Items
Black Tea
Used by: Esmeld, Kid, Magil, Serge
How it is used: Esmeld prepares the tea, his favorite, and administers it to the party; Magil remarks that the stuff - flavored Himalayan Chimpanzee - is one of the best he has ever tasted.
Centipede
How it is used: Serge drops the rubber centipede down the Mouth of Truth; the toy is described by Kid as a tool to scare people with. It may have other personal uses.
Chrono Trigger
Main Article: Chrono Trigger
Used by: Kid
How it is used: Lynx reveals in Radical Dreamers that the Chrono Trigger, if combined with the Frozen Flame, can grant unimaginable powers over time and space, to the point that history can be shaped according to the will of the user of these two powers. Kid carries the Chrono Trigger on her throughout the journey, and if she falls in battle with Lynx, she uses it presumably to reset time to an earlier, safer moment. The fact that she has it with her supports the theory well that Radical Dreamers is a dimension in which Crono was not saved by the C. Trigger.
File
How it is used: Kid carries a nail file with her that is lost when Serge drops it down the Mouth of Truth.
Fishing Line
How it is used: Kid carries a silk line made from a Royal Silkworm with her; it is nearly lost as Serge tries to recover a piece of paper with it by lowering it down the Mouth of Truth.
Goblin's Key
Used by: Esmeld, Kid, Magil, Serge
How it is used: The Catacombs of Viper Manor can either be opened with a key that Esmeld gives the party, or in other scenarios, a key found on the corpse of a Goblin.
Goblin Potion
How it is used: The Goblins of Viper Manor carry healing potions with them that are sometimes left behind after they are defeated for the party's use; a vial also exists in Lynx's quarters.
Gunpowder Ball
Used by: Kid
How it is used: Kid carries gunpowder with her and detonates some in the Mouth of Truth; while it causes some structural damage, it does not completely destroy the Mouth.
Hand-Shaped Plate
How it is used: Kid and Serge find the Hand-Shaped Plate on the remains of a member of the Magical Gobbler Team, and insert it into the Mouth of Truth to drain the atrium of water and Piranhas.
Leather Scroll
How it is used: Kid carries with her a scroll used as an Imperial Code Chart Primer, the empire being Porre, most likely. It is spared being lost down the Mouth of Truth.
Lipstick
How it is used: Kid carries lipstick with her, used by Serge to decorate the Mouth of Truth in a vain attempt to get a reaction from it.
Martian Forest League Concealed Lesser Armament Bunny
Used by: Kid
The Bunny is a powerful incendiary device given to Martian Universal Detectives (such as Mick Van Jovi). Kid came into possession of one through a game, and eventually used the bunny to explode Lynx's spaceship.
Music Box
How it is used: Kid carries a mirror for grooming and upkeep with her; it is placed within the Mouth of Truth, but causes no reaction. Kid afterwards fixes her hair with it.
Silver Mirror
How it is used: Kid carries special, tasty raisins with her as emergency rations; they are eaten by the Mouth of Truth.
Special Raisins
How it is used: Kid carries special, tasty raisins with her as emergency rations; they are eaten by the Mouth of Truth.
Vault Key
How it is used: The vault key unlocks the vault in Viper Manor, which contains a fake Frozen Flame in various scenarios, as well as heaps of gold. It is found within the Purple Book, Back in the study.
White Jewel
How it is used: The White Jewel, when attached to a special dagger, can extract the soul from a person's body, and subsequently emplace it in another host body. It turns milky white when filled with a soul; it is possibly used to carry Kid's soul after she is removed from the Mandora Monster.
Books
Book of the Dead
Used by: Kid, Lilith, Magil, Serge
How it is used: The Book of the Dead is an ancient tome that summons forth Lilith, an assassin, to murder whoever's name is written within it. Kid accidentally kills Lynx when she writes a note of jest in the book.
Blue Book, Front
Excerpt: Dune
Used by: Kid, Serge
In the week before their departure to Arrakis, when all the final scurrying about had reached a nearly unbearable frenzy, an old crone came to visit the mother of the boy, Paul. It was a warm night at Castle Caladan, and the ancient pile of stone that had served the Atreides family as home for twenty-six generations bore that cooled-sweat feeling it acquired before a change in the weather...
Red Book, Front
Excerpt: Silence of the Lambs
Used by: Kid, Serge
A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti. Fly back to school, little Starling.
Purple Book, Front
The Neo-Epoch was damaged and expelled into space without any phase changes. Warning! Warning! Engine severely damaged! Output has been reduced to 30%! Only six Antiparticle shells remain! Shield range 16 sectors! L-spin reaction at the starboard bow! The enemy fleet is moving towards us! Gyado, wake up! Hiyu Corps, use your final power...
Green Book, Front
Excerpt: Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Used by: Kid, Serge
Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue-green planet whose ape-descended lifeforms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea...
Blue Book, Back
Exceprt: This is a hint about the Radical Dreamers sound test.
Used by: Kid, Serge
...It was only then that I realized that in this incredible game of life, the bonus is contained within love and adventure. Cordially enthralling myself into the temptations of the flesh despite a momentary rush of suspiciousness, finally I moved my fingers downward... ever more downward. Until, gulping down my many feelings of apprehension and vulnerability, into this pleasureful ocean, I...
Red Book, Back
Excerpt: The Art of War Used by: Kid, Serge
...Sun Tzu said: The art of war is of vital importance to the State. It is a matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence it is a subject of inquiry which can on no account be neglected. The art of war, then, is governed by five constant factors, to be taken into account in one's deliberations, when seeking to determine the conditions obtaining in the field. These are...
Purple Book, Back
The Purple Book, Back yields the Vault Key.
Green Book, Back
Excerpt: American Beauty
Used by: Kid, Serge
I refuse to be a victim. When this becomes your mantra, constantly running through your head, you will shift towards me-centered living. Only by taking full responsibility for your problems, and their solutions, will you break free from the constant cycle of victimhood. Remember, you are only a victim if you choose to be.
White Book, Back
Excerpt: The Gunslinger
Used by: Kid, Serge
The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed. The desert was the apotheosis of all deserts, huge, standing to the sky for what might have been parsecs in all directions. White; blinding; waterless; without feature save for the faint, cloudy haze of the mountains which sketched themselves on the horizon and the devil-grass which brought sweet dreams, nightmares, death...
