Every adventurer needs stuff. Whether it be weapons and armor for waging war, horses and wagons for cross-country traveling, food and shelter for surviving in the wilderness, or specialized gear for pulling off whatever feats your character aspires to, there is one place to find everything your character might need: right here.
Wealth
Wealth in the Elysium RPG is measured in Sovereigns (𝕤), which are also commonly called "crowns", with both terms stemming from the common practice of minting coins with popular current and past rulers or heroes on one face.
Starting characters begin the game with 500𝕤 unless they have purchased the Wealth trump.

Sized Weapons
Armor
Sometimes the only thing between you and the business end of a nasty pig-sticker is a few scant pieces of leather and metal.
| Name | Bonus | Notes | Hindrance | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Padded | 1 | 0 | 50𝕤 | |
| Leather | 2 | 0 | 150𝕤 | |
| Reinforced Leather | 3 | 0 | 250𝕤 | |
| Half-Chain | 4 | 0 | 600𝕤 | |
| Breastplate | 5 | 0 | 800𝕤 | |
| Chain Mail | 6 | 1 | 1100𝕤 | |
| Scale Mail | 7 | 2 | 1,600𝕤 | |
| Half Plate | 8 | 3 | 3,500𝕤 | |
| Field Plate | 9 | 4 | 8,000𝕤 |
A combatant wearing armor with a score greater than 5 (being anything above breastplate) will take a minus to his or her Dodge skill in the Defense Roll. A character wearing chain mail will take a −1, scale will take a −2 and so on. The GM might also require that such an armored character would take this penalty to physical skill checks such as Climb, Swim, Athletics, Gymnastics, Sneak, and perhaps even Spot (if wearing a fully-enclosed helm).
Characters that use shields don't actually receive any sort of armor bonus. Instead, they use the shield for parrying during their Defense Roll.

Mounts and Animals
| Name | Cost | |
|---|---|---|

| Warhorse | 2,000𝕤 | |

- Riding Horse – Horses serve as excellent transportation and beasts of burden. However, most horses do not fare well in the chaos of combat. Riding horses require their riders to make Personality + Animal Control or Agility + Ride checks (2 AP) against a DL of 12 for each round of combat to keep the horse from throwing its rider and running away. If the check is failed, the rider takes the difference as damage.
- Warhorse – Warhorses are trained in the arts of warfare and do not require their riders to make checks to avoid being throw simply because they are in combat.
- Donkey – Donkeys and mules are perfect beasts for hauling heavy gear or awkward tools, or for pulling heavy objects in a harness. Donkeys make poor mounts for combat purposes and will always throw their rider and run away if confronted with hostile forces.
- Blackbeak – Blackbeaks are stout, bipedal mounts with short vestigial wings and powerful legs, which they use to jump large distances and propel themselves furiously over land. They derive their name from their sharp beaks which are capable of easily rending flesh. Blackbeaks make poor beasts of burden, since their frame is not suited for much cargo, but make great mounts in combat thanks to their aggressive natures and the ease with which they are domesticated. For more information on these creatures, see the Blackbeak entry.
- Bullhound – Bullhounds are the preferred mounts of Goblyn warriors. Bullhounds also make great guard dogs.
