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) Occult Shears — A pair of daggers that combine to make a magical pair of shears. Items cut with the blades can't be repaired with the mending spell, and spellcasters hit by them make concentration checks with disadvantage.

2) Astral Door Knocker — This door knocker features a sphinx head that when attached to a door, releases its ring which can be used to rap against another door using the command word. For the next 24 hours, creatures can pass through either door to emerge from the other, after which the ring returns to you and a new link can't be created for 7 days.

3) Deep Sea-mitar — This weapon is made of a petrified octopus tentacle, sharpened to a fine edge and you gain a +3 bonus to attack and damage rolls. While attuned, you gain a swimming speed, can breathe water, and can communicate with beasts that breathe water. You can expend its charges to cast various water related spells. Additionally, the weapon can allow you to charm a creature or create a sphere of water to contain a Large or smaller target.

4) Arcanist Focal Lens — This multi-lensed monocle shows the you the area your spells will affect. You can expend a charge to increase or reduce the size of a spell's affected area.

5) Great Blade of the Wrathful — This barbarian weapon creates an aura around you while raging. When you roll a 20 on an attack, all hostile creatures must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be consumed by rage, attacking the nearest target on their turn. However, you are compelled to make each attack recklessly as well.

6) Hypnotic Honey Crunch — These honey candies hold an enchanted snake's tongue at their center. Eating one allows you to cast the suggestion spell. The save DC can be increased by eating more candies along with the first, though each of these will damage you slightly. Eating enough of them will grant you advantage on Intimidation checks, but disadvantage on Persuasion checks.

7) Pouch of Fallen Leaves — A pouch of dried leaves that can be spread out to create an irresistible pile that forces creatures to succeed on saving throw or be forced to use their movement to jump in.

Keep on adventuring!
