For some pulp games building some terrain. One of the ideas I have is want to do a warehouse where there are stacks of wooden crates. For objectives amongst the crates want to have half boxed up relics / artifacts. Have a list a few but looking for a few more. And yes I know I am borrowing this idea from certain movies and shows. This is the list of relics have so far 1. Ark of the Covenant 2. Sarcophagus 3. Olmec head 4. Art painting 5. Greek statue 6. Alien – maybe 7. What other relics are there that might have been warehoused away

You've missed the obvious one: The Holy Grail – or maybe that should be the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch? |

Years and years ago, the Prince Valiant newspaper comic strip featured a very detailed half-page drawing of Merlin's "trophy room." It featured many of the ideas already mentioned. I wish I'd saved that strip, it had a lot of cool ideas. Basically, include artifacts associated with every historical or mythical figure you think would interest the players, especially if the players would have a personal interest in the artifacts. Crown of Sargon Scepter of Horus Drinking Cup of Buddha Poison and Dagger used by Romeo and Juliet Triple Collar of Cerberus Spear of Boudicca Printing Press of Ben Franklin And so on. |
