Things that look fine:
Belt
Something to write with (pen, pencil, etc)
Clothing (probably just turn the "body part" armor into "clothing")
Containers
Spring
Watch
Wall (already have it under simple)
Furniture (probably like chair and table)
Book (already added book and scroll)
Bucket (probably under container)


Naw
Small building (Bit too much)

I see in "Passive" you have orbiting orbs and Aura. What about that thing, whatever it's called, such as is common in sports video games, where a circle or moving image or something shows up under your feet? A "Floor Aura" vs a "Surrounding Aura", or something. I can't remember what it's called. Anyways, it also shows up in other games (some of the ones I'm talking about might be folded into Circles/Runes).
Such as this:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Some elements, possibly.

Cornstarch (Probably simple uncommon/mundane) - a grainy yellow powder. Useful in cooking, and easy to burn (though no more dangerous than burning, say, wood). It's most interesting properties are those exhibited when mixed with liquid, as it becomes an oozy not-quite-liquid-not-quite-solid substance. On it's own it comes in small piles of powder.
Brass/Bronze or Tin (for mixing with copper) (What's a trumpet if it's made of some useless gold?)
Hill Billy (Complex, similar to Victorian or Bushido in that it represents an... exaggerated culture)
Folded Space (RARE, possibly dangerous) - Pokeballs, Bags of Holding, the TARDIS; All have something in common. They are bigger on the inside than the outside. Without a container or something to fit into, it feels like everything grows larger and/or you have shrunk when you step into a folded space, but it unfolds and dissipates rapidly. Blended with other materials, it causes them to weigh far more, be far more effective or ineffective, and/or expand rapidly, as it packs far more of those materials into the space it would normally occupy. Violently reacts when blended with several possible materials, due to their natures.

Complex Shapes:
Interlocking Bricks
Briefcase (Container with Handle)
Instruments (Trumpet, Lute, Trombone, Piano, Tuba, Calliope, Saxophone, Organ, Flute, etc)
Drill

Ok, what kind of animals you guys want? Anything goes, though it may not all find it's way in.

Further ideas for items are welcome. I'm considering whether to leave most things vague so that it will allow for more freedom (Ie feline instead of Cat, Lion, Tiger, etc) to invent whatever seems correct for that series of elements and forms.
