+===== Design Notes =====
+//Dave, I love what you've done here! There are so many items and choices, this is really great. My only concern is that some of them kind of break the aesthetic with respect to magic. I've been really trying to keep to the "schools" of magic that lend themselves to a more low fantasy "swords & sorcery" feel. I've removed game-breaking things like teleportation, flight, and remote scrying for the most part which makes me worry about some of the more powerful items. HOWEVER, that said I want to keep them in these lists and just mark their cost up super high (like tens or hundreds of thousands of GP!). Alternately, or in addition to this, may I alter some of the descriptions to add flavor and perhaps a drawback? For example, perhaps the Sledge of the Giants only works because when the PC touches it they are actually POSSESSED by the spirit of one of the original troll kin for a bit and so they only have limited control over what they do? --AHS//
