24)A Ring to Rule Ewerything That is Left-it can contain multiples (like 7 or 9) amounts of cubic metres the size of a soccer field

"We have an army...yup...and i've got this ring"

You could deploy colums of tanks,stockpiles of ammo and stuff of a company or space marines...you could also capture a living Trygon, Carnifex, Necron Battle Construct that will otherwise will be imposibble to capture...or simply throw a few thhousand cubic metres of rock on your enemies simply flying above them on your jump pack

I hope you will enjoy this

Sorry for crappy english, it's my second language.

Humans untainted by any form of mutation or warp taint, possibly from a crashed sleeper ship launched before the discovery of warp travel, drifting through the stars for eternity. Men of Gold in other words, not the genetically modified colonist/spacers that were known as the Men of Stone (which all humans are descended from today). Or even a gene library containing templates of original terran flora and fauna... perhaps... EVEN ONE OF THE HOLY CHICKENS! THE CREATURE SAID TO TASTE LIKE EVERYTHING AND WAS SO DELICIOUS IT WAS EATEN EVERYWHERE ON TERRA IN AGES PAST!

My favorites are 1) books that raise a character's knowledge, and 2) tools that raise a character's Trade (something) skill.

But also,

Space Marine items: powered armor (the kind that doesn't need recharging), terminator armor, thunderhawks, other flyers, any vehicles (but scout bikes rock)

Master-crafted items that give re-rolls, or are Proven, Felling, Sanctified, etc. I have no problem making up items like this on the fly, though I also like the tables given in Stars of Inequity.

Brain tape machine

Aqua vitae

The Emperor's favorite house slippers

and there's always starship components that are just different, say a combination assault scanner/passive detection array or a simply better Ultra.

A battle standard once carried by the Emperor (or Horus, if your people are into that sort of thing) himself.

An un-imprinted arc-flagellant servitor, inquisition grade.

An ork that thinks he's a human, and proudly serves "DA EMPRAH".

A void kraken lure, or perhaps even... a harness?

STC patterns for warp navigation cogitators that do not rely on navigator input. (I'm sure zero Navis Noblite assassins would find the party.)

Personally, I like to give my players things that force them to make hard choices. Where the right thing to to might be to just burn it and move on, but OH IT'S SHINYYYYY.

It should also be noted that "wondrous" need not mean "useful". I've given my players all kinds of things, from ancient power armour to deadly xenos weaponry, and to date their favourite loot remains a box of moth-eaten felt hats. It's all a matter of what the audience wants =P

I love giving my players interesting and bizarre pieces of gear. Their last haul, from the half-destroyed vault of a light cruiser was one box of spook, á 15 or so doses, one of those sievestones from Into the Storm, one box of Theophist's Philtre, three bottles, one stun-sphere, and one bottle of herbal liqueur. The spook, since nobody bothered to ask the astropath what it was, caused a minor daemonic incursion when the Explorator tested it on humans (Perils of the Warp is amusing).

Other than that, the Stryxis excellent if you want to show players the weird and wonderful things the galaxy has in store. Also excellent if you want to creep them out. The merchant they met mad some kind of archeotech sword that the Rogue Trader was very keenon, but was ultimately too squeamish to sacrifice over one percent of her crew for it. It is a power sword with the Indestructible quality from Stars of Inequity, with some more bells and whistles attached. Slapping on a Stars of Inequity quality on pretty much anything makes them so much more interesting, I find.

EVEN ONE OF THE HOLY CHICKENS! THE CREATURE SAID TO TASTE LIKE EVERYTHING AND WAS SO DELICIOUS IT WAS EATEN EVERYWHERE ON TERRA IN AGES PAST!

Fully using this. Thanks.

Well all battle standards carried by marines are relic,also ones belong to Sororitas or famed heroes of Imperium like Drusus or Macharius.

And it came with the plot in build

As for Aqua Vite I once think about a huge "wase" that is filled with liquid that can cure any illnes and act as a rejuvenation potion.

And to make matters more interesting it could be not the liquid but the wase itself that transforms liquids to aqua vitae.

I always thougt abouy the scheme to brainwashed tau Earth Caste engineer to belive that he is working for a greater good.

Secrets of nano crystaline alloys anyone?

A kraken egg.

Unfinished project that merges Tau battlesuit technology and Imperial ancient tech like Contemtor and Battle Automata parts...

@Sirfrog

I always loved the Carnelian Sievestones. I once got a really big one, and used it to upgrade a colony's food and water distribution. Good times.

On my link below is a list of Archeotech / Treasure. Some examples that previous people mentioned and I copied for humor (or use which was humorous) are attached below for easy viewing

Emotion mask - A collar studded with many precious gems and jewels, which glimmer and sparkle. Once worn, it adjusts itself to the wearers emotions, and can be used to portray those emotions in the manner its wearer requires. Viewers will think the wearer more empathetic, more in tune with their ideas, or more intimidating.

Half of a "Rite of Duplessence" in a stasis vault. You know, the procedure where the brain of another member of the Adeptus Mechanicus is integrated in the mechanical body of the explorator who can communicate by thought with each other. The secrets the vault brain could tell the explorator! Especially the secrets that no one is supposed to know of course.

The crown of light: A best quality helmet with a crown like headgear on top. In the crown, there is one clear gem. If activated (voice) the gem emits a constant blinding light. Anyone facing the wearer counts as blind, no "contemporary" technique is able to do anything against this. Those who cannot turn their eyes fast enough (routine agility check) will be temporarily blinded for (10-TB) rounds.

The light-less cloak: A heavy black and un-reflecting cloak (or cape) made of a strange material. It counts as a good quality flak coat (for stats!) but has AP 5 against all laser based attacks. The cloak will warm up if under fire, but will give this warmth to it surrounding rather than to the wearer (which is isolated by the cloak). After a couple of hits, the air will start to flirt around the wearer of the cloak and those within close combat range must pass toughness each round or will gain a point of fatigue. The wearer better wear some kind of breathing gear as well, or he will suffer from breathing incredible hot air!

• Two 50 cm black metal disks. Each has two buttons, white and black.

o White, the disk is immobile, and levitates if it was activated in the air or void. Can support the

weight of a Baneblade Tank.

o Black, the disk returns to normal and weighs 100 grams.

Firebats. Storm trooper carapace armours with flamer coils and tanks built in, running along to release torrents of flame below both arms. Have them count as best quality Flamers, give them an extra 2 AP on the back but if it penetrates it sets off an explosion. Maybe emblazon the suits with Ecclesiarchal motifs from before the Age of Apostasy?

Archeotech Component - Bridge of the Eternal Vigil

This ancient bridge design, which borrows from that of the most powerful land-based war machines, the Titans, is viewed by many with more fear than awe, as the very idea that the ship's Lord-Captain would be permanently interred, never to again leave his command throne, is terrifying to consider.

Only the largest, most powerful ships are likely to receive this upgrade, and only if an individual willing to be forever merged within their ship can be found. To the willing recipient, radical procedures are performed, removing many of their internal organs, and replacing them with powerful cybernetic devices, which will be able to carry them on through the centuries. They are permanently anchored into place, becoming immobile, but their connections to the ship allow them to perceive, and to manipulate almost any system from the bridge, as if the vessel, itself, was an extension of the Lord-Captain's body and senses.

Man in the Machine: The ship's Lord-Captain, who has been integrated into the bridge, gains Machine

(4), though this trait does not affect the recipient's mind, in this case. Their Movement permanently becomes 0. They also gain 1d10 Insanity points, due to the initial broadening of their senses, and an additional 1 Insanity point each time the ship sustains a critical hit (a Difficult (-10) Willpower Test can negate this, as the Captain has become more fortified by his condition).

The Walls Have Eyes: The Lord-Captain's insertion into the ship's systems gives him unprecedented observation and interaction with his crew. While this can make for a much more smoothly running vessel, it can also grate on the crew, who quickly learn that there is no place on the ship, their home, where the Captain is not watching and listening to them. Permanently reduce Morale by 5 points. From now on, due to the speed at which the Captain can respond to any problem and give orders or inspiration to the crew, any crew or morale loss will be reduced by 1d5 points to a minimum of 0.

One With the Hull: The embedded Lord-Captain has senses, and control, over almost every inch of the vessel. When this ship is the victim of a Hit and Run action, he treats the opposed Command Test as a Routine (+20) Command Test, rather than the usual Ordinary (+10) difficulty.

One With the Weapons: His union of sensors, skill, and weapons grants the Lord-Captain's ship increased accuracy. All Ballistic Skill tests to fire the ship's weapons conducted by the Lord-Captain gain +5.

Hull: Cruisers and up | Power: 3 | Space: 1 | SP: 3

Hull: Battleships | Power: 5 | Space: 3 | SP: 3 (apparently, Battleship's stuff is a lot bigger)

I always loved the Carnelian Sievestones. I once got a really big one, and used it to upgrade a colony's food and water distribution. Good times.

I always prefer to give items that are both a curse and a blessing.

One such item is a pair of occular devices (glasses) that were used by spies in the DaoT, best auspex etc. They are of course cursed with a bloody history of death and betrayal, but the player's don't need to know that ^^

hey are of course cursed with a bloody history of death and betrayal...

You say that as if it's a bad thing ...

Have you watched Game of Thrones lately? Everyone dies, no one wins. Good series.

My players failed miserably in identifying it, so it is now a slightly exotic but elegant fruit bowl on the great conference table.

As a lover and frequent user of Carnelian Sievestones and a xenotech loving heretic, that both deeply infuriates me for its improper use and yet is also freaking hilarious.

If anyone's done the alternate Eldar Gambit 40k for a game, you could try some treasure that is a union of human and Eldar tech. Though in vanilla 40k it would likely be DaoT/Eldar.

I posted some of this stuff in another thread, but for some reason can't find it now.

The Art of Trade: This thick byzantine book is a much sought after work penned by one Sun Tzu, who was among the first of Rogue Traders. A man who founded almost the entirety of a sector on the basis of his own personal skills of manipulation, trade, and war. There are only four remaining copies known to exist, so this fifth copy is incredibly valuable. It is widely believed that each copy was penned by Sun Tzu himself and that a curse he laid upon them results in great tragedy befalling anyone who attempts to make copies of the original.

The book provides an in depth look at commerce and the tactics and techniques by which a merchant can ensure his business empire flourish and his enemies wither and are absorbed.

One who thoroughly studies this book and has it on hand for frequent reference and examination receives a +10 bonus to Commerce and Barter checks as well as the Scholastic lores Beauracracy and Judgement specifically pertaining to trade and business.

The book is so valuable that if one should choose to sell it (and could find a buyer with that sort of resources) it would provide a +1 to profit factor.

The Stasis Coffin: When the huge stasis coffin's field is shut off and the lid cracked chill mist seeps from inside. A black mechanical hand grips the rim of the coffin and a massive armored form hauls itself to it's feet. It's motions are deliberate and smoothly abrupt if it can be called such. The armor that sheaths it's body head to toe alternates between blued steel and shiny black in color, except for around the mouth, where a pale and human looking lips and cheeks can be seen. A long black slit of a visor shields it's eyes. The shining domed head swivels to regard each person in turn before settling back the one who'd opened the coffin.

“ Your move, creep.”

Investigation reveals that the creature before you is an unusually intelligent servitor. It knows that it was once an Arbitrator. After his death in the line of duty the arbitrator was converted into the form of a Crusader Pattern battle servitors, which are known for their extreme durability, if not much in the way of agility or speed. What was unusual is the amount of the man's original mind and personality that managed to cling to it's mortal remains.

When informed of the events aboard the Light of Terra it will indicate that that appears to be a legal transition of ownership, and will request to know who it's new owner is.

Special: While no longer an Arbitrator or even a replacement for a proper bosun, when allowed to act at it's own discretion aboard a ship this servitor is an excellent aid for maintaining order. It provides a +10 bonus on all checks relating to the suppression of mutiny, crime, and other forms of sedition against the proper “legal” authority (that being the Captain and his senior crew).

5 points if you know who this is

Armor of the Green Knight

The Green Knight was a man from a feudal world who fought during the Angevin crusade, eventually becoming a Champion of Drusus, one of the Living Saint's trusted aides. This is his armor, an achingly ornate suit of plate armor, complete with gold filigree and green lacquer like coating. It's a best quality suit of sanctified Feudal plate that lacks the primitive quality and provides a +10 to willpower on tests against fear. It also counts as a Reliquary of St. Drusus (core book pg 30)

The PC's have encountered, and boarded, a giant dirigible that's capable of operating as a small aircraft carrier (36 craft). They're trying to figure out how to get it off the world it's currently on so they can bring it back to their colony.

They've just acquired a super-heavy APC that's got the armament of a normal tank and platoon sized (30) carrying capacity. It's not super powerful, but it's big and ornate so the PC's like it.

Once PC has a pet land squid. He befriended it with suplexes.

The Prophet Device: a Navigation and Psykic aide LINK

a Pre-Heresy ship component, usable normally by space marines with Psyniscience

Remains Pre-Great Crusade colony ship.

...i swear I had more, will be back

1. Abandoned Imperial Knight or Warhound Titan (watch your players move heaven and earth to get a vessel to carry a Titan)

2. A wrecked (salvageable), Covenant-Fortress. This massive thing on the right-( http://www.dakkadakka.com/s/i/at/2014/11/28/7a6b3fa3b8eb8feb864c16c03b5f59ee_78293.png__thumb )

3. A WMD or two. Massive Atomic Weapons or maybe even Life-Eater bombs or a Cyclonic Torpedo.

Sort of makes me feel lame for thinking just "a Land Raider, but with no strings attached." I can think of a number of scenarios where it could be fun to go down to the surface in this most pimping of rides, but the red tape of getting one from the Astartes, since every Land Raider belongs to them, is tedious, as is keeping one you "found" when the Space Marines happen to find out you never let them know about it. If I'm being really greedy, also a vehicle, such as a Thunderhawk (just because I don't know what else the Space Marines deposit Land Raiders on the ground with, or, barring that, a suped up Valkyrie that can transport the Land Raider to and from my cruiser.
