This curious little barrel is about the size of a large tankard but has been altered with an enhanced Enlarge/Reduce spell. It has an adjustable leather carrying strap. When the barrel is enlarged it can hold 40 gallons of liquid, or 5 cubic feet of solid material, however, its contents do not increase the weight of the barrel regardless of its size. Enlarging the barrel increases its size tenfold that of its original.
Once per short rest, If you speak the command word of your choosing, this barrel can grow to the size of a normal barrel, and back into its smaller size if it has already been enlarged. The barrel can not be enlarged once it has been enlarged by the command word or be reduced once it has been reduced. Additionally, the command word will only be activated once the lid is placed back onto the barrel and will not react when left open. The barrel's content also grows to match its new size.
If the barrel is overloaded it ruptures and is destroyed, and its contents are scattered on the ground. An item will revert to its original size if removed from the barrel. Breathing creatures that can fit inside the barrel when enlarged will begin to suffocate if it is reduced.
Notes: Utility, Container
