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) Staff of the Crossroads — A quarterstaff made from a crossroads sign with four separate signs pointing in different directions. You can use charges to dictate the direction of a creatures movement, or use the staff to detect the nearest settlements or well-known landmarks.
2) Nevermore’s Vigil — An elegant black cane topped with a sculpted raven skull and black opals for eyes. Spellcasters gain a bonus to spell attack rolls and saving throw DCs while holding this cane, and you can use it to briefly gain advantage on Perception checks. It has charges for various spells like clairvoyance, phantasmal force, polymorph (a raven only), or the message cantrip.
3) Comet Tethershot — This musket with a series of open magnetic rings in place of a barrel. Its charges can be used to imbue a shot with gravitational pull, dealing an extra damage and tethering the target to you. This tether manifests as a glowing, comet-like tail, slowing the target and allows you to try and pull it closer on subsequent turns.
4) Riff's Dimensional Splitter — This rough-hewn dagger is a biproduct of another magical dagger that has been overused. You can created a temporary copy of yourself wielding a copy of the dagger who lasts until the end of the turn, or longer if you're attuned to Riff's dimensional ripper. The copy can take actions but can't cast spell or use magical items except the dagger.
5) Impulsum Butterfly — This brass clockwork butterfly occasionally flaps its stained glass wings. It has charges that can be expended to force a target to reroll a saving throw. Alternatively, you can expend all charges to shatter the butterfly’s wings in a thunderous crash to treat the result of an attack roll, ability check or saving throw as a 1 or a 20. Once used, it takes 3 days for the glass wings to slowly reform.
6) Meteorite Button — An amulet that causes the wearer to fall faster, taking more damage from falling. You can pin it to another creature with a grapple check.
7) Field Cannon — A flintlock weapon with a mix of evocation and transmutation runes etched on it. When you attack with the weapon, you can adjust the size of the shot to one that mimics an artillery shot, cannon ball, or a scattershot, changing the damage or effect of the shot.
Keep on adventuring!
