Is something in a bag of holding in your possesion for purpose of saves


Rules Questions


okay... if a shrunken spell caster got in you bag of holding and started disintegrating your gear would you use your own save or the items?....and second question what if its a cursed item that causes you to make saves when its "in you possession" ...what if it is in the bag ?


sorry wrote that horribly ...and second question if you have a cursed item that causes you to make saves when its "in you possession" ...what happens if it is in the bag ?


The bag is in your possession there for the items in the bag are in your possession by proxy no different then if they were in a back pack. Cursed items on the other hand work a little differently they are for the most part only in effect when equipped.


for effects coming from outside your bag the things inside would not generally exist(if someone is trying to reach in and take something i could see it being seen as in your possession) .....but if something gets inside the bag how could you shield your items from it from outside the bag ...seems they would be defenseless to attack or just being stolen to me ...as to the curse items needing be equipped or in this case used, yea that just got me out of my current jam i think ......but still left me with a couple questions ....other line that got me is it says beneficial items in it don't give you bonus ...if a stone of good look wouldn't give me a bonus from inside it is it really in my possession ?....Also ..did you give the official ruling out of curiosity ...or more board concensus? or opinion(nothing wrong with that it's just you seem sure of it)


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Time to cut your losses and dunk that sucker in a portable hole


There's no official ruling on this. And there probably won't be because it's not a simple question.
