At 10th Level, you have become a devout follower of your patron. Your patron offers you a choice; you may either construct an Altar to be used by yourself and other Pact-Keepers or become a Vessel of your patron. Details for both options are below.

• Altar: You are sought out by 1d6 + 10 1st Level Pact-Keepers who follow your same patron. They will build the Altar in a valid location over the course of 25 days. Once completed, you will lead rituals at this Altar and these Pact-Keepers will follow your commands, as long as they do not violate your patron. Once up and running, you may perform ritual sacrifices at the Altar, with each ritual being considered a standard Downtime activity. Your patron blesses you with a certain benefit depending on the type of sacrifice performed:
• Blood Sacrifice: You may decrease your Maximum HP by 10 for 24 hours. For the same amount of time, your Maximum Spell Points are increased by 5.
• Human Sacrifice: If you ritualistically kill a sentient creature, you gain 6d6 Gold.
• Sacrificial Tithe: For every 1 Gold of value sacrificed, you may fully Heal yourself or a nearby target.
• Vessel: You may occasionally become a Vessel for your patron. As an Action, you may begin to channel your patron. For the next minute, you take -5 Damage (you take at least 1 Damage), you deal +5 Damage, and you provide +5 Healing. Additionally, you cannot die during this time. You can still be reduced to 0 HP, but you will remain alive and continue to fight. If you are still at 0 HP when the minute ends, you will then die as normal. Once you have used this ability, you must finish 5 Long Rests before you may use it again.

[MECHANICS] Dungeon! - Henchmen & Hirelings

Henchmen & Hirelings

Unlike Player Characters, Henchmen and Hirelings have certain restrictions. For one, they require daily pay. The Pay Stat in their Stat Block lists their rate of daily pay.

Also, Henchmen and Hirelings must roll Morale. Unlike Monsters, Henchmen and Hirelings roll Morale in more specific situations. Whenever a Henchman, Hireling, or Player Character is killed, every nearby Henchmen and Hireling must roll Morale. Additionally, they will roll Morale each day they go without pay. For each consecutive day without pay, they gain a cumulative -1 to their Morale Save. These cumulative -1's are reset once they are paid in full for their unpaid days of work. Finally, Henchmen and Hirelings may roll Morale at the GM's discretion each time a Player Character attempts to mistreat them. For example, a Guard who is forced by his employer to walk into a Trap will most certainly roll Morale before deciding if they will actually obey. Whenever a Henchman or Hireling fails a Morale Save, they instantly quit employment and, if in danger, do everything they can to flee and defend themselves.

Many Henchmen and Hirelings also have Ranks. Ranks are effectively Levels for Henchmen and Hirelings. Rank often impacts the Stats of Henchmen and Hirelings, including their Pay. Any Henchmen or Hireling that has a Rank starts at a minimum of Rank 1 and can reach a maximum of Rank 5. To reach their next Rank, a Henchman or Hireling must be paid a Bonus. This Bonus should be a single large sum equal to 10 times their current Pay. At the GM's discretion, however, Henchmen and Hirelings may already be higher than Rank 1 when first employed by the Player Characters.

Henchmen

Henchmen are combat-oriented. They can be hired as muscle for clearing out a dungeon, but some types of Henchmen have preferred jobs listed as Special mechanics. Also, Henchman can wield any Weapon and can wear Armor based on what type of Henchman they are. All Henchman may use Shields. Henchman will start out with the standard equipment listed in their Stat Block unless the GM alters their Stat Block. For example, this means a Guard you hire would start out with Heavy Armor and a Spear, but no Shield. The GM may alter this and/or you may give better equipment to that Guard, improving their Stats.

Hirelings

Hirelings are not combat-oriented. In fact, they will do everything in their power to avoid combat, fleeing completely if they must. They can be hired for specific tasks and as skilled laborers. Hirelings tend to have specific preferences, listed as Special mechanics. Finally, most Hirelings lack HP, AC, AB, and Saves. This is because these values are not relevant. If a Hireling who lacks one of these Stats takes 1 or more Damage, they die instantly.

[MECHANICS] Dungeon! - Beasts of Burden, Mounts, and Vehicles

Beasts of Burden, Mounts, and Vehicles

This post is a bit of a hodgepodge of mechanics that go hand-in-hand with both Wilderness Travel and Encumbrance. If you aren't using either of those mechanics, this post probably won't be of much use to you.

The most important thing to note with this post is that the mechanics listed below are pretty simple and rely on common sense. Yes, Mules have HP and a CR, but they aren't intended for warfare. Yes, Vehicles have HP, but obviously they would not be Healed by a potion. Try to keep these things in mind when using the mechanics below and when creating new Beasts of Burden, Mounts, and Vehicles.

Beasts of Burden

• Donkey - 1 CR - - - Encumbrance: 15 - - - Riders: 1 - - - Cost: Low

Mounts

• Camel - 3 CR - - - Encumbrance: 15 - - - Riders: 1 or 2 - - - Cost: High
• HP: 15
• AC: 13
• AB: +3
• Damage: 1d6 + 3
• Special: Domesticated (This creature will always try to flee before it fights, only fighting as a last resort.); Mount (This creature grants its rider 3 extra Movement Points per day.); Desert-Dweller (This creature does not have its movement impeded by sand and it cannot become dehydrated or Exhausted due to dry or hot environments.)
• Save: 14
• Skills: N/A

• HP: 15
• AC: 13

• Damage: 1d6 + 3
• Special: Domesticated (This creature will always try to flee before it fights, only fighting as a last resort.); Mount (This creature grants its rider 3 extra Movement Points per day.)
• Save: 14
• Skills: N/A
• War Horse - 5 CR - - - Encumbrance: 15 - - - Riders: 1 or 2 - - - Cost: High
• HP: 30
• AC: 15
• AB: +5
• Damage: 1d6 + 5, 1 Free Action Attack each Turn
• Special: Mount (This creature grants its rider 3 extra Movement Points per day.); Tough (This creature has 5 additional HP. This is already accounted for in its Stats.)
• Save: 13
• Skills: N/A

Mount Equipment

Over the course of 10 minutes, you may equip a willing Mount with 1 piece Mount Equipment you own. A Mount may only have 1 piece of Mount Equipment active at any given time. All Mount Equipment may only be placed on creatures with the Mount Ability. 

• Riding Saddle: The wearer provides its rider with a further 2 additional Movement Points per day.
• Saddlebags: The wearer has an additional +5 Encumbrance. Saddlebags may also be placed on Beasts of Burden, unlike other Mount Equipment.
• Light Mount Armor: The wearer has +1 AC and +5 Maximum HP, but it provides its rider with 1 less extra Movement Point.
• Medium Mount Armor: The wearer has +2 AC and +10 Maximum HP, but it provides its rider with 2 less extra Movement Points.
• Heavy Mount Armor: The wearer has +3 AC and +15 Maximum HP, but it doesn't provide its rider with extra Movement Points.

Vehicles

All Vehicles are considered objects. Land Vehicles must be pulled by at least 1 Beast of Burden or Mount and all Vehicles must be steered/driven by at least 1 Character or NPC.

All Vehicles have an AC of 15 and a number of Hit Points equal to their Encumbrance. Vehicles automatically succeed on all Saving Throws against Spells, Maneuvers, etc. When a Vehicle reaches 0 HP, it is destroyed, and all of its contents are dropped to the ground.

Finally, Vehicles may be repaired at a rate of 1 HP per 1 hour of time spent repairing, but they cannot be Healed by magic, potions, etc. At the end of each hour, the worker may roll a Strength Skill Check to attempt to increase the HP repaired. On a success, the Vehicle regains 5 HP instead of only 1 HP.

Additionally, Vehicles grant Riders extra Movement Points, similar to Mounts. However, Vehicles are more limited as to where they can travel. For example, a Pull-Cart is meant for land travel, not sea travel. By the same token, Ships are meant for sea travel, not land travel. Simply use common sense. Obviously, a Ship cannot be used to travel through a grassland hex that lacks a deep, wide river.

Land Vehicles

• Hand-Cart - - - Encumbrance: 10 - - - Riders: None - - - Cost: Low
• Pull-Cart - - - Encumbrance: 25 - - - Riders: 1 to 4 - - - Cost: Moderate
• Special: Buggy (If pulled by a Beast of Burden, +1 Movement Points. If pulled by a Mount, +2 Movement Points.)
• Wagon - - - Encumbrance: 50 - - - Riders: 1 to 6 - - - Cost: High
• Special: Buggy (If pulled by a Beast of Burden, +1 Movement Points. If pulled by a Mount, +2 Movement Points.)

Sea Vehicles

Note: Ships often list more than 1 Rider as a baseline. This is because most ships require a minimum number of crew members to function. For example, a Medium Ship needs at least 3 Riders, otherwise it will be dead in the water.

• Raft - - - Encumbrance: 10 - - - Riders: 1 - - - Cost: Low
• Special: Dinghy (This Vehicle only uses 2 Movement Point on Water Hexes, unless there is stormy weather, at which point Water Hexes cost 4 MP.)
• Rowboat - - - Encumbrance: 25 - - - Riders: 1 to 3 - - - Cost: Moderate
• Special: Dinghy (This Vehicle only uses 2 Movement Point on Water Hexes, unless there is stormy weather, at which point Water Hexes cost 4 MP.)
• Ship (Small) - - - Encumbrance: 100 - - - Riders: 1 to 10 - - - Cost: Extreme, at least 2,500 GP
• Special: Sailboat (This Vehicle only uses 1 Movement Point on Water Hexes, unless there is stormy weather, at which point Water Hexes cost 3 MP.)
• Ship (Medium) - - - Encumbrance: 250 - - - Riders: 3 to 30 - - - Cost: Extreme, at least 10,000 GP
• Special: Sailboat (This Vehicle only uses 1 Movement Point on Water Hexes, unless there is stormy weather, at which point Water Hexes cost 3 MP.)

[MECHANICS] Dungeon! - Simple Encumbrance

Thoughts on Encumbrance

Encumbrance is an oddly hot topic of debate in TTRPGs. Inventory management is clearly a core part of TTRPG design, but many players, especially in modern TTRPGs, simply ignore it completely. Why? Well, the most popular TTRPG system has a horribly designed afterthought of an Encumbrance System.

Many OSR systems have their own, simple, and easy to use Encumbrance Systems. Even in those systems, however, there is sometimes a stigma to actually tracking Encumbrance. In all honesty, I believe this comes from a place of ignorance, not laziness.

Regardless of what system you play, you should try to track Encumbrance one way or another. It adds a fun challenge to the game, and it allows for more realism. Hopefully, one or both of those reasons is enough for you.

Encumbrance in Dungeon!

Encumbrance is an additional mechanic in Dungeon! For the reasons mentioned above, including Encumbrance as a required mechanic tends to scare people off. However, adding Encumbrance is as simple as grabbing a blank sheet of lined paper.

On this sheet of lined paper, make a numbered list. The length of this list should equal (10 + the Max roll of your Class's HP die). For example, a Mage's Encumbrance List would be 16 lines long while a Fighter's would be 20 lines long. Finally, place each of your Items into the list. Each individual Item takes up 1 line. The only exceptions to this are Items that are used up when used, such as Ammo, Potions, Torches, Rations, etc. Single-use Items like this may be placed together in “stacks” of 20 onto a single line. Finally, Coins may be placed together in "stacks" of 1000.

And that's it!

At the end of the day, the mechanic of Encumbrance is only as complicated as you let yourself think it is. With the right system and the right mindset, Encumbrance is incredibly easy to use and enjoy.

[MECHANICS] Dungeon! - Traps

Traps and the OSR

Before I talk about how Traps are intended to be used in Dungeon!, I should first touch on the overall purpose of Traps in OSR TTRPGs.

Especially today in 5e, the purpose of Traps has been completely missed by both the game designers and many DMs. For whatever reason, Traps in many modern TTRPG systems are designed for the sole purpose of being "gotcha" mechanics that serve to deplete resources. While this may be effective for the bad guys, it is in no way fun or enjoyable to the players. Also, it punishes the players for Exploration... One of the core pillars of TTRPG game design. Seems kind of silly, doesn't it?

Enter the OSR. Many people in the OSR community seem to truly understand the purpose of Traps; Traps should serve as a puzzle or problem to solve. This puzzle or problem may require resources to solve, but it shouldn't take those resources away as a "gotcha," instead allowing the players to actively choose how to handle the Trap in a way that may cost them specific resources. GMs should design Traps to be somewhat obvious, but they guard something tempting or important to the players, such as a chest of treasure or the way into a dungeon. Traps shouldn't be haphazardly placed everywhere, only in places where it both makes sense and serves a purpose.

If you still aren't sold, I recommend checking out the videos below.

• A Treatise on Traps by GFC'S DND
• D&D Traps, When and how to use them by Bandit's Keep
• Stop Hiding Traps by Questing Beast

Traps in Dungeon!

With the purpose of Traps established, I can now delve into their use in Dungeon! Traps should be used sparingly and intelligently, as detailed above. Use Traps as puzzles, NOT as "gotcha" moments.

If you are used to other systems, you may be inclined to hide Traps behind Skill Checks. DO NOT DO THIS! Why? Because as the GM it is your job to tell the players what their characters see, hear, smell, etc. Their senses of a room shouldn't be up to an arbitrary roll. Just tell them what is in the room, what it smells like, what they hear, etc. They may then take that information and make decisions. Simple.

Now, you may ask, do I just tell them, "Hey, there's a Trap in this room." You should! Just do it in a subtle way. For example, in a room with a one-way dart Trap you may describe one of the walls as "dotted with holes" while the one directly across is "chipped and pock marked." The players will then realize what you said is a clear indication of a Trap. If they don't... Well, they will learn very quickly.

Next, be open to creative solutions to Traps. Not every Trap will have a logical and easy way to be disarmed, so more creative solutions may be required. Also, even simple Traps can be solved creatively. The dart room mentioned above could potentially be solved by a Fighter with a metal Shield just carefully walking by the trap, hiding behind their Shield. Remember, Traps are puzzles, not necessarily resource taxes. This Shield solution is very simple and costs the party little to nothing. And that's okay! It's a simple and smart solution to a simple problem. That should be rewarded.

Finally, some example Traps are below. Each Trap includes a description, options for how the Trap is triggered and mechanics for how the Trap "Attacks." Additionally, each Trap lists 4 possible locations where you may find such a Trap. Feel free to roll 1d4 on these lists to place these Traps throughout your dungeons.

• Alarm Trap: A trap that makes noise or otherwise gives away the position of those who trigger it.
• Possible Triggers: A weighted pressure plate, a tripwire, lack of Stealth, etc.
• Effect: If triggered, the Trap alerts nearby Monsters. The GM rolls the Encounter Die, but 3 or less counts as a 1.
• Locations: 1; A room full of bells attached to tripwires via pulleys. 2; A silent room where the floor is covered with calm but deep water. 3; A room where a large guard dog sleeps. 4; A hallway full of hanging strings of glass bottles.

• Possible Triggers: A weighted pressure plate, a tripwire, etc.
• Effect: If triggered, Targets within a 10-foot Radius of the trigger must roll a Save. If they fail, they take 5d6 Damage. If they succeed, they take half as much Damage.
• Locations: 1; A room containing a golden idol on a weighted pressure plate. 2; A hallway with obvious scuffs along the walls and a hole in the ceiling. 3; A crumbling cliffside path where small chunks of different colored rocks are scattered. 4; A long hallway with an obvious round boulder visible in a high place.
• Chute: A trap that uses gravity to displace its targets to a lower location, such as the lower level of a dungeon.
• Possible Triggers: A trapdoor, a suspicious lever, etc.
• Effect: If triggered, the target must roll a Save. If they fail, they fall down the chute, being spat out wherever the chute leads. It is near-impossible to climb up a chute. If they succeed, they simply sidestep this Trap.
• Locations: 1; A hallway with missing floor tiles, where each missing tile shows a different chute. 2; A room where the entire floor is a massive trapdoor. A chest sits in the middle of the room. 3; A room with many trap doors built into the floor. Some are open, some closed. Multiple levers can be seen on the walls, some pulled, some not. 4; A room where the only way out is a visible Chute.
• Dart Trap: A trap that fires sharp darts at targets.
• Possible Triggers: A weighted pressure plate, a tripwire, etc.
• Effect: If triggered, the GM rolls 1d20 + 10 versus the target's AC. On a hit, the target takes 3d6 Damage.
• Locations: 1; A hallway with holes in the walls. 2; A wall where many faces are chiseled, each with open mouths. 3; A chest with a suspiciously large keyhole. 4; A large statue with holes for eyes.

• Gas Trap (Poison): A trap that floods an area with poisonous gas.
• Possible Triggers: A weighted pressure plate, a suspicious lever, etc.
• Effect: If triggered, each target within the hallway, room, etc. must roll a Save. If they fail, they gain the Affliction Poisoned 6. If they succeed, they gain the Affliction Poisoned 3.

• Pit Trap: A trap that drops the target into a pit, likely filled with spikes.
• Possible Triggers: A trapdoor, a suspicious lever, etc.
• Effect: If triggered, the target must roll a Save. If they fail, they fall into the pit. If the pit is spiked or bladed in some way, they also take 3d6 Damage. If they succeed, they simply sidestep this Trap.
• Locations: 1; A hallway with missing floor tiles, where each missing tile shows a different pit. 2; A room where the entire floor is a massive trapdoor. A chest sits in the middle of the room. 3; A room with many trap doors built into the floor. Some are open, some closed. Multiple levers can be seen on the walls, some pulled, some not. 4; A forest clearing with an obvious mound of leaves that seem out of place.
• Portcullis/Wall: A trap that drops a metal gate between or onto targets. Its primary purpose is separating targets from each other.
• Possible Triggers: A weighted pressure plate, a tripwire, etc.
• Effect: If triggered, the target must roll a Save. If they fail, they are pinned beneath the portcullis/wall, taking 3d6 Damage. If they succeed, they simply sidestep this Trap, choosing which side they end up on.
• (If the party's goal is to lift the portcullis/wall, roll 2d4 x 100. This is the weight of the portcullis/wall in pounds. If the party realistically has enough manpower to lift this weight, they may do so [no roll is required]. If they do not have the manpower, they may choose to lift the weight [no roll required], but they each gain Exhaustion)
• Locations: 1; An archway where a rusted portcullis clearly looms above. 2; A large room with a divot down the center and a crack/slit directly above it. 3; A hallway where a secret door seems to be hidden behind a lever. 4; A room full of treasure, but it only has one suspiciously unguarded way in.
• Swinging Blades/Logs: A trap that uses gravity to swing weaponry at its targets.
• Possible Triggers: A weighted pressure plate, a tripwire, etc.
• Effect: If triggered, the GM rolls 1d20 + 10 versus the target's AC. On a hit, the target takes 2d6 Damage.
• Locations: 1; A hallway with a suspiciously high ceiling. 2; A slightly ajar door that leads into a small side-room. 3; A hallway that has a seemingly pointless intersection. 4; short, claustrophobic hallway with many slits in the walls.

• Grove: The Nature Spirits will find a valid nearby location to protect as a druidic Grove. The Grove will be a 5-mile radius (or single hex) of wilderness that you and the Nature Spirits will seek to protect. The Grove takes no time to build, but it does not generate income. Instead, it generates 1d4 random Consumable Items per day. Additionally, there is almost always something to do in the Grove, such as a monster to slay, poachers to chase off, or treasure to hunt for.
• Primal Power: The Nature Spirits find a valid nearby location to empower as a place of Primal Power. This place of Primal Power will be a small area about 100 feet in diameter, such as a ring of standing stones, a massive oak tree, etc. This place takes no time to build, but it does not generate income. Instead, it allows you to swap out any and all known Spells on a Long Rest, and you will regain 1 Spell Point per hour while within the place of Primal Power. Finally, you and your allies may successfully rest within this place in half the normal time due to its accommodations.

Skills: Agility (2-in-6), Strength (2-in-6) --- (+1 Skill Pip at Druid Levels 6th, 8th, and 10th)

Dungeon! - Magic Items

Magic Items

Magic Items in Dungeon! are handled however the GM wishes to. If your setting is low magic, simply don't give out Magic Items often. If your setting is high magic, go nuts.

Be warned, however. Many new GMs will often flood their games with Magic Items and then complain when it breaks the game. Don't be that guy. Just use your brain and only give Magic Items if it actually makes sense to. The same thing goes for designing Magic Items. If you think its overpowered, it probably is. That doesn't mean you can't put it in your game, but know that if you make your bed you must lie in it. Don't be the GM who puts an OP Magic Item into their game only to take it away later.

All that being said, the Magic Items I have put into Dungeon! were all designed to be balanced in some way. Use these Magic Items as guidelines when creating your own if you wish to avoid making Magic Items that might break your game.

Consumable Magic Items

These types of Magic Items may only be used once. This includes things like Potions, Scrolls, etc. All Consumable Magic Items require an Action to use (aside from Ammo and Rope), just like normal Consumable Items.

• +1, +2, and +3 Ammo: Must be used alongside Ranged Weapons. Provides a bonus on Attack and Damage rolls equal to the "+" listed for Ranged Attacks they are used for. Unlike normal Ammo, however, magical Ammo is destroyed completely after use.
• Antidote: The user loses all stages of the Poisoned Affliction they have when quaffed.
• Greater Firebomb: Must be thrown akin to an Attack but uses an Action. On a hit, deals 1d10 + 10 Fire Damage to the intended target as well as any targets within Close Range of the initial target.
• Greater Healing Potion: Heals 3d6 + 10 HP when quaffed.
• Greater Holy Water: Must be thrown akin to an Attack but uses an Action. On a hit, deals 1d12 + 10 Radiant Damage to the intended target as well as any targets within Close Range of the initial target. Any target that is not an unholy creature is not affected.
• Greater Poison: Can be coated on a Weapon or quaffed as an Action. If coated on a Weapon, the next target to take Damage from that Weapon must roll a Save. If they fail, they gain the Affliction Poisoned 4. If they succeed, they gain the Affliction Poisoned 2. If quaffed, the target gains the Affliction Poisoned 10.
• Potion of Cure Disease: The user loses all Diseases (or sicknesses) they have when quaffed.
• Potion of Haste: The user Casts the Spell Haste on themselves when quaffed.
• Potion of Magic: Restores 1d4 Spell Points when quaffed.

• Potion of Resilience: The user gains +3 AC and +3 on Saves for 1 minute when quaffed.
• Potion of Rest: The user loses Exhaustion when quaffed.
• Regenerative Rope: This may be used just like a normal Rope. Every 2d6 days, however, it regrows 10 feet in length. It always has a maximum possible length of 50 feet. If the last 10 feet are used up, this Magic Item is destroyed.
• Scroll of Blink: The user may Cast the Spell Blink.
• Scroll of Fireball: The user may Cast the Spell Fireball.
• Scroll of Revive: The user may Cast the Spell Revive.
• Tome of Detect: One person may read this book over the course of one full day of Downtime. The reader then learns the Spell Detect and this book is destroyed.

• Tome (Any Spell): One person may read this book over the course of one full day of Downtime. The reader then learns the imbued Spell and this book is destroyed.

Magical Accessories

These types of Magic Items are primarily small objects, such as Rings, Boots, Helmets, Cloaks, etc. Use logic when wearing these Magic Items. For example, a magical Scarf could easily be worn with a magical Necklace, but two magical Helmets couldn't be worn at once. Finally, all of the options below may be mixed and matched to your desires. Be careful, as more than 3 options may be too powerful.

• Amulet of Immunity: The wearer is Immune to the Enfeebled and Poisoned Afflictions.
• Amulet of [Skill] (+1, +2, or +3): Increases the effective Skill Pips the wearer has in the specified Skill by the "+" listed.
• Bag of Holding: A satchel that grants the carrier 100 additional Encumbrance. Regardless of how full it is, the bag is always lightweight and small. 
• Note: Creatures cannot be placed within the Bag, nor does putting two Bags together rip apart space-time or some random crap. Not gonna happen.
• Boots of Leaping: The wearer may leap up to 10 feet vertically and 20 feet horizontally.

• Helm of Heroism: The wearer may Cast the Spell Heroism at will.
• Helm of Telepathy: The wearer may telepathically communicate with others within Medium Range at will.
• Medal of Courage: The wearer is Immune to the Afraid and Stunned Afflictions.
• Ring of Spell Absorption: When targeted by a Spell, the wearer may use this Ring to absorb the Spell and all of its effects completely. However, the Ring is then destroyed.
• Ring of Elemental Resistance: The GM chooses one Elemental Damage type when this Ring is obtained. The wearer takes half as much Damage of this specific type.
• Ring of Healing: The wearer regains 1 additional HP from Short Rests and 1d4 additional HP from Long Rests.
• Ring of Power: The wearer's Maximum Spell Points are increased by 1. If the Ring is removed, the additional Spell Point is lost until the Ring is worn again.
• Ring of Protection: Provides a +1 bonus to AC and Saves while worn.
• Scarf of Tangling: The wearer may use an Action to command this Scarf to Grapple a target within Short Range. The target gets a Save as normal.
• Scribe's Spectacles: The wearer can read and understand all forms of writing.

Magical Armor

These Magic Items are simply Armor or Shields that have additional magical effects. Just like normal Armor, two sets of Magical Armor cannot logically be worn at the same time. Finally, all of the options below may be mixed and matched to your desires. Be careful, as more than 3 options may be too powerful.

• +1, +2, and +3 Armors and Shield: Provides a bonus to AC and Saves equal to the "+" listed while worn.
• Armor of Toughness: Armor that increases the wearer's Maximum HP by 10. If the Armor is removed, the additional HP is lost until the Armor is donned again.
• Aquatic Armor: Armor that allows the wearer to swim as easily as they walk. They do not sink in water regardless of weight, unless they choose to.
• Climber's Armor: Armor that allows the wearer to climb as easily as they walk. They also take half as much Damage when they take Damage due to falling.
• Elemental Resistance: The GM chooses one Elemental Damage type when this Armor is obtained. The wearer takes half as much Damage of this specific type.
• Mithril or Silvered: Damage rolls against the wearer have Disadvantage.
• Sentinel Shield: A Shield that floats around and follows its wielder, allowing the wielder to benefit from the Shield without actually using a hand to hold onto it.

Magical Weapons

These Magic Items are simply Weapons that have additional magical effects. Otherwise, they act just like normal Weapons. Finally, all of the options below may be mixed and matched to your desires. Be careful, as more than 3 options may be too powerful.

• +1, +2, and +3 Weapons: Provides a bonus on Attack and Damage rolls equal to the "+" listed when used to Attack.
• +3 vs. Animals: Provides a +3 bonus on Attack and Damage rolls when used to Attack Animals.
• +3 vs. Casters: Provides a +3 bonus on Attack and Damage rolls when used to Attack humanoid Spellcasters.

• Chilling: Deals an additional 1d4 Ice Damage on a hit.
• Detecting: The wielder may Cast the Spell Detect at will.
• Draining: The wielder regains 1 HP each time this Weapon deals Damage to a target.
• Mithril or Silvered: Damage rolls with this Weapon have Advantage.
• Radiant: The wielder may Cast the Spell Light at will.
• Reaching: The Weapon gains the Reach attribute, but retains its normal Damage.
• Sentient: This Weapon somehow contains the spirit, soul, or mind of another being. It may either empathetically, telepathically, or verbally communicate with its wielder, and it has its own ideas and goals. The GM should treat the sentient being as an NPC, having it make its own decisions. It cannot move itself or force itself to Attack, but it will most certainly attempt to sway its wielder to do these things for it. As part of this, the GM should choose a specific goal or purpose for this being. This could be something like "Slay Dragons" or "Fight for Good." The GM should then roll a special Ego Stat for this Weapon, as detailed below.
• Ego: When rolling Ego for a Weapon, the GM rolls 1d3 (1d6 halved, rounded up). The value rolled is the Weapon's Ego. If the wielder has been using the Weapon in a way that aides the being in its goal, the Weapon has a bonus on Attack and Damage rolls equal to its Ego Stat. If the wielder ever goes against the being's goal, this bonus is lost and instead becomes a penalty of the same magnitude (i.e., A Weapon with Ego: 3 would provide a -3 penalty on Attack and Damage rolls if the Wielder is acting against the being's goal). This penalty will persist until the wielder aids the being again.

Staves, Wands, and Other Casting Foci

These Magic Items are specifically designed to allow their wielders to Cast Spells they normally couldn't. Each Magic Item of this type has a set number total of uses, rolled by the GM when the Item is acquired. Once it has been all used up, the Item loses its magical power and becomes mundane.

• +1, +2, and +3 Foci: Provides a bonus on Attack and Damage rolls equal to the "+" listed when used for the Attack and Damage rolls of Spells. Also, the other Foci below may also have this effect added onto them.
• Crytal Focus: The user may Cast the Spell Ward. 1d4 uses.
• Druidic Totem: The user may Cast the Spell Polymorph. 1d4 uses.
• Holy Symbol: The user may Cast the Spell Bless. 1d4 uses.
• Occult Object: The user may Cast the Spell Bane. 1d4 uses.
