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)  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.

2)  Ring of Contempt  — A cursed ring that glows with cold spite whenever you're near a specific creature type. If that creature hits you with an attack, it takes cold damage and the damage you take is reduced by a similar amount.

3)  Wand of Evil Deeds  — This wand looks like a mummified finger and smells of rot. Necromancy spells cast while using this as a focus spend a spell slot lower than required, and it deals additional necrotic damage to good align creatures.

4)  Fiend's Regret  — This dark broken devil's horn, fashioned into a dagger, deals extra radiant damage against fiends. It also grants resistance to fire damage, offers some protection against spells cast by evil creatures, and can cast the banishment spell.

5)  Spirit Shunting Salt  — This salt shaker has been blessed with potent divine magic, and is topped by a silver skull cap. You can fling a pinch of it on a ghostly creatures to banish them to the Ethereal Plane, or use it on a creature that being possessed by an undead to end the possession.

6)  Paranormal Trapper  — A tiny magical cube that can be activated with a command word, covering an area around in strange light. An undead creature in the light is paralyzed when it enters the light if it fails the saving throw, or slowed if it succeeds.

7)  Shackle of Mundanity  — A heavy spike dagger with otherworldly runes on it that deals additional psychic damage to aberrations, and forces them to succeed on a saving throw or be transformed into a commoner. It becomes the same race as you, and is charmed by you for 30 days or until you harm it. After the charm ends, there is a chance it remains friendly to you.

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

Keep on adventuring!
