Heroic Ideas — Choose 2 community item ideas to be made!

Hey heroes!

Each week on Discord, community members nominate other members' suggested items to be made into official Saddlebag items. The top two most voted-for item ideas each week get made, following back and forth workshopping and discussion.

You can submit your ideas on Discord, too! Come join us in the #patron-item-workshop channel!

You may recognize some returning item suggestions! Items can be renominated and re-drawn for weekly polls following a week-long cooldown.

Here are the randomly selected item ideas drawn from this week's nominations!

Ideas

1) Scouring Splint — Magical armor that protects you from extreme heat and can summon a sandstorm to deal damage to nearby enemy while providing cover. If you're in a natural sandstorm, the benefits are increased.

2) Preservation Jar — A jar for preserving body parts. A creature whose body part is placed in the jar is considered under the effect of the gentle repose spell. You can perform an hour long ritual to cast true resurrection from the jar, targeting the creature whose body parts are in the jar. After casting in this way, the jar is destroyed.

3) Hawkeye Horseshoe Charm — This dual horseshoe charm is accented with a small crosshair eye. While attached to a firearm, you ignore disadvantage when firing at long range, ignore half and three-quarters cover, and can empower a headshot with necrotic damage, potentially blinding them.

4) Grand Sultan’s Signet — A ring crafted to defend against elementals, granting you bonuses on saving throws against spells cast by elementals. It has charges that can be expended for spells such as detect evil and good, fog cloud, and spike growth, or gain temporary resistance against a damage type and empower the next melee weapon attack with that element.

5) Duel and Dealt — A paired rapier and pistol that grants you bonus to Charisma (Intimidation) checks, able to choose in close quarters, and can injure a creature's specific body part to deal damage and inflict a status effect.

6) Potion of Eldritch Clarity — A chilling potion that suppresses charms, fear, madness, and other mind-altering effects for 1 hour, in turn dealing damage to you for each effect suppressed.

7) Geomancer’s Footwraps — Dusty leather footwraps that are stitched with map-like contour lines. You can make a special unarmed attack at range, resist being moved or falling prone, can gain temporary tremorsense, and can expend charges for spells such as stone shape, stoneskin, and wall of stone.

Keep on adventuring!

Duel and Dealt & Geomancer's Footwraps seem like huge narrative items so I love them the most but the Horshoe charm would pair so well with the pistol. Preservation jar makes me excited since I have a low magic campaign and it just fits so well lol

Omg this week has such good concepts. I would love to see the ones that don't make the vote have a chance to come back.

I have not played them yet but the gunslingers I have created seem to all look like either Yosemite Sam or the Clint Eastwood character in The Good The Bad & The Ugly
