Hello,
I have a Chronicle Sheet that allows me to buy a "Growling Bag of Tricks". The problem is that there seems to be very little info that explains what it can do besides, basically, using it to summon an animal.
I've done a search in the core book with 2 different applications but could find nothing at all. There is an analog to it called the "Gray Bag of Tricks" but it is unclear to me exactly what it can do. I found some info for it on the Net but it doesn't seem as if it can do much of anything. I can see some uses for it but, since combat is apparently not a choice/use I can make of it, why does it cost so much and why is it considered a Wondrous Item?
I can see the animal as being a distraction. I can see it initiating an Attack of Opportunity so other characters can move more freely, I can see it possibly setting off a trap the party can't disable. But that's about all. If it could be used more than twice a day up to 3 times per week, then maybe it would be worth it.
Is there some other uses I am missing or haven't thought of? I welcome and can use anyone's advice in this matter.
TIA,
kk
