Flashlight description

Tee hee.
" This appears to be a flashlight. Then again, it might turn into a blood sucking alien when you're not looking. "

So how do you come up with descriptions like this? And what kind of imagination do you have?

(This leads to a boss monster fight that actually gave me trouble. Ran away, came back, and used up my mana.)

It's more difficult than you'd think. Sometimes I come up with a good description and then I make an item out of it. Most of the time I'll come up with an item and will have a complete mind blank on the description, then I just think of something on the spot and go with it.

What kind of imagination do I have? I don't know, what types of imagination are there?

Great and lousy... functional and brain-dead... or just plain imaginative.
