Descriptions
Backpack: A leather bag that can be strapped over the shoulders, requiring no hands. Holds up to 400 coins.
Crowbar: An iron bar, 2–3’ long. Used for prying open doors, chest lids, etc.
Grappling hook: Made of iron, with 3–4 hooks and a ring to attach a rope.
Hammer: Useful for hammering in iron spikes or tapping stonework.
Holy symbol: Divine spell casters must carry a holy symbol of their deity, often in the form of a pendant around the neck. Each deity has their own holy symbol.
Holy water: Water blessed by a holy person, stored in a special vial for use in religious rituals. Holy water inflicts damage on undead monsters. Loses its power if transferred from the blessed vials it is stored in.
Iron spikes: May be used for wedging doors open or shut (see Dungeon Adventuring), as an anchor to attach a rope to, and many other purposes.
Lantern: Shutters allow the light to be hidden and the flame protected. Burns one oil flask every four hours (24 turns). Casts light in a 30’ radius.
Mirror: Useful for looking around corners or for reflecting a gaze attack.
Oil flask: A flask of oil fuels a lantern for four hours (24 turns). Burning oil can also be used as a weapon:
- Throwing: See Weapons & Armor.
- Pools: A flask of oil is sufficient for a 3’ diameter pool. If lit, it burns for 1 turn. Creatures passing through the flames suffer 1d8 damage.
- Immunity: Monsters that have a fire attack (e.g. flaming breath) are not harmed by burning oil.
- Lighting: Oil only causes damage if set on fire (e.g. touched with a burning torch).
Pole, 10’: A 2” thick wooden pole useful for poking and prodding suspicious items in a Dungeon.
Rations, iron: Preserved food for long journeys.
Rations, standard: Fresh, unpreserved food.
Rope: Strong enough to hold the weight of three people and their equipment.
Sack, large: Can hold up to 600 coins.
Sack, small: Can hold up to 200 coins.
Stakes and mallet: A wooden mallet and three 18” long stakes. Valuable when confronting vampires
Thieves’ tools: A set of lock picking tools in a small case.
Tinder box: Flint, steel, and tinder contained in a small box. Used to light fires, including torches. Using a tinder box takes one round. There is a 2-in-6 chance of success per round.
Torch: When lit, casts light in a 30’ radius and burns for 1 hour (6 turns). Torches may also be used in combat (see Weapons & Armor).
Waterskin: A leather container that holds up to 2 pints (1 quart) of liquid.
Wolfsbane: This flowering herb can be used to repel lycanthropes. The creature must be hit with the herb in melee combat.
