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)  Scroll of the True Self  — A scroll to make your outer appearance match your inner one. You can use the scroll to cast the alter self spell using the Change Appearance option. When the spell ends the appearance becomes permanent.

2)  Constellation's Origin  — A pair of silken gloves decorated with a starscape pattern. While wearing them, you can see the stars even during the day, can't become lost while you see the sky, and can summon a javelin to make an attack. Additionally, you can summon a series of stars and deal damage to any creature caught in the line between them.

3)  Solacesteel Preserver  — A necklace for a cleric or paladin made from a shattered mourningsteel weapon, strung on a braided silver chain. It acts as a holy symbol, prevents you from being frightened, and has charges that can be used to cast healing and charming spells. Your charms are effective even when targeting a creature you are fighting, as are your healing spells for fallen creatures at the cost of you taking necrotic damage.

4)  Dragon Nemesis Splinter  — A club of oak with knots of garnet, swirling with magic. You can expend charges to create a creature of blood from a list that you can command. You gain various benefits depending on the form chosen including: a bonus to AC, a flying speed, or blindsight.

5)  Silvercloud Bomb  — A silver, draconic bomb that explodes into a magical mist that behaves like a solid. You can use the mist to craft all sorts of solid shapes, like walls, sculptures, and more. A creature within the area of the bomb can attempt to escape its area with a successful save. Otherwise, it's trapped within the area.

6)  Origami Paper Game  — A simple origami game made from folded parchment. You can manipulate and shuffle it to reveal a short fortune determined by the GM, or possibly conjure a random cantrip spell scroll hidden inside that can be used by any character.

7)  Electric Gittern  — This gittern is strung with the tendons of a behir, granting it multiple electrical properties. You can expend charges for different effects, such as summoning a line of lightning, wielding it as a lightning mace, or dealing thunder damage to creatures you've deal lightning damage to with the gittern.

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