Unreasonable items.
I was just thinking about Portable holes... Would it be reasonable to have an entire cloak as a portable hole?
If it had a hood, does that mean they're immune to attacks from behind, as every attack just swings through space in the hole? If they sat behind the hole and filled it with explosives would they be protected from the majority of the blast? If every piece of armor had a hole wrapped around it, how reasonable is it that they're practically immune to most attacks other than disarms?
Any other item that could be used for something else?This text is yellow.Spoiler
TUBATAR!
Why? Because tuba is the awesomeness.

Re: Unreasonable items.
And then somebody throws a Bag of Holding at you.
SpoilerDM: "Sunder the wall?! WT**** kind of tactics are these!?"
Me: The kind that armies have been using for millennia.
DM: They didn't do it with swords!
Me: Which makes us so much cooler.
Player: Where are the babau in relation to everyone else?
Me: They're right behind you. Vesil is covered in Loki's blood. That is their location in relation to you.
Player: I was just wondering about a fireball.

Re: Unreasonable items.
dont you have to unfold and layout a portable hole?
I dont think this would work"Trouble rather the tiger in his lair than the DM amongst his books for to you your characters and their equipment are mighty and enduring, but to him they are but toys of the moment to be overturned by the flicking of a finger." - Raven's Cry

Re: Unreasonable items.
It wouldn't work since the portable hole has to be flat to work, and even if it did work, the first attack would probably ruin the portable hole once it hit the edge.
If you wanted to represent the idea, your best bet would be to just buy a Starmantle Cloak from the BoED.

Re: Unreasonable items.
Sure, if you've got a shield six feet across. But like I said, the first time someone hits it is likely to destroy it. You'd be better off just buying a Riverine tower shield for a fifth of the cost.

Unreasonable? I present the Orc Quaduple Axe. It has made an appearance on this board before.

Funny, I always figured I'd be killed by a paladin.
So, what you're saying is we rolled a 1 on our credit check?

Like someone said above, the real problem is that single bag of holding would screw up your day big time.

Re: Unreasonable items.
Are there stats for that thing? I've got a were shark character I'm working on and that looks like the perfect weapon. Originally Posted by Quirinus_Obsidian

Do his wrists rotate 360 degrees? If not, it's not the perfect weapon. Originally Posted by starwoof

I'm thinking he'd probably wield it like a windmill shuriken. Except for, y'know, an axe. Originally Posted by Grumman
