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

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) Solacesteel Preserver — A necklace for a cleric or paladin made from a shattered mourningsteel weapon, strung on a braided silver chain. It acts as a holy symbol, prevents you from being frightened, and has charges that can be used to cast healing and charming spells. Your charms are effective even when targeting a creature you are fighting, as are your healing spells for fallen creatures at the cost of you taking necrotic damage.

2) Frying Pain — A weaponized cast iron skillet with charges that can deal extra fire or bludgeoning damage on a hit. It offers o bonus to attack and defense, and meals cooked in it grant temporary hit points.

3) Revelry of Rest — These black bone instruments protect you against spells and effects from undead, and you can substitute that damage type you deal when you target an undead. Each instrument has charges that can be used to turn undead, potentially destroying stronger undead with each additional charge used.

4) Raider's Dust — A unique alloy dust that attracts rust monsters, forcing them to make a saving throw to resist the allure of the dust which prevents the monsters from attacking metal-clad adventurers.

5) Seer’s Sling — A sling with charges that can imbue its ammunition with divination magic. Expending those charges allows you to mentally receive visual information from where the stone bullets land.

6) Sprinter's Pounce — Sleek cheetah-spotted gauntlets with gemstones fashioned into short claws. While wearing them, you gain a bonus to attack and damage for your unarmed strikes, and you deal magical slashing damage instead of the bludgeoning. They also have charges that allow you to double your walking speed in one direction and make a powerful slashing attack against each creature in that line.

7) Torrdok's Magnificent Top Hat — This colorful top hat is part of a collection of items from a renowned illusionist. The wearer gains a bonus to the DC of their illusion spells, as well as access to the hypnotic pattern and major image spells once a day.
