My coin collection from that goddamn press had over 700 pieces at one point. A GM actually warned me I was in danger of corrupting my character. I've stopped packratting random silly crap ever since.

Although I do have a loose tooth, a handful of magic dust, a magic seed and some other random things lying around just because you don't see em every day.

P. S. I go to sell stuff at the pawn and I end up buying more stuff! It's an addiction I tell you!

I gave him a dwarven lockpick too.


I collect onyx crap. There is a sad reason behind it too. When I first started playing the first item I was ever given was an onyx studded black leather thigh sheath, you know the ones that come from the rogue's guild. I didn't know it was a guild item. I thought it was the coolest thing ever and since then I've been adding and adding some more. I've got more random onyx crap than I know what to do with but it's cool to me.

A year or two ago I started collecting my boxfounds. Basically anything with a description "an onyx-studded necklace" etc. I was bored at work one day (and couldn't get into GS4), so I looked at one of my logs and entered all my boxfounds into a database. Then I made a little search button to find a certain gem type. I had quite a few requests for a while. "Do you have anything with sapphires?" Oh, do I.

I've since sold all that shit and now just collect useless things. And 4 or 5 editions of the newcomers guide to give to people that are being asshats.

Before I quit I had two lockers filled with kitten and cat stuff. I had stuffed kitten toys, mechanical kitten toys, articles of clothing and containers with kittens on them, even a cat toy (meaning a toy for the cat not a toy cat). Plus every altered item I owned had a picture of my cat on it. I let all that stuff poof with Ti, it was part of her personality.

Kinda like RL. I used to have 32 pet cats, down to 12 and spoil them silly.

I actually have a blood red fingernail. Got it from that box... what's it called? The one that you pay and stick your hand in for prizes? It can chop off your hand too. My mind is drawing a blank.

Got a loose tooth also.

Not sure if this was posted yet but...

Knew a guy in RR who collected table legs. When the Stone Eye got tables, they made one after him... and some of the other RR locals.

I think it was Vindartin. Not sure about the spelling either.
