Enlarge item? Enlarge object?

May 27, 2008 17:05:51 Is there a spell that enlarges a magical item? Shrink item is only for non-magical items and Enlarge Person the item returns to normal size when it leaves their possession- I'm not sure if there is something else I can mix with a permanency spell to make magic items (weapons specifically) into a large size without affecting the other (magical) properties.

The alternative is to just sell everything and enchant a large item, but I think that's kind of boring and would rather use found items.

If someone has such a solution could you include cost for having the spells cast or whatnot? Thanks!

Since it is capable of affecting magical items, maybe make it one or two levels higher than shrink item. You'll need the DM's approval, of course.

As a side note, I like having my spellcasting PCs research new and unique spells. It's a method of character customization you don't see very often anymore. Then again, I never saw PCs (other than mine) doing it that much in previous editions, either.

In my campaign magic items just resize themselves to the weilder, to prevent it from being unfair on the halfling and so that the Axe of Butt-Kicking that the giant lord was weilding is useful to the players. All of my players are happy with this arrangement.

My character uses a masterwork large silver morningstar. We found a mace which is unidentified as of yet, but switching from my large morningstar doesn't make sense if the bonuses don't stack up to the base of the larger weapon. It kind of made me realize that unless I find this type of spell my character probably won't be able to use any of the cool magic items.

To make it worse my party is splitting treasure equally (coins and gems) and then handing out magic items to whoever they seem to suit. I share weapon types with the dwarf and mage so I don't see ever having a valid claim to the best magic items without such a spell... and I don't want to be using hand-me-down medium weapons.
