Your special item is approved! Yuri will be able to receive an item of both practical and stylish value as a prize in the Jagaiz rings.
One of the Tavimbian champions, a good-natured Sinayg heavy hitter, is a challenging rival to anyone who asks for a match with her. She'll have beaten Yuri at least twice before Yuri finally prevails against her, earning not only surprised cheers from the crowd, but a healthy respect from the Sinayg fighter herself. She'll take Yuri aside after the match and, in line with the traditions of the more experienced champions, offer him his prize from her own possessions.
The prize she offers is a girdle; a belt that, while stylish and certainly practical in keeping one's pants up or robe closed, doesn't seem to have any other special qualities at first glance. The champion will explain, however, that the pockets of the thick girdle are much deeper than they appear. Yuri will discover on his own that she's right - he can store nearly ten times the amount of what it looks like the girdle will carry without any noticeable increase in weight or size. However, the girdle's ability only extends to things which could fit into the pocket's original opening; so no cramming a rickshaw inside, but something like thirty pounds of sea prunes would be fine (although, who'd actually want that?). What's more, when he reaches into a pocket for something, he will always grab the exact item he was looking for, regardless of how deep in the pocket it should have been.
5 AC points have been deducted from Yuri's total count on the tracking spreadsheet.
