Help me safely store away my corpse


Advice

Sczarni

I have been building an blaster psychic that makes extensive use of the Skinsend spell, essentially using it all day, every day.

And while being a construct gives me great immunities, I'm not sure on what to do with my body once I'm a walking, talking skin.

I have thought about using use magic device to cast shrink item on my corpse and then storing it safely in my handy haversack, but it seems unpractical at best.

Leaving my body at the door of every dungeon seems too dangerous, unlesss I bring a locked coffin of sorts. Do you have any ideas for spells/magic items that may help solve this problem?


isnt this what gentle repose is for?

Wouldn't work: your corpse isn't dead (yet), it's at 0 HP. And so it's still a creature and not an object.

Understandably, there aren't many ways of making a creature impervious. That coffin might just be your best bet I fear.


I would get this :

NECKLACE OF ADAPTATION PRICE
9,000 GP
AURA moderate transmutation CL 7th WEIGHT 1 lb.
This necklace is a heavy chain with a platinum medallion. The
magic of the necklace wraps the wearer in a shell of fresh air,
making him immune to all harmful vapors and gases (such as
cloudkill and stinking cloud effects, as well as inhaled poisons)
and allowing him to breathe, even underwater or in a vacuum.

Then stuff the body into a bag of holding.

Done.

well a corpse is a deceased body. So in this case we would be talking about a body...and not a corpse.

why does it need preservation if its not deceased yet? or are we just talking about protecting it so noone messes with it?

My assessment of my body being a corpse was wrong; turns out skinsend keeps your body alive but at 0 hit points... weirdly enough.

yea... thats why i was thinking of preserving a corpse... but a lot of people think og 0hp as being dead....so its an easy mistake to make
