Black top hat
From Discworld MUD Wiki
A black top hat is a hat from which a player can pull various items (with increasing difficulty), such as a silk handkerchief, a billiard ball, the flags of all nations, a white dove, or a pink rabbit.
To successfully pull an item out of the hat, the player must succeed skill checks in magic.methods.physical.binding, magic.methods.physical.enchanting, magic.methods.mental.charming, and magic.methods.spiritual.conjuring. A minumum bonus of roughly 175 (maybe 170)[research] is needed in all four skills to be able to successfully pull out a hankie. From a bit of research it uses 40 gp per attempt.
