A lot of the childrens'/young adult fantasy fiction I've read features a stuffed crocodile a part of the Wizard's lair set dressing...
This item is a roughly man-sized crocodile taxidermy, with two chains attached to the dorsal surface, one above each pair of legs.
When hung from the ceiling of a magic-user's laboratory, workshop, and the like, it reduces the time and cost associated with magical research; spell transcriptions; potion brewing; and scroll scribing by 10%.
If a combination of the Speak With Animals and Speak With Dead spells are used, the stuffed crocodile will turn out to be quite the chatty gossip.

Cool! I like the possibility of gleaning knowledge for spells and potions from a stuffed crocodile.
ReplyDeleteFYI: The crocodile/alligator became associated as signage announcing apothecaries, and, later, in cabinets of curiosities, as the Europeans were making new biological and pharmaceutical discoveries during the Ages of Exploration and Sail.
Cool, I'm glad to know that!
