* Stickers in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl''. And The TabletopGame/{{MUNCHKIN}} series is overflowing with examples of this. For example, a Magnificent Hat blocks the BunnyHood.effect of curses, and a Bow With Ribbons gives elves a combat bonus even though the ribbons look like they'd get in the way.
* These things are everywhere in ''VideoGame/PhantasyStarOnline''. Weapons can be anything from a frying pan or wok to a game magazine. Bunny ears, cat ears, and wedding dresses show up as types of armor. And, if you play your cards right, you can turn your MAG into most (if not all) of Sega's game consoles.
* ''VideoGame/PlanescapeTorment'', being in large part a deconstruction of [=RPGs=], has no armor or shields, and precisely one sword somewhere late in the game (and one other that its user cannot let go of since it is actually shapeless matter formed by his force of will). What it ''does'' have is tattoo slots, earrings, equippable intestines, replaceable teeth, and an ''eyeball'' item slot. On the other hand... nothing would actually fall into this trope by virtue of the entire world being flat-out made out of magic and nothing else to begin with.
* The ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' series lets you make your team carry everything from claws to tails to rocks to ashes to scarves to bows to ribbons to berries to herbs to ''sweat'' and ''drool'' and even ''breath'' of other Pokémon to get stat boosts or other effects. You can make a Pokémon hold anything, but a large set of them actually grant a tangible benefit like +10% damage with a certain move type, a small stat boost, always going first, etc. There are also consumable items that the Pokémon will use automatically when hurt or affected with a status ailment.
** Notably, the later games have items that are actually ''harmful'' to the user, causing damage, causing status effects, and lowering stats. These are generally useful for either forcing the opponent to switch items with the holder, or for triggering an ability that only works while under a status effect or when damaged.
* Similarly, ''VideoGame/RiskOfRain'' usually has some association between item and effect or explicit magic involved, but then there are some off-the-wall things like a ukulele that shocks things or a goat hoof that boosts speed.
* ''VideoGame/SailorMoonAnotherStory'', has the Sailor Senshi equip jewelry to increase their stats rather then any actual equipment. Earrings, Tiaras, and even a wrist watch.

They are bought in regular stores run by muggles, (Though the character specific ones have to be found) so they can't even be magical.

* ''VideoGame/SuikodenIII'' has sets of armor and accessories that are divided up into things that particular characters can use based on their relative size/class; characters that can wear lightweight things generally can't wear heavyweight things, and so on. In particular there is the "Girl" class of items which generally can only be worn by women, which includes jewelry pieces-- but the first Squishy Wizard you can get in your party can equip Girl-class accessories despite being a man. The strategy guide advises buying him a pearl necklace (and taking him out to dinner).
* Stickers in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl''. And the BunnyHood.
* ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'' has the Equalizer and Escape Plan, pickaxe that, respectively, do more damage and let you run faster when you're low on HP.
** It's gotten much, much crazier with each update. Here's a short list: jars of piss that make people take more damage, jars of milk (or ''something'' white) that recover health for damaging people covered in it, steaks that let you move faster and punch harder but disallows using your gun and makes you take more damage as well, a club with a nail through it that lets you capture points faster, a kunai and katana that restore health with a kill, a fan that makes one person you hit with it at a time take more damage, a syringe launcher that lets you run faster as you charge you Medigun, and a rake that increase health restores from health packs but slows down recovery rate from mediguns and dispensers to 1/4.
** The Black Box: a rocket launcher that heals you whenever you shoot someone with it. At least the Blutsauger involves needles and blood.
* ''VideoGame/{{Terraria}}'' generally averts this, a balloon increases jump height, a watch tells time, etc. Occasionally, however, some things just wont add up. How exactly does a horseshoe prevent fall damage? Or a really specifically carved chunk of obsidian make it possible to touch molten rock and a smoldering meteor?
%%%%* The ''Tiger Woods'' games have accessories that improve your stats when equipped. It makes sense for golf clubs and balls, but most of them are something like the Shirt of +2 Putting. Similarly ''Alfa Romeo Racing Italiano'' tagged on RPG elements to racing with given helmets increasing your car's speed, or making you harder to spook.
* ''VideoGame/TrailsSeries'' usually tries to explain how accessories prevent certain status effects, like lighter preventing [[HarmlessFreezing Freeze]] or glasses - Blindness. More abstract status effects, however, still can be prevented by random jewelry, like Coral Bracelet stopping Seal. At very least more powerful accessories, that prevent more than one effect, are usually described as having pieces of [[MagicFromTechnology sepith]] in them.
* In ''VideoGame/WildArms'' series the Sheriff Star is the most powerful accessory, usually granting immunity to all status effects and providing a number of ridiculously powerful buffs. It's commonly guarded by [[{{Superboss}} Ragu o Ragla]], making it a BraggingRightsReward. And yet, there's no indication that it's anything other than a simple badge. The same goes for a number of lesser badges in ''4'' and ''5''.
