Mist Tent: A mist tent is contained in a small glass flask. Removing the stopper causes a stream of white mist to pour from the flask. One round later, the mist shapes itself into the form of a 10'x 12' tent with a single, open flap in the front. The stopper must be replaced in the flask as soon as the mist tent takes shape, or the tent will dissipate as described below.

The mist tent has the density of a cloud when unoccupied. When one or more characters enter the mist tent, the flap can be closed; from the inside, the flap has the density of canvas. From the inside, the walls and ceiling of the mist tent appear as opaque white mist, and the floor is transparent. Despite its appearance, the entire mist tent has the density of canvas once the flap is closed. When the flap is closed, the following effects occur:

The mist tent and all occupants and items inside become invisible to all creatures outside the tent. A detect invisibility spell cast by a creature outside the tent reveals the mist tent.

The mist tent rises 10 feet off the ground; it continues to hover in place as long as the flap remains closed. The transparent floor allows occupants of the tent to clearly see the surrounding area. The floor of the mist tent can support 1,000 pounds without rupturing.

If the flap is opened, the mist tent 's walls, floor, and ceiling instantly become visible to outsiders, appearing as a thin, white mist. Additionally, the mist tent slowly descends, landing gently on the ground. If the stopper is removed from the flask, the tent dissipates, returning to the flask in a stream of white mist; if the bottle is not stoppered immediately, the mist will pour from the flask to form the mist tent again.

The mist tent is unharmed by all types of fire, but does not offer such protection to its occupants. The tent is susceptible to other forms of damage. It provides no more protection to its occupants than a normal canvas tent.

The mist tent has AC 10. If the mist tent sustains 10 points of damage, it dissipates in a shower of light and is permanently negated. If this occurs while the mist tent is hovering, all occupants plummet to the ground. If the mist tent sustains less than 10 points of damage, it can be returned to its flask, then re-released; all damage will be repaired.
