Not Used: Item: Dragon-Nip
I had this idea last night watching our two cats wrestling over a pile of catnip, until the bigger one just dropped down on top of the pile and started sweeping it all underneath himself; maybe I've had too much D&D lately (is that possible?), but all I could think of was a dragon sweeping up the coins in his treasure horde lol.
The item itself would be one-use, with a bag or box icon (or something similar), and be tremendously heavy and expensive. Ostensibly, it would be made from items of high intrinsic value (gold coins as filler and such-like), as well as an alchemical substance that acts as a euphoric for dragons. When used, the item could drop one of those "giant pile o' treasure" placables, which would immediately cause all dragons in the area to have to make a will save or run over to the pile of Dragon-Nip. Dragons would still be able to attack PCs that come within arm's reach, but would otherwise be rooted to the spot (although maybe they could get a new save during any round which they're attacked?).

Re: Not Used: Item: Dragon-Nip
Interesting. Most Dragons are fairly intelligent and value their lives above treasure. As long as the save DC was a pretty easy one, I like the idea... but if the save is easy... the item probably wont see much use.
Still... while it would be funny as hell to watch dragons being succked over to a pile of treasure... part of me has trouble buying that any dragon is that dumb.... I guess if maybe the dragon wasn't in combat... but even then, it should be smart enough to be suspicious of a treasure pile popping in out of nowhere.
What I could buy, is such an item being "distracting" to Dragons and perhaps lowering their attacks and/or will saves against other things.
