My scepter has a wisecracking skull on top wearing a jester’s hat. He provides inappropriate comic relief during my adventures, but he’s a minor artifact that boosts my CON, WIS, and INT by +2 while I’m attuned to him and lets me cast any cantrip at will, so I think I’ll keep him.

Hay nada mas,
Oh si' my way!
Has anyone had any experience with scepters they bought off of Amazon? I thought I got a sweet deal, but every time I transmogrify something it becomes a duck. It doesn't matter what, as it always becomes a duck.

I have about 50 ducks of various sizes. I there something I'm missing or did I get a bad deal?

Addendum: The seller "xXWhi$$MastaXx no longer exists! I payed 20 good souls for this!

Uhh, ummm, the scepter was enchanted with the Contingency spell that activates when used against it's user and teleports them and the scepter to a demi-plane


We, uh, this- this seems like a good spot to end the session, guys, yeah?

Your goofy skull buddy is great lol! But it is saying some pretty inappropriate stuff. Whoa! Might want to tell them that making jokes about the Chinese and/or pee-pee filled sodas is making the other adventurers uncomfortable

Look he’s not even from this plane of existence, you can’t expect him to immediately know what’s ok and what crosses the line. He’s from Mystara, he doesn’t know any better.

oh great so he's not just a floating wisecracking skull, he's also an illegal immigrant? You know we have skulls here looking for work that can't find anything because of these drat Mystarans coming here and taking the jobs? I watched this documentary on my scrying orb all about the mystaran problem that really opened my eyes, you gotta know the truth man

lol look at the dumbass who has never read a newspaper or a history book. Mystara is a pariah plane. Lawful good Tieflings are murdered when they arrive, that’s just one example of insane Mystaran brutality. My scepter is a refugee from a hostile government (the principalities of glantri) that refused to accept his homosexuality. I know he’s ignorant, but it’s not his fault if he slips and calls an elf the K-word*.

Would love a duck sceptre. Will trade for a sceptre of embarrassment and self doubt that has a minor backfire problem. You could probably fix it, I can't do that sort of stuff.

I put my scepter into a bag of holding and when I went to retrieve it...it came out different.
What? No. It LOOKS the same. It just...feels different.
No it still WORKS, I said it FEELS different.
What do you mean HOW? I don't know...it's LIGHTER or something.
Yes. Lighter. Like...it feels like it's hollow or something.
No I didn't check how can I check if it's hollow? It's a magic scepter it doesn't open. I'm not going to saw it in half, what am I supposed to do?
No I DON'T know if it 'floats now' let me speak to your Magical Manager.
