BAG OF HOLDING
The Bag of Holding: This item could be like a common cloth sack about 2 feet by 4 feet in size, to as small as a leather satchel. The bag of holding opens into a extradimensional space: Its inside is larger than its outside dimensions. Regardless of what is put into the bag, it weighs a fixed amount. This weight, and the limits in weight and volume of the bag’s contents, depend on the bag’s type, as shown on the table below.
If the bag is overloaded, or if sharp objects pierce it (from inside or outside), the bag ruptures and is ruined. All contents are lost forever. If living creatures are placed within the larger bag, they can survive for up to 10 minutes, after which time they suffocate.
Retrieving a specific item from a bag of holding is a full action. The size of the bag limits the size object can be place within.
If a bag of holding is placed within a portable hole a rift to the Astral Plane is torn in the space: Bag and hole alike are sucked into the void and forever lost. If a portable hole is placed within a bag of holding, it opens a gate to the Astral Plane: The hole, the bag, and any creatures within a 10-foot radius are drawn there, destroying the portable hole and bag of holding in the process.
Opening a bag of holding and looking within, one is immediately disoriented as the opening is actually a dimensional pocket, a window into another larger space containing items within reach 360 degrees around, hence a bag of holding.
The disorientation comes from the strangeness of orientation between dimensions. Looking down into the bag, one is looking down at items arrayed below the rim of the bag, top looking down. No matter the direction one looks, the relativity of the opening to the dimensional space remains the same. Internal gravity in the direction of the bottom of the bag. Meaning, nothing will "fall" out of the opening.
