How Many Shadows Does it Take to Fill a Bag of Holding?


Rules Questions


Hello, long time reader first time poster. I'm pretty sure this is a rules question, correct me if I'm wrong.

I know they're weightless and I don't think they can occupy a single point at the same time. I guess the real question is: How much space does a shadow take up?

Thanks in advance to any who take the time to respond.


I don't think there is a 'correct' answer. Being Undead they don't breath or need to eat etc.. And the space inside a Bag is more or less unlimited by the interior dimensions of the Bag (it doesn't have any really hence "non-dimensional"). Shadows have no listed weight and are incorporeal so I'd say you are on your own if for some reason you need an actual number, could be a question of how many live things are around to actually be turned into Shadows and stuffed in a Bag.

Now I want to play a necromancer with a bag full of Shadows so I can open the bag and have them all pour out in a terrible stream like Pandora's box.


How the hell are you going to get them all in there?!?

You need to throw in a few ghosts and other incorporeal creatures as well so there's some extra color in the mix. Give it that real "screaming doom" feel when you pull back the flap.

Wow! A Dungeons and Dragons equivalent to how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.
