EARTHWORM ROPE
Aura: faint Transmutation CL: 1st Slot: none Weight: see text Price: 400 gp (hemp), 500 (silk), 600 (spider’s silk)
This 50 foot segment of rope is enchanted with regeneration and will grow back any section cut from it. Whenever this rope is cut in two, the longer of the two pieces will re-grow back to the original 50 feet of length over the next hour. The rope retains the original hardness, hit points, weight and other properties of its base form. If the rope is cut in half exactly, or if it is cut into more than two pieces before it has a chance to reform, then both (or all) of the pieces will grow back to the original 50 feet but loose the magic within and become as normal hemp rope.
CONSTRUCTION: Craft Wondrous Item, mending, Cost: hemp 200 gp, silk 250 gp, spider’s silk 300
Now, I'm not satisfied with either the name nor the prices. However, I didn't want something like this to cost an arm and a leg. So any suggestions in those fields are as welcome as general opinions.
Also, if this item, or something just like it, is already out there, please let me know. It wouldn't be the first time one of "my" ideas has been pointed out to me as already being published by Paizo and I just never noticed it. Thanks to all.

There was a troll gut rope that regenerated but I am not sure if that was 3.5 or what...not sure on the price either.
I like it and the price, while high, is one I would pay to be able to have a 10' length of rope to tie up a baddie. Only thing is, I wouldn't ever allow it to double itself. PCs would make it into a money making machine. If the pcs need a bunch of rope they need to chop it in half, wait an hour, chop again, wait, etc....until they get enough for the length they need with only the 50' still retaining it's magical nature.
imo.
I will look into some alternate names for this also and get back to you.

Planarian worms are the most popular worms apparently but there are a ton of others....I would just find a D&D/Pathfinder monster that regenerates and use their name if you don't like "Earthworm". I don't really mind the name although it is a bit evocative of ewws and yucks while climbing despite probably just being like normal rope.

In the OP description it says that if the rope is cut exactly in half then both sections regrow to 50' but then lose the magic.
