Well, here's an excerpt from my upcoming Oz submittal to FASA....

LION TOTEM / Special (Totem) / 0Y
+11,000/+2 (so as not to munchkinous) to user. Ever time User attacks
and destroys a Province (L5R joke), owner gains 10 Reputation. No, make
that 20 Reputation.

TIN MAN TOTEM / Special (Totem) / 2Y
User counts as a Cyborg.
"If I only had a heart -? I got one, chummer, and it's pure cold steel."

SCARECROW TOTEM / Special (Totem) / 2Y
User loses all levels of Technical. For each level of Technical lost,
tapdance for two minutes.
"If I only had a -- Narf, narf."

DOROTHY TOTEM / Special (Totem) 3Y
Trash two Red Ruby Shoe tokens on Runner to return user to the safehouse
immediately.

TOTO TOTEM / Special (Totem) / 6Y.
Y'know, all Toto ever did was bark. No game effect.

IGNORE THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN / Special (Stinger) / 4Y
Play after a shadowrunning team passes the last Challenge on an
Objective. The shadowrunning team does not gain any Bonus from the
Objective (but scores Reputation as normal).

WICKED WITCH OF THE WEST / Challenge (Awak.. nah.)
4/4. When Wicked Witch of the West is revealed on a shadowrun, owner may
choose to cackle. Every ten seconds the player cackles, Wicked Witch
gains +1/+0. You may trash any Bucket of Water token on a present
Runner to trash Wicked Witch.

WICKED WITCH OF THE EAST (Challenge)
4/5. When Wicked Witch of the East is revealed (blah blah).
Shadowrunning player may trash a Location he controls and flip it in the
air (at least a full one-eighty degree spin); if Location lands on
Wicked Witch, she is considered a bluff.

FOLLOW THE YELLOW BRICK ROAD / Objective
Any player may pay 1Y to put a Munchkin token on top of their Challenge
stacks. Each Munchkin counts as a 2/2 Challenge, may not be sleazed,
and do not count toward the total number of Challenges allowed.

UNDER THE RAINBOW / Special (Stinger) / 4Y
Trash all Munchkin tokens in play and roll D6:
1-2: Put an equal number of Oompa-Loompa tokens into play. [Special
Oompa-Loompa rules follow.]
3-4: Put an equal number of Ewok tokens into play. [Special Ewok rules
follow.]
5+: Put an equal number of Time Bandit tokens into play. [Special Time
Bandit rules follow]
"Who ARE all these guys, anyway?"
