Rerednaw 07-24-07, 12:46 PM	I was wondering if there was a standard (DMG or PHB) item or spell that maintains fresh foods or raw ingredients in LG. Yes this is an odd request, but I was curious. Cheers.

KarmaInferno 07-24-07, 01:15 PM	My dwarf has a BeerHammer(TM). It's a masterwork adamantine maul in the form of a heavy armored and insulated keg of beer, attached to a 4 foot hollow metal handle. There's a spigot on the pommel for easy access to the beer. Chill Metal works great before pouring out a nice drought of the good stuff. :D 2nd Edition D&D used to have the Jar of Preservation, which did exactly what you asked about, preserving foodstuffs and even small animals in stasis indefinately. Dunno if it got converted in the MIC. -karma

Cause after smashing an orc with your BeerHammer(TM) and trying to enjoy a sip, wouldn't it explode out the spigot into your face? :D

Love dwarves :P
Rawveggie 07-24-07, 03:31 PM	How about a Bag of Holding or a Handy Haversack? Does food spoil in an extra-dimensional space? A Bag of Holding specifically states that a living creature will suffocate after 10 minutes. Doesn't that mean there isn't a lot of air in there? Isn't air the usual way bacteria and bugs get to food to make it bad? -Raw
Jay_Ibero_911 07-24-07, 03:53 PM	There's always Create Food & Water for clerics...who needs to keep anything fresh when you just make new food every day?

Just because ye kanna drink as fas' as a dwarf kin, dinna mean thar be a problem. Yuir jus jealous, methinks, ya pansy." :D Hm. I just acquired an Everfull Mug. Maybe i can install it inside the keg? -karma

Arvagor 07-24-07, 05:30 PM	Well I suppose I could create custom items...as long as I can get the Triad to sign off on it. :) No need; there's already just such an item in Races of the Dragon. It's called Angriz's chest; costs 1000gp, weighs 50lbs., about 4 ft. on a side, and keeps dead flesh preserved indefinitely. Uses gentle repose during construction...
Timlagor 07-29-07, 03:54 PM	I have access to a box that produces food daily (up to 15 people or 5 horses iirc)
_metz_ 07-30-07, 02:10 AM	Blue Ice Mugs and kegs work. With any luck, they will be in a mod out there sometime in the next year or so...
