| Apr 9, 2018 at 17:13 | comment | added | Wannabe Warlock | This would require you to submerge the ashes in additional water, as the dust must specifically be "thrown into water" -- without meeting that requirement, the item will not trigger. | |

(And, by extension, the old-school identify spell was so difficult to use so that he could, when players got too creative, say, "No, that wacky plan doesn't work.") | |

Cleaning up.

"Oh, you got struck by a fireball back in 1st or 2nd ed? Well, looks like your bead didn't make the saving throw and there goes your water... Too bad. Hope you have enough torches and rations to last your way back out of the dungeon! At least losing all your water put out those fires, though now you may catch a cold or something...." ^^ | |
| Apr 9, 2018 at 14:18 | comment | added | Hey I Can Chan | There we go! A magic item that's been around for nearly 40 years that I've honestly never used. I'll wait a little while, but this sounds like a winner. | |
