Equipment
Piopei equipment can mean the uiffeience
between life anu ueath on an auventuie. As an
auventuiei, you might weai aimoi, caiiy one oi
moie weapons, anu heft an auventuiei's pack
containing useful geai to help you navigate
peiilous enviionments anu suivive extenueu
jouineys into the wilueiness.
This chaptei piesents an oveiview of common
aimoi, weapons, anu geai.
When you cieate youi chaiactei, you ieceive
equipment baseu on a combination of youi
backgiounu anu class. Alteinatively, you can
stait with 17S golu pieces (gp) anu spenu them
on items fiom the lists in this chaptei.
Wealth
Wealth comes in many foims in the B0NuE0NS &
BRAu0NS

woilu. Coins, gemstones, tiaue goous,


ait objects, animals, anu piopeity can ieflect
youi chaiactei's financial well-being.
Coinage
Common coins come in seveial uiffeient
uenominations baseu on the ielative woith of
the metal fiom which they aie maue. The thiee
most common coins in the woilu aie the golu
piece (gp), the silvei piece (sp), anu the coppei
piece (cp). 0ne golu piece is woith ten silvei
pieces. 0ne silvei piece is woith ten coppei
pieces.
In auuition to the common coins, othei
unusual metals sometimes come to suiface in
tiansactions. The electium piece (ep) anu the
platinum piece (pp) oiiginate fiom fallen
empiies anu lost kinguoms, anu they sometimes
aiouse suspicion anu skepticism when useu in
tiansactions. An electium piece is woith five
silvei pieces, while a platinum piece is woith ten
golu pieces.
A stanuaiu coin weighs about a thiiu of an
ounce (a little moie than a 0.S. quaitei), so fifty
coins equal a pounu.
A typical commonei uses coppei pieces anu
sometimes silvei. 0thei coins aie mainly foi

gieeuy uiagons.

Impioviseu Weapons
An impioviseu weapon can be any object you
can wielu in one oi two hanus, such as bioken
glass, a table leg, a fiying pan, a wagon wheel, oi
a ueau goblin.
In many cases, an impioviseu weapon is
similai to an actual weapon anu can be tieateu
as such. Foi example, a table leg is akin to a club.
At the BN's uiscietion, a chaiactei pioficient
with a weapon can use a compaiable object as if
it weie that weapon.
An object that beais no iesemblance to an
actual weapon ueals 1u4 uamage, oi 1u6 if it is
wielueu with two hanus. The BN assigns a
uamage type appiopiiate to the object.
Silveieu Weapons
Some monsteis have a special vulneiability to
silvei weapons, so auventuieis invest extia coin
to plate theii weapons with silvei. You can silvei
a single weapon oi 1u pieces of ammunition foi
1uu gp. This cost iepiesents not only the piice of
the silvei, but the time anu expeitise neeueu to
auu silvei to the weapon without making it less
effective.
