Message Bottle

Article written by Kranar Drogin


A Message Bottle is a simple vial made of dark green grass with a waxed, rune-engraved cork, weighs about two pounds, and has the Magic Spells Ventriloquism in it. The owner of the bottle may speak a ten word message or less into the bottle, and trap the message into the bottle with the cork. Who ever removes the cork next will hear the message spoken in the same way the speaker said the message.

Another version of the Message Bottle was one that Tasslehoff Burrfoot owned. With this, he could write a message onto a piece of paper, then put the message in the bottle and cork it. You then speak the name of the person who is to get it, and throw the bottle into the sea. The bottle will find its way to the name spoken in a couple of days.
