Magick Item Template
Common Name
The name that the items is known by
Other Names
What other names has the item been known by, perhaps regional or time period variations?
Power level
What is the number of spells and the total level of spells contained in the item? What is the maximum level of spell? Is this classed as a focus? Does it require nested complex spells?
Charges
How many charges does the item have, how many spells can be stored in the item?
Recharge Rate
How many charges does the item recover each day?
Formula for creation
List and details of the items required and the enchantment method to create the original item.
Description
What form does the item take, what does it look like, what adornments does it have, has it suffered damage in its lifetime that gives away its true nature? Is the item obviously magick al or does it have a mundane look to it?
Powers and activation
What can the item do, how does it do it and how can the user activate these abilities? Can anyone use the item? Can only those who have a correct method and form use the item? Is the item coded to a certain race or family line? These are some of the questions that should be addressed in this section.
Original creator
Who was the first creator of the item? Is this information lost in ancient history? Was the creator even human, perhaps the item is created by other hands: Djinn, Elves, Dwarves or perhaps more demonic magic? Perhaps the item is an artefact and was created by the gods, it first user would be listed here.
Date of creation
When was the item originally made, what year or epoch did it come from?
Number of copies
Are there other copies out there, is this part of a set or combination item?
Last know owner Location
Where do the sages and tomes point to as the last known location and owner?
Variants
Are there more modern variants of the item? What can they do that is less or greater than the original? How does one tell a variant from an original? Are there cursed versions?
Research Notes
If someone was looking for the item, or looking to make a copy or variant of the item, what resources are out there? This section should have information that gives reading sources, legends, tales of the adventures of one of the users of the item. This section is basically where you put hooks to mini-adventures / sidebar games so that the world continues to live though this usually abandoned or trivialised part of the game. The feeling for the player is that their character, has been active and earned his knowledge. The item will have meaning, it will matt er, it will be worth making an effort for and cause sadness or trouble if lost or stolen.
