novi Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 In my game, the players are doing the Sliders/eXiles jumping between parallel universes type thing. One of their recurring antagonists is a collector (well, his agents). His shtick is that he is collecting rare items from parallel time lines. Items like: -Samuari Battle-Axes -The Art of War by Confucious* -Captain Germany's (aka Captain Nazi or Kapitan Duetschland) Shield I thought I'd see what other ideas we here in HEROdom can think of. I look forward to any replies and appreciate your thoughts. *Confucious and Sun Tzu were contemporaries, and the copy in question was actually written by Confucious himself.
