Bag o' Many Things

By Schpook (dgpaul@cycor.ca)

Treasure/ Chimera

4/3 points and up.

Glamour

1 and up as maximum capacity.

Description

The Bag comes in two varieties: the treasure and the chimerical Bag. These bags are rather rare and sought after heavily. They appear as small pouches to large bags with drawstrings. They have the ability to materialize real or chimerical objects depending on their nature. (Treasure may provide real. Chimerical can only provide chimerical objects. ST's discretion: whether or not certain real objects cost double the glamour.) This power is activated by the owner of the bag reaching into the bag and thinking or wishing for what he or she needs. This is where the fickleness of glamour manifests itself as Glamour interprets the need by its own paradigm. It replenishes its store of glamour 1pt at a time by being in a freehold for 24 hours or by being fed 1 dross once a day until it reaches maximum capacity.

Powers

Materialize: The Bag may create, or summon something across time (past and present only) and space to suit its owner's needs. Chimerical objects last 1 day. Critters may last longer. This ability costs the Bags own glamour. The following is a chart as an example. (ST's may adjust to suit their story's needs).

Glamour	Description
1	Small and medium simple objects
2	Small complex object/ large simple object
3	Small "living" thing/ med. complex object
4	Med. living thing/ large complex object

Weakness

Whimsy of Glamour: The Bag will cater to the wishes of the owner in unorthodox and spontaneous matters. This may be literal or figurative (according to the wish), useful, benign or dangerous. Sometimes it will require the drawing of a second item in order to make the first one work. (This leaves room for ST creativity)

Here are some examples:

Nick Nack, the nocker, is trapped in a nasty prison. He reaches into his bag asking it for something that would disable the lock so he could escape. He pulls an electric drill the first time. (oops, no electricity, guess you have to draw again...)

Nexus, the Sluagh, wants something to make it so that nasty dragon won't chew him and will leave him alone. He draws something that doesn't seem to end. It turns out to be a combination muzzle and blindfold for dragons.

Anatoli, the Satyr, wants something that will help him catch up with Pritha, a female Satyr, that ran off and is playing hard to get. He draws a huge cannon. It's just the right size to make him a human cannonball.

Yip Yap, the Pooka, needs something to scatter that nasty pack of Redcaps harrassing some animals and draws a grenade... of laughing gas.
