• Items should be either marginally useful in most situations, or very useful in specific situations.
  
• Giving the item a drawback or quirk is highly encouraged, especially if it's more useful
  
• The more these items can look similar to and function like existing items, the better.
  

• Cleats - Nonslip on grass tile turf
  
• Loaded Dice - Have a higher probability to roll set number

• Deceptive Mug - A mug that holds twice the normal amount of liquid
  
• Stolen Credit Card - An ID card with a open pin number and a certain amount of cash stored on it. Good for one purchase before it gets locked, so make it a big one
  
• C.A.T ears - Cat Ear headset that also acts as a translator for languages like monkey or martian
  
• Prank Stickers - A box of stickers that look almost exactly like real items. Apply the decal and watch as people fruitlessly attempt to pick them up

• Welding fuel cart - A device that when used on a chem dispenser allows it to dispense welding fuel along with the other chemicals.
  
• Brain-to-machine uplink - A machine that when implant into one's head allows them to interface with machines remotely like a borg. Access is determined by a card you scan with it before implanting. Using it causes a random amount of brain damage, with the amount rising the more it's used.
  
• NanoTrasen hat - A hat identical to the syndie hat but blue and it has a "N" instead of a "S". Make security robots besides Beepsky salute the wearer. (Side note: Maybe rework the security robots at some point).
  
• Synthflesh automender - Guess.
  
• Tripod kit - Parts of a beacon that can be assembled via a wrench, allowing a pod to wormhole to where you put it. Does not work on actual floors.

• Metal foam sprayer - A device like a fire extinguisher, but sprays metal foam to harden around breaches and such.
  
• Funny pen - A weird-looking pen that writes in comic sans.

The other makes you skid to a stop, or if you're sprinting, slows you to a walk speed. You make them by plating a single Floor Tile with a block of material in the Electroplater. Perhaps they also need an electric charge to work, and have to be placed over a cable and use some APC power, or stop working when the power is cut. (Maybe emag them to add a nasty shock to their active effects?)
