Specific Cursed Items
Specific Cursed Items are provided as examples of cursed items.
They are given creation prerequisites, should
someone want to intentionally create them (although that does not
need to be the origin of the item). Note, however, two exceptions:
The crystal
hypnosis ball and the bag of devouring
cannot be created by any known means.
A simple detect
magic spell yields a misleading aura and strength, often indicating that
the item is a noncursed item of similar sort. An identify spell only has a 1%
chance per caster
level to reveal a cursed item’s true properties,
including the cursed aspect. Analyze dweomer
reveals the true nature of a cursed item.
