a thin silver whistle strung through a piece of twine

- called a “crate whistle”

- pinworn, no pockets, functional

- summons a crate to follow you around and hold 10 items of any size

- lores said to be unlikely to affect the crate

- information from 2006 crate whistle: pinworn, weighs less than 2, summons “a battered antique faewood crate” to hold things for you, holds 10 items of any size or weight, will replace a disk, but can be called at any time, can be closed or flipped, random idle scripts, holds items after logging off (unsure on period of time it will wait), does not disintegrate upon death, attunes to first user

Summons a crate with legs to follow you around. It holds stuff like a disk, and has a lot of semi-cute (the first time you see them) actions. They get pretty annoying in short order, though. There's a few of them around.

I was actually a little surprised they "invented" this item. Fans of Pratchett's Discworld will recognize "the Luggage".

Ahh - there's a degree of functionality about the thing. Excellent. Useful for hunting I think. Wouldn't use it otherwise I suspect.

Thanks. Very useful information everyone.

Also hangs around if you die unlike the Disk.
