I'm looking over the item creation rules, and I'm not sure how to go about pricing this item...
First of all I'm not sure what "affinity" this would fall under... and how to avoid the extra +50% cost increase for an item not matching the body slot affinity. The item could be anything, a hat, a bracer, etc. Anyway, here's what I would like it to do:
This magical item allows the user to take any object he's holding and place it in the very air around him. With a willed command an object in hand may be "placed" in the air within one-foot of the user's body. The object stays in that position, relative to the subject's body. Thus, if a dagger were place two inches from the user's hand, it would move as the user's hand moves, always staying two inches from his hand. The object may be retrieved by simply touching it once again.
Any number of objects may be "placed" in this fashion along the user's body, as long as their total weight does not exceed 50 lbs. These 50 lb's do not count against the user's encumbrance, and do not affect his movements; the objects simply slide along the body until they return to their original position. If an object is large enough, it provides cover. Since this can be used to place items in easy to reach areas, objects "placed" in easily accessible spots may be retrieved as a free action
