I've been thinking of some kind of staff for the last relic (edit: forge item).
???? (maybe Moreen's (Morak's sister) staff) - weapon
Add 1 to your craft during psychic combat. After the combat draw 1 spell. If you won you gain the spell. If you lost or had a stand-off the spell backfires on you.
For some reason the discard condition didn't show on the last post.
'You may discard the staff to counter any spell cast on you, including this one'.
Perhaps I'm deadwrong with this but I thought it might be an interesting, although a bit complicated mechanic, to try. Perhaps we can leave out the draw a spell card part and just have it as a counterspell when discarded.
'Add 1 to your craft during psychic combat.
You may discard the staff to counter any spell cast on you (including the command spell)'.
Or the discard could be to prevent being transformed to a toad. We might need a Frog's eye after all...
I agree that a counter spell item would be a good idea.
The set already has one though, the ring of denial. http://www.talismanisland.com/?page_id=6915
I think a Forged item that includes discarding it to prevent being Toaded would be good. Fits thematically that the dwarves would have a counter to that, since the Fae like to toad their enemies.
