TOPIC: PHOTOS of NEW TOKENS are POSTED!!!!

i'll have a few to trade...still looking for that +1 Plate...hehehe

from wikipedia:<br /><br />

The Hand of Glory is the dried and pickled hand of a man who has been hanged, often specified as being the left hand.<br /><br />According to old European beliefs, a candle made of the fat from a malefactor who died on the gallows, lighted and placed in the Hand of Glory (as in a candlestick) would have rendered motionless all persons to whom it was presented. The Hand of Glory also purportedly had the power to unlock any door it came across. Because of this the Hand was sometimes used by burglars to rob houses.<br /><br />

<br /><br />Actually the coolest story that I've ever read (though I do like the Potter books) is a Hellboy story where Hellboy is investigating a robbery and finds a melted down "candle" and figures out that it was a hand of glory that the thief used to paralyze everyone in the house...

If the hand was dried, why would it need to also be pickled? Or vice versa. Seems to sort of defeat the purpose.

Maybe after it's dried, the pickling process infuses it with evil smelling salts ... seriously I have no idea, but I stand the statement that the Hellboy comic it's in is pretty cool (as are most of the Hellboy comics).

I wonder if the hand takes a SLOT?  And if so what slot?<br /><br />I can see it being something that is just carried in a sack...but then again does this thing "attach" in order to allow the bearer an extra ring...and does that have a charisma consequence???  <br /><br />Could get ugly when shaking hands...<br /><br />(worse than that sceen...you know the one...)<br /><br />Doctor, doctor, doctor...doctor, doctor, doctor...doctor...  Quick name the movie!

<br />I wonder if the hand takes a SLOT?  And if so what slot?<br />

<br />It takes up the amulet slot in actual DnD.<br /><br />

EW - its an undead hand...can Clerics/Paladins use that thing?<br /><br />I wonder if TD rules will require the amulet/necklace slot to don the hand...kinda makes sense.

Ooo... so you could trade in your Amulet of Protection +1 to get the Hand of Glory to let you wear a Ring of Protection +1!  Oh wait...<br /><br />

Wearing a mummified hand around your neck?? EEEEWWWWWW!<br />I'll stick with my wings for an accessory!

<br />Ooo... so you could trade in your Amulet of Protection +1 to get the Hand of Glory to let you wear a Ring of Protection +1!  Oh wait...<br /><br /><br />

<br />You're not taking into consideration the uptick in status though.

<br />Ooo... so you could trade in your Amulet of Protection +1 to get the Hand of Glory to let you wear a Ring of Protection +1!  Oh wait...<br /><br /><br />

<br /><br />See that is not what I had in mind...a true stacker arty does not cost a slot...so perhaps this hand is something you can have in a pouch and it allows the extra ring to be worn at no slot cost.<br /><br />But I can see it costing a different slot to gain an extra ring slot...DOH... where is that token guide?

The Hand takes up an amulet slot.<br /><br />
