They walk past a llama pen on the way back to the tavern. Barkeep: "Uh... I'll have Gretchen draw you a bath upstairs."

I re-read *greater restoration*, because 5e was never really my game (3.5), and saw one of its uses was explicitly to end one effect reducing your hit point maximum. So I'd amend my earlier and say yeah, that spell works. Since my reading is that it'd only reverse a single crit fail's penalty per casting - not to mention the spell has a smallish material component cost (100 gp diamond) - the weapon wouldn't call it cheating, per se. As the dagger's main thing is that it's a 1d6 instead of 1d4, that's only +1 point of damage per hit on average. 1 in 20 hits backfires, so essentially the cost for 19 extra damage over 19 hits per penalty taken, reversing just the one with a 5th level spell... there's better ways to do 19 damage with a 5th level spell, so probably not really cheating
Correct if I'm misremembering the general benefits of the sapient dagger.I thought the special thing was the extra attack mentioned in the dagger at the top of the comment thread. That would seem very powerful. Your reasoning is sound for the 1d6 dagger though. -
Emphasis on anything. I doubt the inkeeper will take kindly to being paid with coins folded in half.Well that's what you have a coin purse or primary bag of holding for. Assuming the hand retrieving items is not folded (which I would assume is safe to assume based on how bags of holding generally work), it could be used for forging, folding washing, making something really long by reinserting it repeatedly, or sabotaging by folding things that should not be foldable.

I thought the special thing was the extra attack mentioned in the dagger at the top of the comment thread. That would seem very powerful. Your reasoning is sound for the 1d6 dagger though.>\[The sapient dagger\] was a 1d6 but let you attack again, but rolling a 5 or less on the die makes you insane because the dagger insults the user so badly for missing. \[... T\]here was no cap on how often you could attack again. You're right about the extra attack, of course; I was too tired to remember or to go back and read again before commenting. I think we'd need a few things clarified before properly balancing an alternate version: 1) Rolling a 5 or lower on the extra attack's attack roll, or its damage roll? Presumably either way it refers to a raw die value. 2) "No cap on how often you could attack again" - no cap on uses per day, or could you just make additional attacks within one round until you decided to stop (or died)? 3) Does using the dagger's additional attack take your bonus action, or is it a free action? This may be answered by #2, since if it's unlimited per round it must be a free action. 3a) If it's essentially a free action, does it get included with a class's Extra Attack? Which is to say, does it count within the activation of that ability for the purpose of anything that might positively (or negatively) impact all the attacks within a given activation of Extra Attack? (Of course, it wouldn't make sense for it to have to count AS one of the class's Extra Attacks, since it would be categorically worse as it would just invoke the risk with no compensating benefit.)

Magic rope - an animated rope that can be commanded to levitate and tie knots. When placed in any container, pouch or pocket, it immediately gets tangled up and take 1d6 minutes per 5ft of rope to untangle. Other objects in the container also become tangled with the rope, and take 1d6 minutes to remove individually, entangled objects are released immediately when the entire rope is untangled. Magic rope is unable to be cut by any non-magical item.

I have two I will be using in my next campaign: **Ring of attunement**: Provides 1 extra attunement slot. (*Requires attunement*) **Event Staff**: This staff allows the wielder to gain unquestioned entry into any "employees only" areas or zones otherwise off-limits to the public. Anyone (including actual staff or other officials) who sees the wielder in one of these areas will assume they are a known employee or other official who is granted special access to the area. Unfortunately, they will all also view the wielder as the least competent and least trustworthy employee or official with the organization. Any actions taken in the area are likely to be closely watched and highly scrutinized by any observer who would know better.
