Tanglefoot bag

Tanglefoot bags were a means of throwing an alchemical goo to entangle an enemy.
==Description==
A tanglefoot bag was usually round and made of leather and weighed about . It was designed in such a way as to open up when thrown to disperse the thick goo inside. The goo hardened rapidly when it came into contact with air, so if it splashed over a creature, it could effectively glue that being to the ground.
A standard tanglefoot bag contained enough alchemical goo to cover a large creature. If thrown upon a flying creature, it would harden around wings and prevent flight. The goo would not harden underwater; it required contact with air.
The hardened goo quickly became brittle after as little as a dozen seconds or so and cracked apart. Universal solvent quickly dissolved it.
==Crafting==
Skill in alchemy was required to make a tanglefoot bag.

Tanglefoot bags were typically sold in alchemists' shops for around 50 gold pieces.
