Waxillium's Tenacious and Eager Pouches
One can't let go, the other can't wait to be filled.
The Eager pouch is attached to his belt, to allow Wax to quickly throw shards if the need arises. Outwardly, it appears to be made of a hard leather that keeps it's quite rectangular, yet shallow shape, as if to hold something to grab a handful of. The hard leather lid over the top has a rudimentary slam latch, meant to open quickly but close securely. The rim of the flap has a golden yellow band, inscribed with magical symbols.
The Eager container enchantment is a variation upon the "greedy" enchantment that imbues the container with the semi-intelligent desire to "trade" rather than steal. The container won't trade with people or containers it doesn't recognize, which is controlled at first by it's creator, but ownership can be given to others, or it would be an excessively niche enchantment. Those recognized may skew what the container would consider a proper trade. By default, a certain level of greed slips through, as it will take anything it senses is valuable while giving only things it doesn't value - although in truth, that is how it works even with skewed values; the difference is only that those lists change it's sense of value. Wax's is set to trade for the metal shards that fall off the customized Rival's Steel block in the Tenacious Pouch, trading instead the empty space within the Eager Pouch.
DESCRIPTION
The Tenacious pouch is stored beneath Wax's overcoat, on his back. It's a fairly large pouch, and a cursory glance may cause an observer mistake it for a quiver due to the elongated shape; however, it has a flap over the top that's held in place with a Rival's Steel latch. The pouch has a green band along the bottom, inscribed with magical symbols. It looks only partially filled, but weighs as if there's a large metal block inside.

LORE ATTRIBUTES
The Tenacious pouch values its contents, as you'd imagine any container might, but the magical enchantments on this one have given it the ability to prevent items from being entirely taken away. You can still reach in and take out whatever you like, but beings, devices, and most other magical or scientific automation methods will be unable to remove the last portion of any given item due to it's magical programming. Notably, the pouch bonds to an "owner", who can use the right magical signature to allow the pouch to be emptied.The Eager container enchantment is a variation upon the "greedy" enchantment that imbues the container with the semi-intelligent desire to "trade" rather than steal.
