Magic satchel is a term often used in reference to role-playing video games. It refers to the use of a character's inventory in the game, which can often contain more items (or items of too large a size) than is physically possible for the character to carry without any visible means to hold or transport them.
The concept is so common in fantasy fiction that it is parodied by the character The Luggage in the Discworld series.

Famous quotes containing the word magic:
“Magic is akin to science in that it always has a definite aim intimately associated with human instincts, needs, and pursuits. The magic art is directed towards the attainment of practical aims. Like other arts and crafts, it is also governed by a theory, by a system of principles which dictate the manner in which the act has to be performed in order to be effective.”
—Bronislaw Malinowski (19841942)
