Travellers Tents

This is both a building and a magic item. While not a permanent extradimensional space like the The Camp Staff it is handy for people looking to set up camp quickly. The traveller's tent sets itself up and compacts small. It stores furniture and objects in an extradimensional space and makes them available once the tent is set up. It is comprised of a box that appears to contain canvas and poles, but when the command word is spoken it folds out into a three-room tent with nine-foot ceilings. It does this in less than a minute.   The first room is about 10 feet square and contains a vestibule for placing gear and disrobing. It contains two benches and a chest.   The second room is a small dining area with a cast iron stove, a table, and two benches. This room is about twenty feet square. It also contains a pantry cabinet of 2 foot by 4 foot by 8 feet tall.   The last room is also twenty feet square and contains soft rugs, mattresses, and bedding for eight people if clustered tightly together. It contains eight chests of about 4 feet by 1.5 by 1.5 feet.   When the tent is put up anything not in the chests that wasn't part of the tent falls out of the tent. Those items within remain their until next extracted. This is especially useful in sandstorms as the accumulated sand is just expelled and doesn't need to be manually cleaned out. It will not however close up if a sentient being is inside the tent. Animals and insects are expelled. How it knows the difference between a bear and an orc is unknown.   Several variations exist with different colors of canvas, shapes of the rooms being rounded instead of square as well as ones with more rooms and ammenities. It is stated that one of the rulers of Limi-Xou has a tent with 100 rooms. Though this seems to be unlikely or would be a series of tents set up togeather more likely.
