Handy Saddlebags (3.5e Equipment)

Handy Saddlebags: A saddlebag of this sort appears to be well made, well used, and quite ordinary. It is constructed of finely tanned leather, and the straps have brass hardware and buckles. It has two side pouches, each of which appears large enough to hold about a ten quarts of material. In fact, each is like a bag of holding and can actually hold material of as much as 70 cubic feet in volume or 500 pounds in weight. Even when so filled, the backpack always weighs only 50 pounds.

While such storage is useful enough, the saddlebag has an even greater power in addition. When the wearer reaches into it for a specific item, that item is always on top. Thus, no digging around and fumbling is ever necessary to find what a haversack contains. Retrieving any specific item from a saddlebag is a move action, but it does not provoke the attacks of opportunity that retrieving a stored item usually does.

If a handy saddlebag is placed within a portable hole a rift to the Astral Plane is torn in the space: Bag and hole alike are sucked into the void and forever lost. If a portable hole is placed within a handy saddlebag, it opens a gate to the Astral Plane: The hole, the bag, and any creatures within a 10-foot radius are drawn there, destroying the portable hole and handy saddlebag in the process.
