Portal: Intelligent Magic Item, Stats Help

[Ravenv13]

OK, This time this item is purely for my homebrew. I make alot of stuff from my own personal favorite "pop-culture" and "cult-classics" of movies, video games, books and others. And this time, if anyone has a better or more "lore-friendly", version of it, please tell me!

[noob]

why is it based on iron flask?

[Ravenv13]

OK, first off. i was drunk when i made this last night...

Second i think it was because i wanted it to be able to capture a creature and release it into puzzles and traps made by major creation. And also the size of a potato...

The slay all dedication is not what it is called.
I think it should be renamed slay non wielder since it is what it is described as.
And I do not think this computer was particularly wise.(like placing a rocket launcher drone which was the only thing that could harm it in the area close enough for making gating rockets toward it easy)

This is completely true, She wasn't very wise. She was highly intelligent, but i couldn't do more than 20 Int, however I'm dropping Wis to 12 (500 gp). -4 ego, -7,500 gp.

Actually since it was not a computer ai made from zero but one made from an human it would make sense to simulate that with Nybor's Psychic Imprint(which copies a mind within a gem that can be included in a magic item to make it a magic intelligent item) and with that spell there is no int cap provided the subject have the int you want.
It is easy to reach arbitrary intelligence since temporary boosts participate toward the int score to copy so you can easily get int scores as high as 50 on you magical intelligent item.

You wouldnt happen to know where to find alot of stacking Int bonuses, would you?

Cause imma def use that and update stats accordingly after research.

Edited: Well im stumped, without using exploding dice here is what i found:

Robe of Runes: +4 Enhancement bonus to Intelligence.
Calabash of Last Drought: +2 profane bonus to Intelligence
Tome of Clear Thought: Stackable +1 - +5 inherent bonus to Intelligence
Psychonaut Manifestation: +4 alchemical bonus to random Ability Score (Intelligence)

Like i can fluff they spent a ton on +5 tomes of clear thought, but should i really?

Well, the above bonuses add up to +15, or +20 with two tomes. Exploding Dice equals base Intelligence score of 30. (4x6=24+(4x4=16)=30) for a total Intelligence Score of 50.

Side Question: How does this affect the Ego score of the item?

Edited, Again: Can you use 10 ranks in skill twice on same skill for 20 ranks?

[noob]

Add in turning into a vampire and ageing before becoming a vampire.
Or possibly add polymorph any object before your stack(in this case do not be a vampire) if you can find a very high int creature.
Or start by draining yourself of most of your int then use a polymorph any object scroll to become a very high int creature then cure the drain and you nearly have twice the int of the creature you turn into then you can stack other int increasing stuff.
If you consider the magical item to be a construct you can use the option to improve any characteristic of a construct of 2 per 5000 gp to increase its int after creation(less cheesy than the tricks mentioned before).
Taking 10 rank on a skill twice would probably grant no additional benefit over taking it only one time.

Cheesy is still legal. But I'm probably gonna go with the 5000 gp for +2 Int, multiple times.
