The Backpack of Teleportation is a unique and enchanted pair of matching backpacks, each crafted from fine leather and adorned with intricate runes that pulse faintly with magical energy. These backpacks are bound together by a powerful spell, linking them across distances and allowing them to function as a single, shared storage space.
Whenever the contents of one backpack are altered - whether an item is added or removed - the two backpacks will automatically swap their contents within a timeframe of up to 24 hours ( 4d6 ). This swapping effect is unpredictable in its exact timing, creating a sense of anticipation and risk for those who rely on its magic. The effect can cross any distance but is sensitive to certain types of interference from powerful anti-magic fields or dimensional rifts, which might delay or temporarily halt the exchange.
While the Backpack of Teleportation offers tremendous convenience for those seeking to share items across great distances, it comes with a significant limitation: only inanimate objects or non-living materials can survive the teleportation process. Any living creature placed inside the backpack will not survive the swap, resulting in tragic and irreversible consequences. As such, travellers are strongly cautioned against using these backpacks for transporting living cargo, and many experienced adventurers mark them with warning symbols to remind themselves and others.
To add a layer of mystery, these backpacks are rumoured to sometimes swap not only their contents but also their exact locations (including its wearer) if they remain empty for too long, suggesting that the magic binding them together has a will of its own. This occasional quirk has sparked tales of adventurers unexpectedly finding themselves in unknown lands, led by their Backpack of Teleportation to new adventures they never intended to pursue.
