Pretty much what the title says, I'm curious what kinds of fun items / collectables everyone would like to see in game. For those who don't know what I'm talking about, WoW is probably has the most blatant examples of these kinds of items. Some changed your appearance to another race or creature for a few minutes, others let you shoot off fireworks, drive a little RC car, and some did things like made others dance. So with that in mind what kinds of collectable fun items do you want to see in Ashes?

    A few thoughts... there are so many more:

    - Shapeshift wands (or other ranged mechanism)
    - Deck of Many Things
    - Parachutes
    - Throwable balls
    - Bubble makers
    - Floating objects (torches, books, etc)
    - Placeable campfires
    - wind-up racers (for groups to play together)
    - rocket boots
    - keg of endless beer

    I'd like there to be a "flute of loyalty" which your character can play which makes people dance and plays a tune remarkably similar to this song: https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ

    The world is beautiful whenever you're here.
    And all the emptiness inside disappears.

    I'd also love to see a "Dunir Illumination Control Keystone."

    Which is an item forged through dwarves ingenuity so that when used will set forth a magical firework display above those who summon it.

    Another thing I'd like is something similar to wows flag of ownership, though more in the ashes style. So when a player dies you can plant a flag with a funny symbol on their pile of ash, it could even be the ashes of creation discord RIP sticker.

    Hadn’t even thought about this before…these kinds collectible/deployable/interactive items definitely do add a certain charm/flavor to the games that have them. I’m sure we will see some in AoC. Guild Wars, WoW, and other MMOs definitely have some pretty neat items/effects to see people using out in the world.

    I would like some of the magic items straight from dnd. Floating shields, little trinkets that move when you arent looking at them, and others.

    I used to like the Cover Shield from Star Trek Online. I could use it to climb the scenery and get to all sorts of places I shouldn't have been able to. Before the dark times came, and they nerfed it, of course.

    And who didn't love a good mudball-fight in ESO?!

    Ghost-In-The-Box from Guild Wars was always funny, too.

    Heh, like spraying a corpse with your Tag in Counter Strike.

    No idea if they will allow you to write your own music if you're a bard but I do believe they have discussed doing so. You might get your wish through that!

    I thought it would be cool to have an item that could enlarge your character or your mount for some funny screenshots. haha

    My main things are just fireworks or flares which I can use practically for signalling, either whilst out on plains or out at sea.
