Wealth in Immortal Legacy is measured in ''sovereigns'' (𝕀), 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. Sovereigns are cast from at least some amount of gold, silver, or another precious metal.

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 βˆ’1, scale will take a βˆ’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).

Latest revision as of 20:16, 14 March 2022

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 Immortal Legacy is measured in sovereigns (𝕀), 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. Sovereigns are cast from at least some amount of gold, silver, or another precious metal.

Everyday items and services may cost less than a sovereign; there are 100 cents (Β’) in a sovereign, also commonly called "coppers," or "pennies."

Starting characters begin the game with 500𝕀 unless they have purchased the Wealth trump.

Clothing

Sometimes it's not who you know, but how you dress. Here are some examples of outfits available for your character to purchase.

Name Cost
Royal Clothes 500𝕀
Noble Court Clothes 300𝕀
Cold Weather Clothes 100𝕀
Woodsman's Clothes 50𝕀
Peasant Clothes 5𝕀
Wanderer's Clothes 25𝕀
Fashionable Clothes 400𝕀

Weapons

Peace means having a bigger stick than the other guy. Detailed herein are all of the bigger sticks.

Action Points
This details the number of Action Points necessary to use the weapon.
Parry
The bonus the weapon grants the character on a Parry Roll when the weapon is used to parry an attack.
Harm
The amount of damage the weapon does on its own, which is factored into the Damage Roll. The weapons listed in this chapter are intended to be wielded by creatures of Size 0. Weapons made for smaller creatures do less damage; weapons made for larger creatures do more damage. See Appendix I: Size & Weighted Damage regarding differences between weapons for creatures of different Sizes.
Type
The type of Harm the weapon inflicts. Either S for slashing, B for bludgeoning, or P for piercing. Certain spells, items, and armor protect better against certain types of Harm. If a weapon lists two types of Harm, they are in order of usual usage. A character must state which type of Harm he intends to perform during an attack (for instance, slash or thrust with his longsword); otherwise, the first is assumed.
Notes
Any relevant notes about the weapon.
Cost
The standard market price in sovereigns for a sturdy, forged iron copy of the weapon.
Mus
The minimum required Muscle to wield the weapon effectively in combat. A character may use a weapon that is too heavy for him, but for each point of Muscle below this threshold, he takes a βˆ’1 penalty to Attack and Parry rolls. If you're trying to wield a weapon made for a smaller creature, your Muscle score is considered 5 higher for each point of Size difference. if you're trying to wield a weapon made for a larger creature, it's considered 5 lower for each point of Size difference.

Weapons marked with a dagger (†) are small or light and easy to hide, granting a +2 bonus on Thievery/Disguise checks to conceal them.

Weapons marked with a double-dagger (‑) are two-handed weapons. They must be held with both hands. Two handed weapons give a character a βˆ’4 penalty to Thievery/Disguise checks to conceal them, but a +2 bonus against being Disarmed.

Weapons marked with an asterisk (*) are designed to be used one-handed, but may be wielded with both hands for increased stability. When these weapons are used two-handed, their Muscle requirement is reduced by one and they receive a +2 bonus against being Disarmed.

Ranged weapons list an effective range. For every 10 feet past that, an attacker takes a βˆ’1 to the Attack Roll.

  • Heavy shield/hoplon – The most basic shield, β€Šlarge enough to cover nearly from the shoulders to the knees. Often dish-shaped, made of wood and covered with a layer of bronze or similar metal. Its weight makes it particularly effective as a bludgeoning weapon, and is known to knock an opponent backwards or prone.
  • Tower shield/scutum - A massive oval or rectangular shield that can conceal most of the wielder's body, but is heavy and limits mobility.

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. Here are the defensive armor choices available to your characters.

Bonus
This is the number you add to Defense Rolls and record in the "Armor" box on the character sheet
Hindrance
The penalty imposed to certain rolls because of the armor's weight or size. The GM might require that the hindrance is applied to skill checks such as Grip, Dash, Gymnastics, Stealth, Thievery, and perhaps even Perception (if wearing a fully-enclosed helm). The weight of armor should be included when determining Might checks to lift another person, or swim while wearing heavy armor.
Don AP
The amount of time in AP that it takes to put on this armor with assistance. Without assistance, it's double this number.

  • Padded Armor – Armor which is made of layered fabric, such as cotton, linen, wool, or even soft leather, and is usually quilted. Sometimes referred to as a gambeson or a jupon. Often padded armor is a single, long garment that partially covers the thighs.
  • Brigandine – A heavy cloth surcoat reinforced with numerous metal rivets. While offering decent, lightweight protection on its own, it makes for an excellent outer layer for mail.
  • Lamellar – Lamellar armor is composed of many small plates of hardened and laminated leather or metal laced into a padded backing, and generally includes a breastplate, thigh, shin, arm, and wristguards, though it may also take the form of a rather stiff, calf-length coat with short sleeves and bracers.
  • Mail – A mail shirt, called a hauberk, is knee-length and woven from hundred of interlocking metal rings, worn over a lightly padded gambeson. A suit of mail also includes a coif covering the head, chausses to cover the legs, and mail-reinforced gauntlets. Mail is heavier and more movement restricting than lighter armors, but offers a high degree of protection against Slashing and Piercing attacks.
  • Cuirass – Commonly called a breastplate, the simplest type of cuirass encloses the vital organs of the torso in boiled or laminated leather. Cuirasses of bronze, forged iron, or steel tend to consist of two to four durable metal plates held together with leather straps and laces. While a cuirass offers solid defense for chest and back, it is best worn over padded armor to ensure some degree of protection for the limbs.
  • Plate – A suit of metal plates affixed in certain vital locations. Poleyns are strapped over the knees, cuisses over the thighs, couters cover the elbows, pauldrons the shoulders, and a cuirass protects the torso. A tasset is attached below the cuirass to cover the hips. This suit also includes gauntlets and greaves. Plate armor is very noisy and restrictive to movement, but provides great protection.
  • Full Plate – A finely-crafted suit of armor that is individually fitted to the wearer. Full suits of plate armor are tremendously expensive; even the plainest suit of full plate marks the wearer as someone of wealth, and many are elaborately adorned to show status and lineage. Each piece of the armor is riveted and interlocked with another piece, providing total covering of the body from head to toe. A helmet with a visor is included, along with sabatons covering the feet and gauntlets for the hand. The pieces of armor are strapped to a layer of padded armor beneath. Full plate is heavy and restrictive, but provides the best protection possible in a pre-gunpowder age.

  • Acid vial – A small glass container full of a caustic fluid. When thrown or poured onto a combatant, it causes a point of degradation to worn armor (or shield, if a shield is used to parry). The target and anyone within 5 feet of the impact takes 1 point of burning damage. In addition, the target is subject to a Damage Roll. An acid vial has a Harm of 12, and Muscle cannot be included in the Damage Roll.
  • Arrows – The ammunition for bows. Most quivers are made to fit 2 dozen arrows. Arrows are single-use items; a successful shot ruins the arrow.
  • Black powder grenade – A volatile explosive projectile the size and shape of a pomegranate that must be lit and thrown. The thrower makes an Attack Roll, and anyone within 10 feet from the point of impact can attempt to Dodge. A black powder grenade has a Harm of 20, and Muscle cannot be included in the Damage Roll. It makes a stunning boom; all combatants in range, even those who successfully evade damage, must make a DL 15 Stamina check or move one step down the Knockout Track.
  • Bolts – The ammunition for crossbows, heavier than arrows. Pistol crossbow ammunition is 50% of the listed cost. Bolts are sold in bundles of one dozen. Bolts are single-use items; a successful shot ruins the bolt.
  • Firearm rounds – A powder horn and bullets for 10 shots. A powder horn can be used as an impromptu black powder grenade. Neither powder nor bullets can be reused.
  • Flashbang – A sophisticated mixture of chemicals that erupts with powerful light and sound. Anyone within 10 feet from the point of impact must make a DL 20 Stamina check. Those who fail gain the blinded and deafened conditions for 2 rounds. On a Critical Failure, the conditions last 4 rounds.
  • Sea fire – A vial containing a strange, gluey chemical mixture that burns when exposed to air or water. The flames ignite when the vial shatters. Targets struck by this vial immediately catch fire (see Chapter 9: Adventurers Beware). Anyone within 5 feet of the impact takes 1 point of burning damage. Very useful in naval combat, as ship decks, ropes, and sails can be easily set aflame.
  • Sick sack – An animal stomach filled with a putrid muck that would make anyone gag. It's gross! A successful hit causes the sack to burst, ejecting its rancid contents. The target must make a DL 15 Vitality check. Failure bestows acute disgust (i.e. nausea and vomiting) a severity 2 illness [treatable, fightable every hour, limited to 12 hours]. On a Critical Failure, the creature gains the unconscious condition. A sick sack can also be imbued with an infectious disease. "Ichor? I barely know her!"
  • Smoke screen – A mixture of compounds which produces a plume of thick white smoke. The smoke provides total cover, but ranged shots into the smoke have a 50% chance to hit. The smoke clears away within 10 rounds, unless wind is present, which shortens the duration to 2 rounds.
  • Tar ball – A mass of sticky black tar and rope that must be lit and thrown. Targets struck by a lit tar ball catch fire (see Chapter 9: Adventurers Beware). Very useful in naval combat, as ship decks, ropes, and sails can be easily set aflame. Anyone within 5 feet of the impact takes 1 point of burning damage.

  • Sleep Tonic – sedative. Nighty night! This hypnotic brew elicits intense drowsiness when consumed. A creature that ingests a sleep tonic must make a DL 15 Vitality check or gain the unconscious condition. The effects last four hours.
  • Tranquilizer – paralytic. How do you stop a rhino from charging? A tiny amount of this neurotoxic substance is enough to drop a human. Coat an arrowhead in it and you can stop an elephant. A creature who absorbs this chemical must make a DL 18 Vitality check or gain the muted, paralyzed, and prone conditions. The effects last 90 minutes.
  • Smelling Salts – stimulant. It's good to keep some of these in your corner when you're punch drunk. A pungent ammonia smell wafts from this tiny flask.
  • Speed Tonic – stimulant: AP bonus
  • Inertia Tonic – sedative; AP penalty
  • Rage Tonic – stimulant, muscle bonus
  • Pacifier – sedative: muscle penalty
  • Fear Powder – psychoactive. Paranoia in a bag! A fine talc-like powder bound up in a fragile cloth sack that fits in the palm of your hand. The sack produces a pungent cloud of dust when it strikes a solid object. Any creature within 5 feet of the impact must make a DL 18 Vitality check or gain the rattled condition. The effects last one hour.
  • Mind Fog – psychoactive. This coil of incense comprises spices, resins, and oils harvested from rare desert plants. The smoke it produces when lit is severely discombobulating. Creatures that breathe air within 10 feet of a lit coil must make a DL 16 Vitality check or gain the confused and distracted conditions. The effects last one hour.
  • Pheromone Salve – psychoactive: bonus to charm (5 ft radius). Desperation is a stinky cologne.
  • Numb Tonic – psychoactive: unfeeling. "It doesn't matter." This dram of black fluid strips a creature of its emotions. It tastes gross, but it does the job. Creatures who drink it gain the unfeeling condition. The effects last four hours.

  • 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 an Animal Control check (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.
  • Working Horse – Unlike their brethren who are fleet of foot, working horses are bred to pull a load, such as for farming, or by drawing a cart.
  • Warhorse – Warhorses are trained in the arts of warfare and do not require their riders to make checks to avoid being thrown 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.
  • Ox – Typically a castrated bull, bred as a hardworking animal. They're great at both plowing and transport, but they're not meant to bear a rider.
  • Cow – Your standard domesticated cattle. Different breeds may be better suited either as livestock or as dairy animals.
  • Pig – The end result of centuries of domesticating wild boars. Renowned for its meat and hide.
  • Sheep – This herd animal is favored for its meat, fur, and milk.
  • Goat – Closely related to the sheep, but with a cool beard. Also favored for its meat, fur, and milk.
  • Chicken – Domesticated fowl. They're widely used for their meat and eggs. Some regions also favor their feathers.

Availability of these animals depends on the geographic region. For instance, camels are more prevalent in the desert nation of Quensid than horses. The grasslands of The Veldt have far more bison than oxen. When appropriate, use the price listed for a similar animal.
