The TVTropes Trope Finder is where you can come to ask questions like "Do we have this one?" and "What's the trope about...?" Trying to rediscover a long lost show or other medium but need a little help? Head to Media Finder and try your luck there. Want to propose a new trope? You should be over at the Trope Launch Pad.

Do we have a trope for (mainly) videogame characters that are inherently weak but still powerful because they have a dangerous item, such as the classic Gnome with a wand of Death?
Not Amplifier Artifact or Upgrade Artifact because they both involve the Gnome's inherent attributes changing. This Gnome is just as pathetic and weak as ever - but it has a wand of Death.
EDIT: After roughly 20 minutes of searching and not finding it, I might as well start an YKTTW on this.
