This bag has an interior space considerably larger than its outside dimensions, roughly 2 feet in diameter at the mouth and 4 feet deep. The bag can hold up to 500 pounds, not exceeding a volume of 64 cubic feet. The bag weighs 15 pounds, regardless of its contents. Retrieving an item from the bag requires an action.
If two or more Bags of Transmission have been placed in a completely dark magically isolated location for two hours and three minutes, they become attuned to each other. This means that their interior spaces become joined in such a way that the holder of each bag can put items into a smaller subspace (spherical, volume: 16 cubic feet, does not affect the weight of the bag) from which the holder of any of the other attuned bags can retrieve it. When new items are placed in this subspace, all attuned Bags of Transmission vibrate slightly (once). While there are items stored in the subspace, all attuned bags emit a slight magical glow that is enough to light one's close surroundings in complete darkness but still easily concealed in clothing.
If the bag is overloaded, pierced, or torn, it ruptures and is destroyed, and its contents are scattered in the Astral Plane. If the bag was attuned and no other bags are attuned to this subspace, then the same thing happens to the subspace. If the bag is turned inside out, its contents (but not the contents of its attuned subspace) spill forth, unharmed, but the bag must be put right before it can be used again. Breathing creatures inside the bag can survive up to a number of minutes equal to 10 divided by the number of creatures (minimum 1 minute), after which time they begin to suffocate.
Placing a bag of transmission inside an extradimensional space created by a handy haversack, portable hole, or similar item instantly destroys both items and opens a gate to the Astral Plane. The gate originates where the one item was placed inside the other. Any creature within 10 feet of the gate is sucked through it to a random location on the Astral Plane. The gate then closes. The gate is one-way only and can’t be reopened. If the bag was attuned and no other bags are attuned to this subspace, then the subspace is destroyed, its contents scattered in the Astral Plane.
