This conical basket is woven from the bark of various deciduous trees. Attached to it with a bit of dried grapevine is a clay medallion bearing the holy symbol of Yondalla.

Cornucopias of the needful were created to provide Yondalla’s most intrepid followers with aid for their journeys. For as long as you possess the cornucopia, you can withdraw one fruit from it every morning (roll d% each morning to determine the kind of fruit obtained), provided that you are lawful good, neutral good, or lawful neutral. When consumed by such a character (a standard action), this fruit has an effect based on its type, as given in the table.
Each fruit disappears after 24 hours if not eaten. The following morning, the cornucopia again yields one fruit.

Relic Power: If you have established the proper divine connection, a cornucopia of the needful contains 1d4+1 fruits each morning (roll d% and consult the table for each) rather than only one. As before, the cornucopia once again yields 1d4+1 fruits the following morning, regardless of how many were withdrawn and consumed.
To use the relic power, you must worship Yondalla and either sacrifice a 6th-level divine spell slot or have the True Believer feat and at least 11 HD.

Lore: Yondalla wove these conical baskets herself, then gave them to her favored high priests to distribute to the followers who needed them most (Knowledge [religion] DC 20).
