Oh, and let's avoid simple stuff like "+1 sword." I'm talking about magic items that would actually have an impact on a fantasy story, rather than just improving a character's behind-the-scenes 'stats.'
If you want, feel free to mention the actual name of a famous item, or just list what it does. I'm hoping to avoid duplications. I mean, Sting and Glamdring are both famous magic swords, but they don't really do much aside from glow when goblins or orcs are near.
Some starters.
1. Flaming sword.
2. Lightning javelin.
3. Sun sword.
4. Life-drinking dagger.
5. Returning thrown hammer.
6. Vorpal sword.
7. Helmet/ring/cloak of invisibility.
8. Shield/fleece of invincibility.
9. Winged boots.
10. Healing chalice.
11. Belt of giant strength.
12. Hat of disguise.
13. Shield/bracers of arrow deflection.
14. Orb of controlling dragons.
15. Sheath that keeps you from bleeding.
16. Staff that can change length.
17. Statue that turns into a creature.
18. Scrying mirror.
19. Wand that zaps like a gun.
20. Headband/glasses that let you see (in the dark/invisible things/illusions).
21. Boots of running really fast.
22. Intelligent weapon.
What is there to add?
