Item: Everyflowing Tankard

This tankard was made by the few mages harbored by the dwarves. Dwarves in most fantasy realms like to drink, and I admit, I couldn't cut that out of my dwarves, either. They are stout drinkers who can hold quite a few ales before they even start to feel the effects. (If you have a inebriation table, bump dwarves up at least 4 drinks before they start feeling even tipsy.)

Because dwarves are such devote drinkers, the mages of the dwarves felt the need to make some sort of tankard which traveling dwarves could use, since kegs of ale are not practical to carry without a wagon when out in the wilderness or cave exploring.

These tankards can be plain or extremely decorated with scenes of battle and drinking. Most are made of wood and silver, but with a hint of magical glow to them. These tankards will produce one tankard of ale every hour, with the use of a trigger word. The ale will be a replica of the last ale the dwarf poured into the tankard so quality could vary. The trigger word could be anything, depending on who has asked for the tankard to be made or the person who made them, but the person who says the word must be gripping the handle when saying it.

The bonus to some of these tankards, usually the more expensively made, is that they act as a plus one blunt weapon if used in battle. And dwarves have been known to use what ever is at hand in a drunken brawl.
