Illusionary Wall

Those commoners will never go walking on your property again. Assuming they can walk straight after the headache your illusionary wall gives them. This is of course a demonstration (not by me) of the crazy things you can do with photoshop. In many ways people editing digitally are illusionists. They create things that cannot and do not exist and place them into visual form. I've talked with friends about the possibility of a superhero who uses the power of photoshop. Editing reality to the impossible, limited by the time you have available. Interesting concept but likely hard to execute without the right DM.

Spot Checks

Ah spot checks. The best thing you can ask for to get your players paranoid. Also the best way to keep them off their guard if you ask for enough of the. "Oh he wouldn't have something here, we've been making spot checks for the past ten minutes and it's always been nothing". Then they fail the critical one and surprise round occurs. Even better if it's something that they could have noticed. Though this brings up my wish for degrees of success and failure in more mainstream RPGs. In the poster case you could have them notice the feet, but not describe them as feet. More perceptive characters would actually notice the toes and be able to deduce that something may be exploding out of the ground in short order.

Backstory

Backstory is as important as your DM makes it. Or as much as you invest in it. And some backstories could use some more investment. Especially ones that are only 9 words long. Of course if you're going for a one shot a 9 word backstory might be all you need to get through. That said if you're writing a short story for your backstory when you're playing in a one shot you may be into overkill territory.

Helm of Dwarfyness

I got nothing. Other than to say I want one. You know you do too.

This Castle of Mine

Every adventurer should have a home sweet home, a base of operations, a sanctuary, or to top off the list: A Castle. A castle screams wealth, power, class, and nobility. All wonderful things to have to show all those other "would be" adventurers that you have truly made it.

Cthulhu in Power Armor

There are days when your shenanigans cause the GM to throw their hands up in disgust. And then you get Cthulhu in power armor. Rocks fall, everyone dies is so last decade.
