The Vault: Tramping Trunk

Hark, ye merchants and adventurers!

Gaze here upon the mystical article known as the tramping trunk. Crafted by an eccentric gnomish artificer, its sturdy elder-oak construction is adorned by ancient runes, imbuing it with potent travel magic.

The trunk’s name derived from the enchanted boots affixed to its base, granting it autonomous movement. These boots leave distinctive tracks wherever they trod, drawing curious gazes. A faithful companion to explorers, the trunk boasts a spacious interior containing organized compartments to safeguard their treasures and supplies, remaining steadfast even on treacherous terrains.

However, the tramping trunk also has a hidden talent in combat. A skilled adventurer can wield it as a surprising weapon, using the chest to forcefully shove enemies, catching them off guard with bursts of unexpected strength. Its weight and sturdy construction makes these maneuvers potent, leaving adversaries off-balance.
