Eddie's Lost and Found in the Humpback Sky
What have we here?
Well, let's face it, the many spheres of the humpback sky are full of junk! More junk than you'd believe. I can hear you thinking you can believe it, and you can't. So stop trying. Look, you need to stop distracting me.
Anyway.
Yeah, the spheres are full of crap. Some of it finds its way here. If something here is yours take it.
-
CT&T Calling Cards - Meals - Another one of CT&T's attempts to bridge collectible and communications markets. This tall deck of 10 cards each animated images of rather tasty looking meals. Simply crack the card to activate a tear in the fabric of space, and pull out your ready meal. Do not go into the crack.
-
Wooden Teeth - Not to be confused with the "other" wooden teeth you can find in every dental appliance store, these do more than make you the talk of the party. Enjoy sticks, twigs, leaves, and ground nuts without splinters and other gastrointestinal distresses.
-
Super Bubble Gun - This candy colored plastic raygun blows bubbles. The manufacturers believed there was an underserved market for adults and upped the bubble strength significantly. When something close is targeted the bubble can envelop a medium sized Grex. When something far away is targeted the bubble gun will likely cause delight. Popping a bubble requires a Super Bubble Popper (sold separately) or any other lance like implement.
-
Asteroid Crab Oil - An even greater delicacy than asteroid shrimp, this is everything everyone loves about astroid crabs but crushed and refined into an oil. The smell of this oil will have everyone and everything running to get a taste of whatever you cook, and just a drop will turn the most boring meal into one they'll remember forever.
-
Robes of the Gilled Screether - Ah, yes, the elder's robes for the followers of the Gilled Screether. Who are they? Who cares! The robes, provided they're never washed, allows the wearer to breathe salty water. These robes are essential if you wish to perform the sacred rituals in the sea. It is worth noting that breathing water prevents speaking so no ritual has, as of yet, ever been completed.
-
Left Sock Rope - Left socks have had it with you and right socks. They are so mad they choose to get lost out of their own sphere. The person the left sock chooses to partner with, will be able to summon a near infinite amount of left socks that will knot themselves into a fantastic rope. You're on thin ice with left socks, so don't mess this up.
-
Spooky Goo - Its solar powered nightmare fuel! Let it charge in the day light, then simply unleash it into the room of your prank victim. You'll both laugh when you fondly remember how the goo, once free'd from its chamber, assaulted the sanity of your chosen victim by creating strange shadows, shapes, motions and more.
-
Auto-Clapper - We've all been at performances so bad we can't be bothered to touch our hands together. The auto-clapper will clap loudly and cheerily at the push of a button and setting of a cheer dial. Note, these are no longer available for purchase as black-market modification plans for the auto-slapper became popular and serious injuries were reported.
-
Fungal Implant - Now this here is unique. Simply pick a place on your body, attach the implant and after 2 days of rest and some pretty wild dreams, you'll find you can sense and communicate with mycelial networks.
-
Belly Stones - Voice Dazzlers - The Belly Stone empire changed everything as it found a way to tap into dermal networks to significantly alter a wearer's appearance or capabilities. When inserted into the "Belly hole," these gems each provide a hot new sound to your voice.
-
Singing Frogs - Don't let the appearance of these frogs fool you! They love to sing everything from operas from other spheres to pop music. They're even pretty good. The problem is getting them to stop once they start, especially at night.
-
Packet of Seeds - They're seeds! C'mon, didn't you ever want to start a garden? For each packet you can roll to see what kind of plant might grow if provided for:
| Roll | Name | Care | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Melting Rose | Grows in 3 weeks with sun and water | Melts like ice cream when cut |
| 2 | Exploding Bean | Grows in 1 week with neglect | Bright green beans explode like flashbang when touched, TYL |
| 3 | Nebulasa | Grows in 1 year | Blooms at night. Flowers are moving nebulae that you can use to travel to new spheres |
| 4 | Fungal Gnome | Grows in 1 week | Pest that emerges, eats other crops and spreads (3/4/2/0 Small Beast Special: Weak to fire, bludgeoning will cause spore release for 2d4 more to grow) |
| 5 | Lunchadonna | Grows in 3 months | Shrub whose flowers turn into lunchboxes |
| 6 | False Lunchadonna | Grows in 2 months | Almost identical to lunchadonna, except for the tendency to eat small animals (TYL or lose 4 stamina) |
- Pocket Cloud Tired of the sun beating you down, or maybe you're only happy when it rains? Tear open the packet and enjoy your own cloud for the next 6 hours. It will follow wherever it can, block the sun, and keep you in the gloomy shade you desire.
- Candy Necklace - Whoever came up with this is a genius! It's a necklace that looks real but is actually candy. Guaranteed to impress everyone across the spheres.
- Grig-grig Tail - As sad as it is that a Grig-grig lost its life you are lucky enough to have its tail! The tail responds to your thoughts, curling, striking, and bending. In extreme cases, the tail will burn white hot if the owner is under duress.
- Fold-a-cloak - It looks like a standard adventurer's cloak, but this was made by someone obsessed with the idea of practicality to the point of absurdity. This cloak is made of enough material to blanket a 3 bedroom home, but folded so neatly and precisely it looks like a normal cloak. Folding instructions not included.
- Entwined Cups - Invented by a wizard who was either tired of partying or tired of staying sober, they created cups that allows the liquid in one to pass to the other.
- Gremlin Hole - Gremlins are nasty little creatures, but they sure are good at traveling through the cracks. This gremlin hole is about the size of a large fist, and allows you to place and probably retrieve things into the cracks that Gremlins travel through.
- Greggorio Sylvestry's Anyone-Can-Dance Shoes - For a brief moment Greggorio was a house hold name with his bold glial-like dance moves that turned into an empire of health-aids, accessories, and watches. He also released these shoes that were guaranteed to get you off your feet and dancing. If you can figure out the magic word, you can even get them to stop!
- Propolis - Sticky, resiny goo that bugs make to seal their homes is in this jar. It works to seal and protect what covers it, makes just about everything sticky, and works like glue when almost nothing else will. Wear gloves.
- Auto-Clapper - Invented after a love of the theater turned constant applause into chapped and sore hands. This little gizmo has a simple dial that controls how excitedly the two attached hands applaud. It even comes with extra hands for soft applause, hands that let your applause be the loudest in the room (TYL or be deafened), and metallic hands that can crush almost anything put inside.
- Multi-Sphere Flask - Once marketed as the perfect survival item, these were discontinued after rampant abuse. These flasks contain an crack to other spheres that allow liquid to pour from one sphere out of the flask in near infinite quantities.
| Roll | Liquid | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Water | Refreshing! |
| 2 | Befouled Pond Water | Chunky and foul. (TYL or vomit/lose control of bowels at the worst time for 1d4 days) |
| 3 | Liquid Starlight | So bright, and it burns going down. A lot. 2d6 stamina loss |
| 4 | Blood of the Slumbering God | Being near this brings unease. Over consumption can lead to a desire to join or start a cult. |
| 5 | Fruity Bubble Soda | Delicious, fattening, and impressive belches |
| 6 | Casklands Water | Mildly intoxicating, malty, and filling |
- Tracker Lancer - Originally marketed as a tool for parents to track kids who wander off, it struggled to find a market as the lances were considered too cruel for children. The hand-held tracker will display activated lances within several miles.
- Balloonomancy Volume 1 - The overnight success of this book made Melvin Herman wealthy enough to forget his tragic name. Unfortunately the lawsuits and outrage from people turning things into balloons that popped or floated away ruined him. Volume 2 was planned to cover reversing the "Balloonification," but nobody would take Melvin seriously. It should be noted that Balloonomancy was only intended for non-living targets, and casting it on living targets is likely to have a tragic outcome mixed with childhood delight.
- MY Pillow - The only pillow with built-in artificial intelligence on the market. It learns everything about you, and I do mean everything, in order to provide the ultimate comfort. Hailed as some as the greatest thing in the spheres, and others as the creepiest, MY Pillow wants you to know it never stops thinking about you. Users of this pillow will regain stamina even in the worst conditions.
- CT&T Calling Cards - Warm Introductions - If you're shy and introverted CC&T's new "Warm Introductions" line of calling cards are for you. Each of the 10 cards is brimming with the essence of the charming person you wish you were! Simply crack a card, and listen to the conversation sparkle. The released presence is guaranteed to charm the socks off of whoever is near by.
- Darlene's Original Body Paint - Stop worrying about what to wear and smear on some body paint. The unique blend of pigments and natural ingredients work to create colors and textures that match the fashion sense trapped inside of you. With Daphney's Original Body Paint, you can be the talk of the gala and look ready to trek across the frosted peaks of Llethm.
- Thermite Grenade - Alright, when you need to get through something that doesn't want getting through, this is one of those ways. Yep, one of what are likely a lot of ways, but here we are. Pull the pin, and after a short delay a white hot light will blind anyone looking at it, while the molten core melts a whole in anything less than two feet. These things are scary!
- Designer Slugs - At the peak of genetic engineering, Designer Slugs stand alone. After being exposed to an article or outfit and fed an appropriate diet of fibers and leather. Patented Designer Slugs will excrete the ensemble that will improve upon whatever they've seen. Unfortunately you'll have to live knowing you're wearing slug snot.
- 100-Year-Old Egg - To some a delicacy, to most a room-clearing offense to the senses (TYL or experience eye-watering wrenching)
- Gremlin Whistle - Guaranteed to bring merriment, joy, and the spice of life! One blow of the Gremlin Whistle and 1d10 Gremlins will descend on you with a mighty need to mischief and fun.
- Visible Ink - Morton's Invisible Ink desperately tried to re-brand themselves after their empire of ink that is invisible came crumbling down. Rumor has it that after an intern said, "Why not make the invisible ink become visible," that the future of Visible Ink was set. Write your message, activate the ink with the Visible Ink magic, and then your message is safe until the moment you choose (TYL 1/day to learn the Visible Ink activation spell. On a 12 a nearby item vanishes. One day it may return.)
- Obviously Fake Golden Barge Tickets - Like fake money sold to kids, these tickets are obvious fakes. Though, maybe with a bit of work they wouldn't be so obvious.
- Cable Box - Modified (Heavily) - Some engineer got ahold of a regular old cable box and, well, made it not so regular. It can connect to just about any display device, has a 1,000 year internal battery, and receives cable from across the spheres (TYL to avoid a 3 hour binge the first time you watch)
- Instant Lasagna - LAH-ZAG-NYA as they call it is a delicious layered dish of pasta, cheese, and a meat sauce. Now, whenever you're on the road and craving Lasagna, just take one of these strips, add water, and within minutes you'll have a lasagna shaped mass that chemically approximates its flavor and texture. Placing a strip directly in your mouth will be neither delicious or pleasant.
- Close Collar - If you have a pet that loves to run, the Close Collar will not only show everyone who they belong to, but also emit a tracking signal that works great with the Close Collar Quick Catcher. Comes in sizes ranging from pet rats to a purple wyrm.
