[QUOTE="Mort, post: 7525903, member: 762"] Has anyone actually seen a portable hole /bag of holding interact and the consequences that resulted? In years of playing, I never have! Now the following possibility has come up and I'm asking the collective resource of ENWorld about the following scenario. Is it cool, fun, mean, stupid, too cheesy, etc.? My players have managed to anger a powerful noble, who has access to pretty impressive resources (magic and mundane). He's tried few plots to get rid of them already : 1. Bribe them to go away; 2. Send thugs after them; 3. Put them into the path of some serious monsters ; 4. Frame them for a crime to get the Watch after them. Next, he's thinking of something a bit more exotic: Namely, he has access to both a bag of holding and a portable hole, and knows the dangers of the two interacting. His plan is to put the bag into the path of the PCs - (expecting them to collect it) and then drape the hole in a place where they will mistake it for a portal (he knows the PCs have found and used similar looking portals in the past) - thereby hopefully getting them out of his hair. This is a ridiculously expensive solution but the noble is wealthy enough and mad enough (in both senses of the word) to do it. Thoughts, comments, suggestions? [/QUOTE]
