Shrink item

Shrink item (originally called Aksa's object and later simply item ) was a common transmutation spell used by arcane casters to shrink an object to tiny size.

Effects
Upon casting the spell, the caster could touch a non-magical, non-living object and shrink it to as little as $1/4,000$ times its original volume and mass. It would remain in this shrunken state for at least five days&mdash;or longer for more powerful casters.

If desired, the caster could chose to change the physical make-up of the item, making it behave as if it were made of cloth.

Tossing a magically shrunken object onto any hard surface would cause it to revert back to its original size and composition, as would speaking a special command word chosen by the caster. This would end the spell.

Even non-solid objects could be shrunken and changed by shrink item, such as a burning campfire, including its flame. If the spellcaster knew the permanency spell, an item could be created that could be shrunk and expanded indefinitely.

Components
Only verbal and somatic components were required to cast this spell.

History
The spell was invented by the Netherese arcanist Aksa the Destroyer in.
