This item was something I thought of after working on a few toons with an exp penalty. I propose a Burr rarity single use item that is able to reduce a characters exp penalty by 20%. Now I'm not sure this can be done by scripting or not as I have little to no knowledge of such things. I just thought it would be a good item to include that would allow players to build more diverse toon that could be unique to the server.

I've never even given a second thought as to whether or not a char on this server has an xp penalty. At most, I'd need three more thids runs to hit level *60*. A level-up book takes care of the xp penalty at lower levels in one swoop, if you read it late. I don't think the xp penalty prevents anything - it's only a minor deterrent. An xp penalty hurts in a game where there is a finite amount of xp and you may not be able to reach the higher levels, as in a single player mod. Unless we suddenly have a quota ( -Gauntlet voice - "Red Warrior has killed too many thids!"), there's plenty of xp out there.
Now, with that aside, a consumable item that could be used (only once per char) to give you a 10-15% bonus to your xp gain rate would be 'cute'. It's not as nice as the BUR sapph of sagacity that would let you skip the low levels you've seen 800 times before, so I would propose this as a UR item - and I'd much rather see this than another UR shuriken ammo container.
Unfortunately, I believe that the xp penalty is built into the game engine, and this is a facet of the game that cannot be done without rewriting the underlying server.

No, the xp handout is scripted, we disabled the built in handout a long time ago. We're actually planning to add favored class status to subraces, soon.
