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)  Pin Pal  — You can attune to this plush doll by pricking yourself on a needle that comes with it. It takes on your likeness and can be controlled mentally like a familiar, and also allows you to succeed on a single death saving throw each day.

2)  Crash and Burn  — A pair of heavy metal battle gloves with vents. You can expend charges from the gloves to expel flame from them to enhance your attacks in a few ways, such as dealing bonus fire damage and dashing away from your target, or dashing towards your target and dealing additional bludgeoning damage.

3)  Mercurial Blade  — A silvery blade made of a poisonous liquid metal, frozen to maintain its shape and you can transform it into any weapon that deals piercing or slashing damage. It gains a bonus to attack and damage rolls while transformed into a piercing weapon and deals extra damage while transformed into a slashing weapon. In addition to a special property for each form: breaking the tip off to deal damage over time or absorb the poison to be poisoned and regain hit points.

4)  Redsmith Backpack  — A leather backpack that makes sounds of clinking metal when moved even when empty. While you have it, it can magically create crafting components below a certain value, reducing the time and cost required to craft an item. A variant of the backpack also magically creates ingots each day that can be used to create weapons that melt away after some time.

5)  Tapestry Cloak  — A cloak that you can flourish while standing against a solid surface to transform yourself into a hung tapestry or laid out rug. You can choose the appearance of the tapestry or rug.

6)  Ballroom Breaker  — An elegant ballroom mask that grants a bonus to Charisma (Persuasion) checks made between dusk and dawn, and can be used to magically create and wear a formal outfit at any time.

7)  Painter's Flight  — A long white coat covered in patches of paint. While wearing it, you can paint with your hands, and can touch a flat surface to transform yourself into a painting on that surface. While in this form you can move along that surface and adjacent ones.

Thanks to everyone who submitted item ideas and voted for them this week!

Keep on adventuring!
