Cosby's Consortium of Comical and Convenient Contrivances


Located in the Bowery, Cosby's Consortium sells magic items of a different sort, mostly items to make life easier or more entertaining. Many items are made to order (The Teddy Bears take 2 days to enchant) but several are in stock and are usually enchanted versions of Enoch’s toys although Cosby worked for Enoch the Toymaker for a time and can make them himself. He sees it as an amiable business arrangement. His magic items are his own creations and anyone wanting something else will usually be directed to Vlad’s.

It typically has Richard the Pryor behind the counter, and Cosby usually spends part of the day there while in the Bowery. The shop is also kept by the kobold sorcerer apprentice J-Rom, Alistar Land, his New Follower, Jeeves, a former Big Red One (6th level fighter, 3 levels copper dragaon bloodline) CR10.

Items for Sale

Popular with Adventurers are the Ready to Eat Meals (Cosby Dinners). The Shrink Wrapper wraps the food item and makes it smaller to be portable. Meals are served on a per plate basis. When the package is opened the plate grows to full size and weight and is at the right temperature. Meals are much better for morale and popular items like Calzones, and meals from other Selid-din establishments are available at extra cost. Each plate covers one meal. His ready to eat meals are varied in price, but they come with a plate of food, hot (or Cold)  and ready to eat when unshrunk. Cost of the meal + shrinking is the sale price.

Cosby built a magic item called the Shrink Wrapper. It shrinks items placed on top and wraps them, per Shrink Item spells. It allows the item to remain shrunk indefinitely, until triggered, then it goes full size.  In essence, it creates one-shot shrunk items. The shrink item spell will last indefinitely, allowing the item to remain small but only can be unshrunk once before the spell ends.  This is for the use of the store. Based on Shrink item ( 3x5x2000)= 30,000 GP (15,000 GP to Create, 1200 XP). The Shrink Wrapper is not for sale, but is part of the store counter, large bulky counter like a wrapping station. It is primarily used on the Ready to Eat Meals. Also allows large items purchased to be carried home easily, and the store will shrink other items for a fee.

Cosby also sells shrunk campfires (Cosby’s Convienent Campfires) which remain shrunk and automatically light when unshrunk.
