Bonewheel Shield
Giant wooden wheel encircled by spikes. Half-melded to a strange skeleton.
Can be used as a great shield, only for the great gaps. But at least the spikes turn into weapons with a good spin. Strange indeed!

Washing Pole
Katana forged in an Eastern land. Very unusual specimen with a long blade.
The blade is extremely long, but as a result, quite easily broken.

Black Separation Crystal
This black crystal, long a symbol of farewell, is granted to banished Undead. The crystal sends phantoms back to their homes, or sends you back to yours.
Beware of fickle use of the item if you intend to nurture relations.

Belated news that I’m sure you’re all aware of by now, but I hope you’re as excited for the Dark Souls remaster as I am!

Bottomless Box
A peculiar bottomless wooden box. Its origins are unknown. Some deride it as a symbol of unbridled avarice.
Any number of items can be deposited into the box, and items can be managed while resting at a bonfire.

Painting Guardian Robe
Robe worn by the alabaster-clothed guardians of the paintings in Anor Londo. Offer substantial protection versus magic.
They have guarded the Great Painting of Ariamis for ages, passing their duty down through generations, but the reason for doing so passed from all memory long ago.

I’m back, my loves! I’m so sorry for the inconsistent posting. Unfortunately, my access to my computer is extremely irregular at best, leading to absences like these. There’s not a great deal I can do about it other than be thankful that these item descriptions aren’t going anywhere.

Crest Shield
Shield of a nameless knight, likely a high-ranked knight of Astora.
One of the enchanted blue shields. The Crest Shield greatly reduces magic damage.

Knight Helm
Helm of a lower-rank knight. Despite the thin metal used, the grooved texture gives it added protection.

Great Heal Excerpt
Great miracle cast by advanced clerics. Restores high HP.
Great Heal Excerpt borrows from only several verses of Great Heal. As a result, it can only be cast a stark few times.

Tin Darkmoon Catalyst
Catalyst born from the soul of the Dark Sun Gwyndolin, Darkmoon deity who watches over the abandoned city of the Gods, Anor Londo. Gwyndolin is Gwyn's lastborn and a legitimate god, but he is also a Moon sorcerer, and this wand is boosted by faith, not intelligence.

Soul of Gwyndolin
Soul of Darkmoon Gwyndolin, god of the Dark Sun and guardian of deserted Anor Londo.
Special beings have special souls. Use the soul of Gwyn's lastborn to acquire a huge amount of souls, or to create a unique weapon.

what does the "warm" tag mean?
It means that the item is warm, of course!
You might have noticed that this tag, like the ‘soft’ tag, is always accompanied by ‘snuggly trade’. Snuggly accepts items in trade that are either warm or soft, or both, so when I post such an item I include my best guess as to which of those attributes she likes it for.

Ring of the Sun Princess
This ring is granted to those who enter a Covenant with Gwynevere, daughter of Lord Gywn and the Princess of Sunlight. This slightly warm ring boosts the synergy of miracles.
The Princess of Sunlight Gwynevere left Anor Londo along many other deities, and later became wife to Flame God Flann.

Dark Hand
The Darkwraiths, incited by Kaathe, use the power of the dark soul to absorb humanity, an art shared by this weapon, which also acts as a special shield. The ancients, particularly, could sap the humanity of even a replete saint in the blink of an eye.
