A pair of chain mail greaves fastened on beautiful, dyed leather (+2d10 hp for fine quality).
A wrap-around or short skirt made from scale mail polished to a fine shine (+2d10 hp for fine quality).
A figurine or carving of a religious scene, created by a master artist. Likely worth a fair bit if you can find the right buyer.
A box of alchemist’s tools; vials, censers, and whatever else is required to turn innocent herbs and frogs into conspicuous, but colourful potions. Fireplace must be acquired separately.

Examples would be elephant graveyards, faerie dance circles, lost temples, haunted gold mines, and other locations that may have near-mythical qualities in local folklore.To generate more suggestions, simply refresh the page.
