While an adventurer’s skills, wits, and innate abilities are crucial, the right gear often means the difference between success and failure—or even life and death—in the perilous situations they face. From the trusty sword at their side and the armor that turns a deadly blow, to the rations that sustain them in the wild and the rope that spans a chasm, equipment is the tangible extension of a character’s capabilities.
This chapter delves into the wide array of goods, gear, tools, and services that adventurers might acquire and rely upon. Understanding the available resources, managing currency effectively, and choosing the appropriate equipment for the task at hand are all key aspects of the adventuring life. Whether outfitting a character for their first journey or seeking to upgrade their arsenal after a hard-won treasure, the lists and descriptions herein provide the necessary details.
Within this chapter, you will find:
- An overview of common currency and guidelines for starting wealth.
- Detailed lists of weapons and armor, including their game statistics and special properties.
