Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.

Bottomless Stomach of Holding
When I thought I had seen something... moving, under the rain cover over my companions backpack I thought I was seeing things, but when we arrived in the cove I realized all too clearly that my senses were as sharp as ever. The traveler pulled the rain cover off his back to reveal a groutesque squirming sack with obsidian flesh that shone in the pale light of our flashlights. With some effort The Traveler heaved the creature off of his back and laid it gently on the ground before him."You hungry bud?"Then I saw a large slick tongue poke out of the bag and gingerly touch the ground around it."Yup, we just need that dang demon pirates cursed gemstone, but feel free to gobble up these shinys around ya"The sack rolled and scrambled gobbling up gems and jewelry that were scattered across the cave floor. I stood in stunned silence as I watched my partner cross the room carelessly and pluck the gem from it's holding place."Alright Poke, nuffa that, don't want you gettin too heavy"And in an instant he had scooped the sack up and we were on our way...
The bag is a writhing swelling creature of dark obsidian flesh. It is about the size of a 60 liter camping bag and it clings to it's owners back, but can be covered with a large tarp.
The bag has can hold a number of items against itself with grubby little tendrils that protrude from the bag.
Items within the creature can be accessed only by the owner who then lifts the flesh flap at the top of the bag and digs around for the item of their choice.
The creature will not eat items without its owners permission, but it will request food.
The bag must be fed one large meal (~1000kcals) daily or it becomes sullen and inaccessible. When it is in a bad mood it needs either an item of monetary value of at least $100 or an item of reasonable personal value to someone (GM discretion). If the bag is not fed after three days of being in a bad mood it will begin to eat the items inside.

Runes of Reduction (rework)
Pocket asset deployment.
Eight runes are scratched into the metal surface of these containers on the outside corners, and eight on the inside. When activated, a faint werelight outlines them as the container shrinks and morphs into a metal cigarette case with a runic design in the center. Activating this expands the container back to its full size. From inside, the runes glow faintly for as long as the container is shrunk(this does not provide illumination, but indication)
Mike has leaned in on his new employment and marked a number of the various containers from the ship with runes at the interior eight corners which anchor the inner space of the container in place, while opposing runes on the outer corners allow his imbued magic to spatially compress and transform the outside. The cigarette case form is just a jab at his boss's smoking habit.
No change for rework.
