[Urban Magics] Transfer Water Item?

Dragondog · 09-02-2017, 03:04 AM

Is there one or has anyone looked into what kind of item could be enchanted with Transfer Water (Urban Magics p. 34) and what kind of energy cost to create such an item would have?

If you're using it instead of building physical aqueducts, you'd probably enchant things that were difficult to damage and impractical to steal, like large pieces of stonework with blind holes carved into them for the water to disappear into and emerge from.

If you're wanting something portable, for emergency substitute aqueducts, or to control flooding, you'd probably use metal hoops, preferably with identifying marks engraved in them, so that you could scry for them when they were stolen.
