Items of great power--imbued with various types of magic--are few in number and highly sought-after in this region of the world. Intelligent beings and dumb beasts alike often find themselves irresistibly drawn to these items of power.
It's said that centuries ago, the finest magic weapons ever crafted cam from the Forge of Spells, a great magical forge from which an alliance of dwarves, gnomes, and humans would channel the deepest and most powerful energies of the elemental planes into wonderful items of unrivaled potency. The magic contained therein and the fruit it bore in the form of magical artifacts did not escape the notice of a tribe of marauding orcs who sought the power for their own. In the ensuing battle, much of the forge was destroyed and its location lost.
Despite hundreds of years and hundreds of lives spent in the search, it has never been rediscovered. Those fortunate enough to possess items of magical power wisely keep them hidden, passing them through the generations to secure their families' legacy and power.
As such, the party will only rarely be encountering any magic items. If you're looking for any particular flavor, I can probably accommodate, but it won't be necessary to put in any kind of detailed "wishlist" at this point in the campaign.
