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) Totem Top — A magical spinning top that, once set into motion, becomes invisible to everyone but you and stays nearby you. When you are targered by an attack or spell that would do damage, you can use your reaction to teleport to the top, causing the attack or spell to miss.

2) Balanced Scales — These set of scales, which can be used as a spellcasting focus. When activated, you can cause up to three creatures to gain the effects of the bless spell, as well as an equal number of additional creatures to be affected by the bane spells.

3) Trickery Stick — This magical staff can copy the sensory spectacle for any cantrip or 1st-level spells you witness, able to copy up to five spells. As an action, you can recreate the visual and auditory effects of the spell, though not the effects.

4) Causticoal Pickaxe — This warpick is tainted by volatile and impure coal it once mined. Whenever you score a critical hit, it deals bonus acid damage and gains an attack bonus. After enough total critical hits with this warpick, it explodes, dealing acid damage to nearby creatures and destroying the pickaxe.

5) Meteorite Button — An amulet that causes the wearer to fall faster, taking more damage from falling. You can pin it to another creature with a grapple check.

6) Wave Glass — A self-refilling shot glass of seawater that grants the Aquatic Adaptation of the alter self spell, once safely per day. Repeated drinks risk exhaustion and death by this effect causes the body to become encrusted with barnacles.

7) Trenchcoat of Subtlety — A trenchcoat that allows smaller Humanoids to stack together in height, granting bonuses to convince others of the disguise.

Keep on adventuring!
