Much favoured by travelling mages, the Bag of Holding shrinks whatever is placed inside down to a quarter of its normal size and but 1/64th of its normal weight. Thus a great number of objects can be carried with ease, and they will revert to normal size as soon as they are removed from the bag. As is common for items of this sort, although a bag is the most common form, it is also encountered as a belt pouch, backpack, small chest, and so on.

A useful magic item for any traveller, this chest will never become full, no matter how much material is deposited therein. There is the minor disadvantage that if the chest is filled with too many items, it may take some time to locate the one desired. Any item placed can be affected, subject only to it being able to fit fully into the chest. As is common for items of this sort, although a chest is the most comon form, it is also encountered as a belt pouch, backpack, bag, and so on.

This item is a boon to anyone held captive, as bonds or gateways will fail to contain the holder. Locks will be carelessly left unlocked, inconvenient lanterns will go out, chains will fall free of walls and so on. In addition, guards are all but powerless to restrain the captive, as he never seems to be where he appears to be and the stone lends wings to his heels. Since the stone's powers are invisible, all these effects could be put down to bad luck. The trick, of course is getting it to the captive!

This handy item looks simply like an ordinary robe, although examination will reveal that it has a large number of pockets all over the inside where they may be easily reached by the wearer. Any object placed into one of these pockets is rapidly transformed to a thin plaque, greatly reducing its size and weight to allow easier carrying. Each plaque bears an image of the original object. If the plaque is removed from the pocket, it returns to its former state. This item can be found as other sorts of clothing as well, and the most common alternative is a belt decorated with a series of pouches.

These knee-high, animal hide boots are decorated with the black and white striped pattern like a zebra. Wind Dancers were crafted during a bygone age for use by battle messengers. The tough heels are polished black and add about 0.1 meter to the high of the wearer. There are a set of lace holes that run up the side of each boot, and are used to secure the boot in place.
These boots draw upon the power of the winds to aid the wearer. The most significant power of these boots is the Wind Dance, an elaborate movement of the feet that the wearer must learn through training from a master. It is possible that this dance can be learned independently, but only after considerable practice.
The boots can also serve as a lethal combat weapon, allowing the wearer to dodge blows and deliver a potent kick. When the air is in motion, these boots also bestow the ability to run like the wind and to leap a considerable distance. The wearer is also somewhat resistant to the effects of strong winds, and can command the attention of the primal elements of the air.
