Heroic Ideas — Choose 2 community item ideas to be made!

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 Storms — While holding this staff, you deal additional cold, lighting, or thunder damage, as well as sense all weather within a 1-mile radius of you. The staff has charges you can expend for spells such as call lightning, sleet storm, and thunderwave.

2) Grave Lotus Seedling — This eyeball-looking seed, when planted, blooms and creates a single humanoid cadaver seedling. Rarer versions of the plant can create various other types of corpses.

3) Riptide Greaves — These leather-bound greaves are each adorned with a single large green fin. While wearing them underwater you gain a swim speed, if you already have one it increases instead. Additionally, you can expend the greaves charges to cast a variety of spells from them.

4) Gravity Grapes — A creature hit by one of these odd, spongy orbs are nearly weightless grapes is affected by the reverse gravity spell. If a creature eats one, there's a chance they become weightless, as if under the levitate spell, or have their weight multiplied and become slower.

5) Tabard of Authority — This bright yellow tabard resembles the high-visibility garments worn by laborers, inspectors, or officials in hazardous zones. While wearing this tabard, you have disadvantage on stealth checks relating to visibility, and you have advantage on Charisma (Deception) checks made to impersonate a figure of authority or to conceal unauthorized presence.

6) Submerged Reins — A heavy necklace made from thick seaweed woven together with small water lilies. While wearing the necklace you can breath underwater. As an action, you can pull the necklace off and cast the find steed spell with the following changes: it appears as a white warhorse with seaweed hair, it has a swim speed, and other benefits. Additionally, once per day, you can target a creature within range to deal cold damage to it. You can repeat this attack on each of your turns as if concentrating on a spell.

7) Kiss of the Water Moccasin — This poison is derived from serpentine toxins and causes a creature slashed with it to begin hallucinating, changing their perception of their surroundings to be in a swamp and surrounded by snakes. The hallucination ends when it is no longer poisoned.

Keep on adventuring!
