Renowned Ideas — Choose 2 community item ideas that should 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 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)  Charm of the Mage's Arrow — A charm that can store missiles when you cast magic missile. Stored missiles can be fired from the charm using an action or bonus action, and remain stored until you cast the spell normally or take a long rest.

2) Wyrmshide Bow — A bow crafted from dragon scales. You can use a bonus action to gain temporary hit points for 1 minute. While you have these temporary hit points the bow deals additional damage based on the breath weapon of the dragon the bow was made from, and you gain resistance to that damage. Damage from this bow ignores immunity when damaging dragons of the same type as the dragon the bow was made from.

3) Gnomes Knoll  — A backpack that can hold a large amount of weight while remaining light and can transform into a 15 foot square dwelling using its command word.

4) Instant Bunker Banner — A flag with 12 charges that, once planted, can be used to cast the tiny hut spell from it that remains for a number of hours equal to the charges used to cast it. It can send out a beam of energy at a creature when you use an action to expend another charge while inside the hut.

5) Wrath’s Bounty — This coin holds a two-faced figure on one side, the other blank. When you attune to this coin, your target's name appears on the blank side of the coin. You gain advantage on Survival, Investigation, and Charisma checks relating to your target. You can sense the general direction your target within a certain range. It is cursed so that your target becomes your sole focus.

6) Omniclavis — This mazework key can be placed into a keyhole to cast either arcane lock or knock at the cost of a charge. Once per day, you can cast teleport, creating a portal within a doorway.

7) Dagger of First Light — A dagger that grants a bonus to initiative rolls and increases your speed while you are first in the turn order. You can cast the light cantrip on this weapon at will causing it to deal radiant damage while lit
