The ancient Empire of the Golden Crystal fell so long ago that little is known of them besides their legendary magical power. Supposedly, in the Golden Age of the Crystal Empire, cities were filled with enchantment, spells far beyong the ability of modern magi.
A tomb robber has returned to civilization with something never seen before: Ceramic vials of reddish dust that supposedly enhance a magician's power tremendously when the dust is sprinkled upon the floor of his workroom. The rogue selling the vials claims that they were recovered from a ruin of the Crystal Empire, but can he be believed?

I love items that cause psychosis. Even better when it comes on slowly and the character doesn't know why. If handled well, it will look as the character is simply changing and most of the other players won't assume a cursed item is taking over, especially if recovery takes as long as the symptoms do to appear.

This could lead to petty theft of tip money left on the table of a bar; pocketing small amounts of treasure from what the delvers discover so he gets what he deserves, or even long conversations about how he deserves a bigger share of the profits, because he is more valuable to the team. At times when his currency is getting low, he could refuse to pay for anything. Instead, he would try to make others purchase what he wants.
Ultimately, this could lead to muggings, break-ins, and brawling over what he perceives he deserves. No matter how he obtains the money, once he has it it is rightfully his.

When going to a shop the shopowner just accidently exchanges his silver for gold, instead of copper.
My general concern is: how do I get my player to act out the psychotic nature of this item?
I know I have one problem with my group... for most items it is impossible to determine before hand who is going to end up carrying the item around.
