No one in the party has any means of identifying them, but if you make Arcana checks your wizard and the exiting paladin might be able to make some educated guesses about what's what. Anyone can roll this (watch Crush get a nat 20)
Usul has been taking with Sen a lot about magic recently, and has started to figure some things out, so will give these items a closer look. arcana 6 ((well shite... Guess my new magical ability is overwhelming...))
Sen is able to tell that there is a whole lot of magic coming off of some of these items. He isn't able to discern what the wands do, but it looks like the rings have some sort of protective ability and the circlet is just oozing with power. Examining the daggers, Veryes says that there's something about them that just feels...different. Better, somehow. She would take one of them along with one of the rings.
Looking at the potions, Sen would know enough about magic to be reasonably confident that these look very similar to healing potions; the liquid is red, and there's a faint sparkle when the liquid moves. Another potion is orange and there is about 1" of smoke sitting at the top of the bottle. The final bottle appears to be empty, though there is some weight to it and Sen can kind of make out some kind of liquid inside.
If no one else needs him for anything, Shadrach is going to begin the process of climbing out of the pit to seek out his employer.
Sen flinches as people aggressively grab objects from his hands. If there's a ring left, he'll happily keep it for himself.
(@DM: You said several potions and several rings. Could you give us a more precise list?)
So, what are we doing now? asks Sen, who had been enjoying studying the objects and is rather sad to be brought be to the reality of his almost certain imminent death.
5 rings - they aren't identical. Some are a little more bright than others, but the difference is negligible.
4 daggers - identical. The handle of the blade has a serpentine shape engraved into it.
6 potions. Four are healing potions, the other two are the ones described above.
1 circlet. A simple ring with a small red ruby in the front.
EDIT:
As people grab potions and rings from him, Sen finds himself drawn to the circlet, in the same inexplicable, indescribable way he was that night. The circlet is pulsing with magic. With possibility. It is his, now.
Sen keeps a healing potion for himself, and passes the others out to Usul, Aria and Crush. I guess these might help us survive. And you all seem to get into a lot of fights! I'm honestly not sure what the other potions do, so I'll hang on to them for a while, unless someone wants to carry them.
He hands over the daggers to anyone who wants them. He keeps one ring for himself, and puts it on, trying to get a sense of what it does.
(What do you want to do about the circlet? Has Aria already taken it? If not, then Sen will try to snatch it away when she reaches for it.).

Sen stares at the circlet, watching the light reflecting in the ruby, studying the various red hues and the hints of images contained within. He admires the golden curves and the craftmanship involved in creating such a marvel. He loses himself in the mystery of such an enchanted, and enchanting object. He stands staring at its unfathomable beauty, really until someone pokes him hard.
It's so beautiful. And so different. Like... but not at all like... Slowly, reverently, Sen puts the circlet on his head and tries to smooth his messy hair around it so it doesn't look too absurd.
Crush would take the potion and toss it in his bag before reaching his large leather gloved hand into the group of rings and grabbing the strongest and sturdiest looking of them and putting it on his finger

Crush would glance at the contents of the bag before moving out towards where he thinks Anna is being held....
(arcana! 10)
(He thinks they are.. neat)

Sen dips his finger into each of the potion bottles and tastes a drop (supposedly this is allowed in order to identify potions?).
He also studies all the various objects for a while: Arcana: 7

"Well... I doubt Durnan is trying to harm us..." Usul says, taking the dagger and putting a ring on

Usul feels a strange pinching sensation for a moment, and then feels better, somehow.

Aria jabs the handle of the dagger into Sen "You'd think I'd be starting at that thing like that...."

(So ome ring each?)

One ring each. I'm making them a little different for everyone because why not?
Crush picks the largest, sturdiest looking ring - the ring seems to adjust itself to his finger, and he feels somehow more... like himself.
