I am a hardcore 1st edition person and I am like Frank when it comes to trying to make the fantasy as real as possible(if that makes any sense), but I think poop in the dungeon is probably too literal and a bit much for my tastes.
Deadlord36 wrote:BOWL OF CRAPPING:Originally created by the Archmage Gotasheeut-Nao for adventuring convenience, the Bowl of Crapping is an extremely useful item for any party. It appears as a tiny basin, roughly 1" in diameter. When the command word is spoken, it expands into a chamberpot 2' wide and 2 1/2' high. A second command word causes it to shrink back to 1". Any nonliving organic material that enters the bowl is immediately teleported to the Asstral Plane, and causes the bowl to cast a Remove Stench 10' Radius spell. Attached to the side of the bowl is a wire rack, which can be used to conjure any issue of Dragon magazine (2/day, duration 15 rounds). 30% of bowls have a cushioned seat permanently enchanted with the 2nd level magic-user spell Heat Buttocks.XP Value: 3,000GP Value: Priceless
