As a citizen of the Imperium since the late 70s, I absolutely love this printable prop for Traveller. Mark Wicker posted the full PDF for an Aslan restaurant menu over on the Traveller RPG group on Facebook. He says it just the first. Be sure to check out the mouth watering sea centipede.
Thanks to this pair of props from Ugo Serrano I learned the difference between a reliquary and a monstrance. A reliquary, also known as a phylactery or fereter, is a container or mount for a sacred relic. A monstrance is an open or transparent reliquary.

James Ewing has made a career of producing amazing artifacts for collectors. These bracers are just one example of his creativity and craftsmanship.
Bodvar Bjarki followed the Berserkrgang (way of the Bear shirt) and was one of the greatest Berserker warriors of King Rholf Kraki (King of Denmark). The exploits of Bodvar Bjarki are noted in a great Norse saga that pre-dates the fall of the Roman Empire. It is said that, in the Kings final battle, Bodvar was absent from the field for a great deal of the time. Just as all seemed lost, a great bear appeared and tore into the enemy ranks slaying men as it went. When one of the kings men found Bodvar in his tent in a meditative state he roused him. As soon as his eyes opened the bear disappeared.
Certain germanic legends also speak of belts or bracelets made from the skin of certain animals which were used by shapeshifters. The wearer could draw on the Ethereal energies in these garments to aid their transformation or ethereal projections of their chosen animal and it's powers.
These Bracers are made from nickel silver and brass with hand made buckles on leather with salvaged fur. They bare a brass Bear claw motif and brass plaque with "Berserkrgang" etched in runes. Between them, in the centre of each bracer, is Odins illusionary rune which is said to have been used by Norse shapeshifting warriors on the battlefield.
For years, Valara Atran has been recreating items from the old school Elder Scrolls games. Her latest is the wonderfully obscure blue amulet owned by Arnora Auria of Bruma in Oblivion.
When it comes to gaffs, the amazing Tom Kuebler is in a class of his own. His latest is his take on the traditional sideshow-style Fiji Mermaid.
Jeremy Smith just opened up a store on Etsy, and one of his first items is this Necronomicon Totem. Very Giger-ish, and I mean that in the best way. I like it so much I've already ordered one.
Rushing's Rarities returns to our pages with this Hellraiser-inspired skull, featuring hand-cut antique nails.
