Permanent Portable Magnificent Mansion?

[RUMBLETiGER]

I've found some things on this topic while flexing my Google-fu muscles, however nothing I'm satisfied with.

it does not have to be based off of the Mordenkainen's Magnificent Mansion spell, but I do want to pick your collective brains for ideas on how one would make a portable home where one could keep personal items, maintain constant air/comfortable environment, have some semblance of a room with furniture and carry it around without a spell duration ending.

I can just toss in Eternal Wands for things like Unseen Servant, Create Food and Water and so on. I just need comfy and air.

Bonus points for keeping it as cheap as possible.

So you're looking for a Winnabago?

Consider simply getting a wagon, of master worked quality, and fixing it up like a Gypsy caravan. And a provisions chest (MIC) for food, and the wands you mentioned for servants and you're there.

I was hoping for something slightly more portable, perhaps fit in a pocket, something you could take into a dungeon crawl. A Rope Trick that lasts, on steroids. Perhaps more square footage floor space, but while I'm thinking the larger the better, I don't have a particular dimension in mind.

A Portable Hole, with constant air, hopefully slightly bigger than fitting just an armchair surrounded by circular bookshelves (although now that I say that out loud, that'd not be too bad. Like living at the bottom of a very comfy well.)

Is there a spell or magic item that permanently creates clean air within a space? Not a Bottle of Air, since that does not come out of the bottle unless you put it to your mouth. Again, bonus points for it being cheap.

You need the Hat of Opulent Domicile from Hackmaster.

We got a wagon too...it is *4 bigger than a normal wagon though. It isn't finished yet, but it when finished it will have 3 secret exits, emergency break, anchors (in case the breaks fails), lockable murder holes, periscope, a sushi bar, a magic lab, camo suits (for the wagon), portable spike walls (to prevent ppl from climbing up our roof), reinforced walls and wheels, a pair of magical horses and finally a "unconscious driver alarm" in case our driver gets unlucky.



(And a cage for our prisoners, obviously. )


Edit: I forgot the door bell

Got stats for that?

One of those oddities of D&D: You can put one Portable Hole inside another. And it doesn't have to be on the floor.

You could get three others at the bottom, radiating out like spokes from a hub. For a human they'd be cramped quarters, but for a Gnome of Halfling they'd be fine. Even an Elf or Dwarf could manage all right.

And I do recall at least one item that provides a person with air on a constant basis. A Necklace of Adaptation does it for one, and I believe there's a Bottle of Air in one book or another, sort of a Decanter of Endless Water but for a different element.

A Rod of Splendor can create a pavilion tent, complete with food and servants and opulent furnishings, though that function only works once per week.

Whatever form it finally takes, make sure in includes Restful Bedroll quality beds.

In our games we allowed for a lower level of the Magnificent Mansion spell. The effect is the same as the original, but instead of it being an extra dimensional space the Grand Estate spell creates a structure on the same plane as the caster. It's a force construct with an appearance and form specified by the caster, up to the normal volume limits. It's one level lower, and you give up the invisible entrance that only the caster can open, and the unassailable nature of being on another plane.

If you go with the portable hole/bag of holding route, you should check the enveloping pit from the MiC too.

Also, you can build an actual tower somewhere, and have a ring of teleport to tower x/day


(We have a Samurai, who wants to put ranks on cooking, for making sushi...we also hold sushi parties sometimes )

Hmm... You could enchant a blanket with a permanent Mansion portal then just roll it up and strap it to your pack like a bedroll. It just needs to be big enough to form a portal you can walk through. So long as the door is "open" air comes in even though nobody outside sees anything but a blanket on the ground. Also, if it is big enough on the inside if the portal is sealed it will still take a long time to run out of air. Pack a crystal ball and you can monitor what happens outside. No reason you cannot enchant it with some amenities, like a permanent unseen servant in every room. You could even enchant the blanket as a carpet of flying. One party member pilots the lot of you and all your horses and henchpersons to your destination while you lounge around...

Build yourself a nice building in any cheap way you like.

Use permanent shrink item cast by an 11th level for 1500 xp to make this 1/4000th the size. so if you build 400 feet in every direction, you now have just over an inch by inch cube to carry with you and expand at will.

Just make sure nothing in the building is magic, and see if your dm is ok with the idea of a building being one thing (If you dm is open to discussion raise the point a weapon with a wooden handle and a metal blade is one thing, in the same way a home with its furnishings is, so long as everything is in contact its all technically one thing, the spell itself should function ok)

Then make it cloth like and your set to go.

that would be 75000 + a house (Probably 5000 for a really big nice one) so 80000 if you don't mind that most of your furniture is bolted to the floor.
