TOPIC: Greater Alchmist Pouch, Canteen of Quaffing, and Lotus Blossom Bowls interaction

I recently noticed that the Greater Alchemist Pouch healing bonus is not compatible with a healing item ingested by using the Pouch of Tulz . The reason being that the item can only be in one "pouch".

Can the Canteen of Quaffing benefit from the Greater Alchemist Pouch?

Can the Lotus Blossom Bowls benefit from the Greater Alchemist Pouch? If it can, is the bonus 1 point of healing duplicated?

Can the Canteen of Quaffing (or Pouch of Tulz) be used in conjunction with the Lotus Blossom Bowls with a Potion of Distilled Healing to heal two people 10 hp as a free action?

yes and no
If the owner/user of the Lotus Blossom Bowls also has a Greater Alchemist Pouch, the owner/user gets the bonus healing from the Pouch, but the bonus healing from the Pouch is not duplicated on the Bowls' secondary target.

yes

Items like Greater Alchemist Pouch, Canteen of Quaffing, Pouch of Tulz, scroll tubes, etc. are used to store their affected items until use. Therefore one cannot benefit from more than one of their effects because one cannot store an item in more than one container at a time.

In spite of what the name could possibly imply, Lotus Blossom Bowls is not a container. It's just a magical item whose effect triggers on its owner when its owner ingests a healing item AND its owner wills the Bowls' magic to function. Here's a scenario:

1. Characters A and B both have Lotus Blossom Bowls
2. A drinks a healing potion
3. A chooses to activate the Lotus Blossom Bowls to also heal B
4. A has met both requirements for Lotus Blossom Bowls to function (orally consume a healing item and activate the power), therefore the Bowls' power goes off
5. Even though B has their own set of Lotus Blossom Bowls and B has been healed, B did not orally consume a healing item, so B's Bowls cannot function

Does that all make sense?

Can I store my canteen of quaffing in my greater alchemist pouch?

Only if both are inside a Bag of Holding.

You might want to use a different example. There is a Bag Of Holding Token.

I know, I have one.
And if they can somehow get those items inside that token...

I have one, too. I keep it and carry it in hopes one day it becomes playable.

Yes. Thank you for the clarification!
