D&D 3E/3.5 3.5 item that lets you ride a gelatinous cube?

[Mookie1171]

I remember some 3.5 DND item that lets its user ride inside a gelatinous cube or similar monster by using some force field but I can't remember what book it was in. I think it was associated with the underdark in some way. Anyone remember which book its in or know a way I can find out? I'm not completely sure of the name of the magic item.

I believe that it was called “amulet of the cube” or something like that and was in the arms and equipment guide.

There is actually an item for that? Wow...I never cease to be surprised by this game.

And when charging that cube into battle at 30'/round with a rebel yell it is called Gleaming the Cube.

not even official stuff beyond the MM gives the cube much respect...

[IMaGel]http://nwn.bioware.com/underdark/images/creature_gelcube.jpg[/IMaGel]Just when you thought that unsightly pasta stains had no champion, and you were comfortable in a world where mayonnaise didn't fight back, comes a creature made entirely of the stuff that bursts out of mashed caterpillars. These are the rock stars of downtrodden gravy stains and greasy splotches everywhere: a large, intelligent cube of glop that can chase you down and digest you before you've accepted you're being beaten up by an overachieving dessert.

But the item has a curse that goes along with it: it changes your character's name to Q*bert.
