Forager Vasculum

The Forager Vasculum is a scripted container that aids in inventory management of foraged items and was first sold at The Witch's Garden shop. Foraged items added to the vasculum do not increase the item count of a character's inventory; a vasculum filled with foraged items will only take up 1 spot. The vasculum, however, cannot be used to hold healing herbs. If you attempt to put them into the vasculum, you will receive the following message:

Unfortunately, the vasculum is intended for non-magical foraged items.

If the vasculum displays multiple rows for a single type, the items were foraged from rooms with different settings. Add affected items to an Alchemy jar, then remove from the jar. This strips the location settings tied to foraged items (also making them ineligible for bounties). Once again place the items into the vasculum and they should recombine as one.

The Forager Vasculum

Introduced at the Ebon Gate Festival in 5122, the vasculum is designed to hold 30 types of a foraged item. They are allowed to stack. It must remain some thin metal tube with a lid.

It has the following actions: close, look (see the stored items), put (add an item), open, pinch, pluck (remove a stored item), and whisper (move the items to make them easier to pluck)

Customizations: Base Paint - in mottled grey tones Surface Design - an elongated branch occupied by a trio of crows
