Glove of Storing
Magic Wondrous Item, (Glove), uncommon (requires attunement)
This skin-tight glove is made of thin, supple leather, and embroidered with tiny arcane symbols. These gloves do not typically come in a matched pair, but occasionally a matched pair is made. Donning a single Glove of Storing is an Action. A Glove of Storing can change its physical appearance to the user's whim, and its size and shape change to fit the attuned user's hand, gaining or losing fingers as appropriate.
While wearing and attuned to a Glove of Storing, you can speak a command word as Bonus Action to cause the glove to become completely invisible; This command word is typically embroidered on the back of the glove. The glove then remains invisible until it is removed or until you speak the command word again. The glove can still be discovered by touch while invisible.
Additionally, you can speak a different command word as a Bonus Action; This word is typically embroidered in a circular fashion on the palm of the glove. When spoken, one item that only you are holding in the gloved hand vanishes into a small extradimensional space; The item must be no longer than 6ft long on any given side, and can weigh no more than 5lbs. The item remains in stasis within the extradimensional space until the command word is spoken again, at which point it reappears within the gloved hand.
While in stasis in this way, no time passes for the item - Stories are told of finding a Glove of Storing on the hand of a long-dead skeleton in a dungeon that has been untouched for a thousand years, only to discover that the item the owner stored before their death was an apple or other fruit, still as perfect as the day it was picked. Additionally, the item's temperature does no change, nor does any light it produces - A lit torch stored within a Glove will still be lit, with the exact same amount of remaining burn duration that it had when it was stored, when it is retrieved.
If two Gloves of Storing are attuned by the same user, they develop a mystic connection, causing both gloves to take up only a single attunement slot. Additionally, they can be turned invisible or revealed at the same time with the same Bonus Action, and may store or call forth their respective items at the same time with the same Bonus Action.
