Bag of Mystery

Wondrous Item, unknown rarity

This enigmatic bag is a curious twist on the more commonly known Bag of Holding. Slightly larger than its mundane counterpart, the Bag of Mystery is adorned with faintly glowing runes that shift and shimmer, hinting at the chaotic magic within. A gift from an unknown trickster deity, the bag holds a strange assortment of powerful and mundane items, waiting to be discovered.

Daily Draw:

At the start of each day, the user can speak the command phrase (e.g., “Reveal thy secret”) and reach into the bag to retrieve a random item. Roll on the Bag of Mystery d20 table to determine the item drawn.

The item remains until dawn of the next day, at which point it vanishes in a harmless flash of magical light.
If the item is destroyed, lost, or discarded, it disappears immediately and cannot be retrieved again until the next draw.

Storage:

The bag also functions as a Bag of Holding, capable of storing up to 500 pounds, not exceeding a volume of 64 cubic feet. However, it cannot be used to store living creatures or items drawn from its daily roll.
