Bag of Haggling

Originally developed by Nazur Tscheryn, mage of Chaurille, as a way to acquire reagents at reduced rates (as well as to communicate with the denizens of the night that peddle eyes of newt, nightshade, and other fine things)

A favorite among merchants, this bag (also available as a purse) has been enchanted such that it helps negotiate deals on behalf of the owner. The quality of the negotiation varies from purse to purse, depending on the quality of the caster. The purse allows the owner to speak the language of his or her collocutor to facilitate the negotiation. An average example of this purse also adds a +10 circumstance bonus to all skill checks that involve negotiating prices (Diplomacy, Bluff, etc.).

Faint abjuration; caster level 3rd; tongues, eagle’s splendor, Craft Wondrous Item; 7,500 gold.

Serpentward Purse

Generally decorated with thread-of-gold depicting a dragon or wyrm, this purse is similar to the magically warded wailing purse, with the difference that any touching or opening of it by anyone except the wearer results in a ghostly viper rearing up from the purse and striking the would-be purloiner.

When the snake strikes, the thief must succeed at a DC 14 reflex save. If they fail, they are engulfed in a shimmering amber field of force and immobilized until released, either at your command or when 1d4 days + one day per caster level have elapsed. The effect is identical to those of the spell sepia snake sigil.

Faint abjuration; Caster level 5th; sepia snake sigil, Craft Wondrous Item; Price 7,500 gold; Weight 1/2 lb.

Wailing Purse

This purse has been enchanted such that attempts to pick it from it’s owner result in a loud alarm. The alarm varies from purse to purse, but is generally a shouted “thief! thief!” in the language of the enchanter.

Weak abjuration; caster level 1st, alarm, Craft Wonderous Item; 1,000 gold

Alternate versions are powered by magic mouths, allowing a higher range of sounds and responses, such as singing, biting, or saying things like “You don’t really need that, do you? Can we afford that?”. These are considerably more expensive, in the 6,000 gold range.
