The Banes
First gifts
Several ideas for varied first gifts, randomizing the artifact the player gets for his or her sacrifices.
Archeologist
Mattock of Earthquakes
- lawful dwarf archeologist favouring dwarvish mattock
- deals double damage to cross-aligned
- invoke for an earthquake
I really like the Itlachiayaque patch, as it gives archeologists a thematically appropriate quest artifact. However, why not to reuse their (reworked) vanilla artifact as a first gift? The powers are changed mostly because I don't feel they actually work with the detection flavour.
- unaligned archeologist-favouring orb of enlightenment
- carried grants searching
- apply for enlightenment
- invoke for magic mapping
Trowel of Pillaging
- neutral gnome archeologist favouring silvered gnomish shovel
- carried causes all monsters to drop some gold or gems as an additional death drop (the chance is based on luck)
- read to learn Dig spell
Monk
Hempen Rope of Asceticism
- lawful monk-favouring rope
- grants double its enchantment to AC
- worn prevents loosing consciousness while fainting
- invoke to toggle slow digestion
Robe of Stars
- neutral monk-favouring robe
- worn grants light radius as a lamp
- acts as a luckstone
- invoke to create several silver stars
Snakeskin
- chaotic monk-favouring robe
- grants double the normal robe effects
- worn grants poison resistance, hallucination resistance and half physical damage
Noble
Silver Spoon of Feasting
- unaligned noble-favouring silvered spoon
- deals double damage
- returns to quiver when thrown
- carried grants increased hunger while satiated and decreased hunger while hungry or worse (same as convicts)
- wielded or quivered grants unbreathing
Tourist
Luggage
- neutral tourist-favouring chest
- can be #looted as any normal chest
- always generated with a tin whistle inside
- using any whistle on the same floor as is the Luggage will teleport it under the player’s feet
- applied acts as a bag of tricks, but requires no charges
Wizard
Staff of the Magi
- unaligned wizard-favouring quarterstaff
- grants +1d5 to hit and deals double damage
- wielded grants double ray and beam damage
Mantle of Spell Resistance
- unaligned wizard-favouring cloak of magic resistance
- worn grants half spell damage
Crowning gifts
A nice change would be to grant all roles a specific crowning artifact, so here are several ideas for such.
Barbarian
Claymore
- neutral barbarian-favouring silvered two-handed sword
- grants +1d5 to hit and deals double damage to humanoids
- wielded grants automatic searching and improves searching
- can be applied to plant a mine on an adjacent square
Wizard
Elder Wand
- lawful wizard-favouring silvered wand of magic missile
- can be recharged indefinitely
- zapped deals ((XL/2)+1)d6 damage, as the spell
- grants +1d5 to hit and +1d10 to damage, plus casts melee magic missile (similar to the attack of angels) without using up charges
- wielded grants reflection
- can be multizapped (similar to multishot of ranged weapons)
- uses Stakes or Attack spells skill, whichever is higher
- invoke for long-lasting protection
Wizzard's Hat
- neutral wizard-favouring dunce cap
- carried grants magic resistance
- worn grants double normal robe effects and amnesia resistance
- invoke to restore energy
- read to learn Teleport away spell
Sceptre of the Witch-King
- chaotic wizard-favouring wand of draining
- can be recharged indefinitely
- grants +1d5 to hit and +1d10 to damage, plus can drain life of struck monsters
- draining life has 50% chance to heal the player and 50% chance to add one charge to the wand
- wielded grants drain resistance, death resistance (if magic resistance is split into several different resistances) and half spell damage
- read to learn Finger of death spell
Quest rewards
Several possible alternatives for quest artifacts, mostly to make different alignments and races more unique.
Wizard
Eye of Cthulhu
- chaotic wizard-favouring amulet of flying
- carried grants blood magic (when out of Pw, you can pay the cost from HP at 1:1 basis) and hungerless regeneration
- worn grants flying and MC 3
- invoke to toggle phasing
