The Wondrous List of Wondrous Items (Suggestions Welcome!)

So, recently, we've been deciding what could be considered a Wondrous item in R&R. For all you non-D&Ders, a wondrous item is a rare, one-of-a-kind artifact with a special effect. Seeing as we have no magic, we were wondering what we could use. We have come up with a couple, and the thing is, they are insane, ridiculous, and totally crazy. I.E. - The wondrous items in R&R are made to make no sense at all. For anyone still a little confused, a Wondrous Item would be something like a Bag of Holding - A small bag with TARDIS-esque proportions inside. I will be publishing a list of Wondrous Items as and when the party find them, but I don't have many ideas! So, my proposition - And this goes to the players too - is that you post ideas here. If you know how to write an item effect, it would be welcomed, otherwise, just give the gist of what it does, and I may turn it into some crazy find. A couple of rules for Wondrous Items: Wondrous Items can never be weapons. They may deal damage in a round-a-bout way, but are never weapons. They must be leveled - They can be obscenely overpowered, yes, but all items will be equated to an average level of the party. They may or may not have limited uses - Some effects may only be able to be exploited a certain amount of times. Others may have an effect that gives them a chance to destroy themselves with every use. There can only be one - Of each wondrous item, of course. What would be so wondrous, then? The One Ring is always a valid suggestion. Other than this, go wild! I look forward to hearing your suggestions. SUGGESTION FORMAT [ITEM NAME] Item Type (E.G, Consumable, Tool, Armour etc...) Item Flavor - A brief description of the item. Item Effect (Can be done in D&D terminology if possible) CURRENT LIST OF ACCEPTED ITEMS: Reaper Eye (Effects Pending) Motivational Clarkson V.I. - This V.I. was created from synthesized clips from an old TV star from many years ago. It was meant to improve motivation, and it did... until the user started missing.
The Reaper Eye: An experimental reaper device designed to be used by indoctrinated agents to manipulate non-indoctrinated individuals. The device uses strong waves of indoctrination on the victim to instill an obedience to the user. The victim will forever follow the verbal commands of the user. However, the same rules of indoctrination applies: the more control the user attempts to apply, the less capable the victim becomes. The process of indoctrination requires time, the more time the process takes, the more control is instilled. Thus, it maybe necessary to arrest the victim until the process is completed. The process can only end properly if ended by the user with the proper commands, if interrupted, the victim cannot be controlled. Only one victim can be indoctrinated at a time, and the device requires a week to recharge after one use. If interrupted, the device will still require a week to recharge. The victim must remain in the range of the eye, or the device will be interrupted. Anyone within the range of the Eye, including the user, will experience headaches and possible nausea, but only the designated victim will be indoctrinated. Once the process is completed, the victim will pass out for 24 hours, and will be unable to recall the events leading up to the indoctrination. Leveling and the exact numerical effects will have to be determined by you guys, but I thoguht this would be a cool thing if a group like ours came across it.
