Companions

If you thought all a chest could be good for is to store precious items, think again! This one is more inclined to digest anything you give it, but that can actually be turned to your advantage if you need to get rid of something (or someone) that's causing you trouble. In combat, it takes on a variety of roles: it can defend itself, certainly, but it really stands out for its ability to take care of its allies. So even if it can't store your gold, it's still quite valuable all the same.
