Inside is a handful (20, but you can choose) of small faintly glowing beans which seem to jiggle and twitch as you hold the bag. If a bean is strongly thrown to the ground it imedietely bounces back and glows stronger. The glow is not sufficient to cast any useful light, though it most defintely easy to see as it zips from surface to surface. The bean continues to bounce randomly from floor, wall, ceiling and all, for roughly an hour (adjust as you like + dont tell players the duration) upon which the magic stops and it lands where ever it falls. The bean now bounces no more than a normal bean. If the bean lands in water or another substance to slow it enough, the bean will stop. Cushioned or other soft objects dont stop it. If stoped the bean fades and will not bounce again.This is one of the mundane but bizare items ive given my players, not amazingly useful, neither very valuble, but its always amuseing to see what the players find to do with them. So far they've thrown one down a pit to check how deep it was, and sneakily threw another into the window of a snobish noble's carridge.Anyone played the PC game baulders gate II, shadows of amn? There was an amuseing cursed item in it that might be interesting.The belt of genderI cant remember it all, but the items rough history was that it was made as a 'gift' for a duke/king to give to his wife. It is simple looking but fashionable belt, and sugested nothing of its purpose, looking like any other. But if put on and buckled, it would fasten and not come off, and instantly reverse the gender of the wearer. The effect would remain untill the belt was removed, which could only be achived by a remove curse spell. I imagine that both the duke and especialy his wife got quite a shock, so would your unlucky player  <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/devious.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":]" title="Devious    :]" data-shortname=":]" /> . just remember that you might want to give something to compensate the cost of the removal spell, or perhaps the cost would be the penalty for being reckless and not finding out what it did first.There you go, two more ideas for you. Let us know what you use and how it goes.</blockquote>
