If you're concerned with your encumbrance limit, why are you not already carrying the object whose whole purpose is to expand your encumbrance limit? Same goes for bags of holding and portable holes. Nobody leaves extradimensional storage space at home. That defeats the point of having extradimensional storage space.This one I can almost buy. Still skeptical that you have so many magic weapons no one has space for a dragon slayer, though.Fails #2. You are so worried about this possible scenario that you're willing to invest 1,000 gp ahead of time in order to avert it? Instead of just, I don't know, putting comprehend languages in your spellbook? It's a 1st-level ritual. You don't even have to prepare it.Fails #3 in truly spectacular fashion. It's a friggin' ring. If you can't find room in your pack for a ring, I don't know what the heck you're keeping in there.You're an 11th-level wizard and you're laying down 1,000 gp in advance to provide yourself with extra rope just in case your party doesn't have enough? Instead of preparing one of levitate, fly, dimension door, or polymorph, each of which is a phenomenally useful spell that can easily justify a spot on your list?I repeat: 11th-level wizard. If your party requires a magic club to deal with skeletons, you fail wizarding forever.Orc warchiefs can't see through illusions. You're changing the scenario here. Which is the point; the niche is so narrow you have to pile all kinds of qualifiers on top to justify it. You want to bring a weapon to the negotiation, and the person you're negotiating with can see through illusions, and they won't let you bring weapons, but they will let you bring a mysterious sapphire radiating magic (wizard shenanigans anybody?), and you have time to prepare for this whole thing and secure the weapon in a safe place...Only if you're phenomenally, stupendously, mind-bogglingly careless. As long as you summon it back and re-cast the spell every 60 days, you're fine.</blockquote>
