Origins
Edit
The Wishing Table and The Gold-Ass form a trio of stories by the Brothers Grimm. The third, The Cudgel in the Sack, details the third son's gift from his apprenticeship: a sack that contains a cudgel which will violently beat anyone that has wronged the third son when he opens the sack. He tricks a greedy innkeeper to search the bag and suffer until he returns everything he stole from the three brothers.
EffectsEdit
When opened, the cudgel swings around and violently clubs anyone nearby. Will chase the victim relentlessly until knocked out; targets first the person who has been most harmful to the owner. It can be de-activated by saying "cudgel in the sack".
