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) Silent Embrace — A black spell scroll that glows with the oath of a forgotten assassin when in darkness. As an action you can speak the oath to cast the silence spell on yourself that remains centered on you and is considered difficult terrain for any other creature. Additionally, you can force creatures in the area to make a Wisdom saving throw or be affected by the slow spell.
2) Arcane Casing — This scroll can be used to capture the arcane energy of another spell. When you read it, you cast counterspell against the triggering spell. If you succeed, the spell is contained within the scroll and can be thrown at a point within 60 feet, dealing damage for each level of the spell contained within the scroll.
3) Scroll of Comedic End — A scroll that was seeming ripped out of a child's picture book and still has a cartoonish sketch of an anvil on the page. When you read the scroll, choose a point within range where an anvil appears, briefly hovering in the air. Creatures below the anvil must make a Dexterity saving throw or take damage, be knocked prone, and restrained as the anvil lays on top of them.
4) Hallowed Scroll of Warding — A scroll that is enveloped in consecrated protection texts and ribbons. While attuned, you have advantage on saving throws against spells and effects from fiends and undead. Additionally, you can expend charges to increase the DC of your Channel Divinity class features until there are no charges remaining.
5) Scroll of the Sandstorm — A sandpaper-like scroll that summons a raging sandstorm in a sphere at your location that moves with you. The sandstorm grants you cover against ranged attacks, bludgeons other nearby creatures, and allows you to make reaching sand tendrils to attack faraway creatures. It lasts for 1 minute or until you lose concentration.
6) Stonerake Scroll — Reading this scroll causes a stone claw to form around your hand that lasts for 1 minute or until you lose concentration. When you hit a creature with the claw, it takes damage and the claw shatters. The target must make a Constitution saving throw or be petrified for 1 minute.
7) Scroll of New Dawn — A narrow strip of translucent paper that glimmers with a warm iridescence. Reading this scroll causes it to emit bright and dim light for 10 minutes before flaring violently in a burst of light that causes magical items which recharge at dawn to regain all expended charges. A creature attuned to one of these items takes 1d4 radiant damage for each charge.
