Antimagic Susceptibility.

The bed is incapacitated while in the area of an antimagic field. If targeted by dispel magic, the bed must succeed on a Constitution saving throw against the caster’s spell save DC or fall unconscious for 1 minute.

False Appearance.

While the bed remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from a normal bed.

Kidnapper.

While grappling a creature, the bed can move with the target at normal speed, instead of at half speed.

Actions

Smother. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one Medium or smaller creature. Hit: 1 bludgeoning damage. The creature is grappled (escape DC 14). Until this grapple ends, the target is restrained, blinded, and at risk of suffocating, and the bed can’t smother another target. In addition, at the start of each of the target’s turns, the target takes 11 (2d6 + 4) bludgeoning damage. If the target falls unconscious, the bed can immediately cease suffocating the target and forgo the damage to stabilize the target while maintaining the grapple.

Animated Objects

Through the use of powerful magic, otherwise mundane objects, such as a broomstick, kettle, rug, or even a weapon or suit of armor, can be turned into a kind of primitive creature. An animated object is able to move, perceive, and even attack.

Bed of Kidnapping

Transmutation specialists will sometimes create a Bed of Kidnapping for the purposes of gathering subjects for experimentation. Being able to use any bed the creator has access to without arising much suspicion is the most beneficial aspect of the process. Many a soul has sunk into the bed they have slept soundly in for years, only to find themselves knocked unconscious and dragged off silently in the night by that very same bed without any forewarning.

A bigger bed can transport larger or more creatures, but its usefulness may be mitigated if the bed cannot fit through a necessary doorway.
