As much as that would be awesome, knowing that the Token Guide has spilled the beans on what the treasure tokens are for this year (Sling ammo of chaos, & Pelors potions) and what the volunteer token is to be (dragonhide shirt), I do not recall seeing a new neck-slot item that was not already anticipated in the token shipments.

How about a third hand slot, that doesn't let you make extra attacks? So a Fighter could use a two handed weapon and a shield; or a Wizard could use both Scepter of Might and Staff of Power.

An extra slide might slow things down. Especially if a group had more than one AoW.But in the same light, how about a special power regen. So a cleric could turn twice in a room, two times monster lore, maybe two spells in a round for the wizard, etc. Or a 'haste' effect that let you act twice for one round of one combat.

If it doesn't allow extra attacks, how would their be extra slides?

If you had a third hand that didn't make attacks you could still use your two real hands to make attacks. Maybe I was overthinking that. I was thinking the third became your off-hand kind of thing.

I think it'll be something related to the Dungeon. Like... Fire immunity for the Smoak dungeon, or gills & freedom from underwater restrictions for the Lich dungeon.

Nope, my idea was you wouldn't get two (or three) weapon fighting. Just an extra hand.

However, you could hold multiple one-handed weapons and switch between them without needing to spend extra time. Like a Fighter hitting the Lich with the Scepter of Might until he reached the maximum penalty, and then switching to his Dread Sword without needing to spend any time, or losing the benefit for using a Might item.

A total removal of all water penalties would be nifty.

Perhaps, if Smoak is making a comeback this year, we can recycle the dice and chart from last year (before they go to auction).

Come up with something different for Sea Lich dungeon.

You get a dead parrot that might distract the Lich and you can attempt to return to get an extra token draw?
