foot radius. Cellphones, wifi, laptops, all of it. The devices will still work but cannot connect to any network at all. Each use costs one Psychic Point and it can be used any amount of times per day. Once spun it will stay spinning for a D6 of minutes, for each additional Psychic Point put you add another D6 to the roll.
