The Holy Items of Strongwing

Bracelet of Ultimate Charms
XP Value: 1,500 GP Value: 7,500

This appears to be a nicely-crafted bracelet of sturdy silver links. It looks like any other bracelet to which small charms and mementos are attached.

But when a warrior of any kind slides the bracelet around the blade or haft of a weapon, or handle or strap of any other object, and speaks the command word engraved on the bracelet's clasp, the item disappears...and a silver charm matching the item appears on the bracelet.

Thereafter, when the warrior speaks the command word and the name of the item, the item magically appears in the hand on whose wrist the bracelet rested...and the corresponding bracelet charm of its likeness disappears.

This silver bracelet of charms is special, as it can store any four items of the wearer's choice that he can normally carry. The bracelet has no limit to the amount of times an item can be stored and retrieved.

A weapon can be taken out of the bracelet's array. When a character wishes to do this, he takes the bracelet off his wrist and speaks the name of the weapon, and then says the command word...a reversal of the previous procedure.

The bracelet does not magically know its owner. Anyone who steals the bracelet from its owner and discovers what it is can use it and call the previous owner's weapons forth.

This item is best used when the wielder wants to carry a variety of different weapons and/or a shield, and wants to do so secretly. With a single warrior, the weapons carried might be a long bow and quiver (quivers count as part of the weapon they carry arrows for), a bastard sword, a halberd, and a shield. This gives the warrior the ability to call forth the weapon best suited to the task at hand, possibly even a shield for defense.

If an item is broken, the bracelet isn't; the user needs to call forth the bracelet, then separate the broken weapon from it.

Quivers are not magically replenished when they're the size of charms. However many arrows are in the quiver when it becomes a charm are still in it when it becomes a quiver again. Likewise, a broken bow-string stays broken.

The bracelet of ultimate charms may not be used on the same weapon as a set of rings of readiness.
