Another question on items (Magic)

[bnickelsen]

So i think I remember seeing in a video that you hide detail on an item from the players.

They were showing a magic weapon I think.

So as part of teh treasure I give the party a +1 sword. But they don't know it is a +1 sword. Not yet


What know is it is a sword.

Is there a way to do that?

Again I saw something about this but can't find it now.

You want to enable magic item identification in your DM options. Once you do, the item will have an "identified" indicator on the top of its window, and two new text fields for its name and description before being identified, e.g. "Unidentified Longsword" and "This longsword is half the normal weight. It is adorned with symbols of nature: leaves, vines, stars, and the like."
