• Ace – An ace is another term for dagger. Daggers and knives are the most inexpensive and prevalent weapon among the common people.
• Aether Torch – A short handle which is capable of producing a tall, super-heated flame from one or both ends which is hot enough to melt through steel. The flame may be shortened or lengthened, but has a maximum length approaching six feet. Dangerous to use, even by proficient handlers, aether torches have been known to explode.
• Arcblade – A sword or other bladed weapon which is imbued with electrical energy in the same way as an Arcglove. Requires arcgloves to handle safely. Powered by a mana cell.
• Arcglove – A gauntlet which generates a flow of electricity along and around it, which can be discharged during hand-to-hand fighting, shocking the opponent. Powored by a mana cell.
• Arcgun – A gun which shoots arcs of condensed electricity at short ranges. Powered by a mana cell.
• Chillcubes – Grenades which discharge a chemical gas which freezes water and chills the air, causing damage to anyone caught in its path.
• Dessication Grenades – Grenades which radiate micro-waves, stealing the moisture from the bodies of those nearby and causing internal organ damage.
• Gunblade – Similar to a bayonet, this is a long blade which can be attached to some firearms, enabling their use as a formidable melee weapon. "Gunblade" is both the term for the blade, and the assembled weapon itself. Not all guns allow for the attachment of a gunblade.
• Ki-blade – Weapons of legend, rumored to hold within them the soul of a dead kensai. When held by a Kensai, a ki-blade allows the wielder to charge it with "ki," or spirit energy, which greatly increases the weapon's deadliness.
• Red Dragon Rifle – A large gun which shoots flames via the muzzle fed by a cannister of highly-flammable, ultra-condensed gas attached to the gun like a magazine.
• Revolver – A handgun with a revolving block consisting of six chambers. Great stopping power, but time is required to reload.
• Sawbracers – Leather bracers reinforced with metal which conceal several small, serrated blades which tear at an opponent in hand-to-hand combat.
• Shiversword – A weapon consisting of a pair of thin blades which move back and forth at very high speeds, causing the weapon to "shiver." This movement of the blades means the cutting edge is extremely sharp. *Shiverswords come in all sizes and are commonly used in cooking or as work tools, in the form of knives.
• "Speakeasy" – An automatic handgun with less stopping power than a revolver that can nonetheless be fired more quickly.
• Springblade – An unextended springblade resembles a shortsword with a long handle, which sometimes make them rather conspicuous. By pressing a button, the springs inside the handle eject lengths hidden one inside the other, turning the weapon into a spear. The new length of the weapon is fixed until the button is pressed again, which allows the shaft to collapse.
• Springstaff – A springstaff functions just like a bladeless springsword, and resembles a short metal rod in appearance.
• Thumpgun – These guns, when fired, produce a single sonic pulse which is inaudible to humanoid ears, but has concussive force enough to knock targets off their feet and hurt them. Thumpguns are commonly used by bounty hunters, and law enforcement, as well as those who wish to trade lethal effect for discretion.
• Trowlish Thundermaker – A larger, very powerful version of the revolver crafted by the Trowls with a Trowl's size and strength in mind. The Thundermaker has 8 chambers in its revolving block. When fired, the noise and kickback are immense. Anyone with a Muscle score of less than 6 firing a Thundermaker takes a -8 penalty on attacks with it.

• Aether Cell – A power source for devices, but second to Mana cells in terms of efficiency and potency.
• Arc Collar – Packmasters attach these collars to the necks, or rarely wrists/ankles, of prisoners, laborers, slaves, or enemies. The packmaster can remotely activate the collar, which sends a shock into the body of the host. Arc collars are often used to "train" captives and are sometimes used in conjunction with Mana Inhibitor Collars (M.I.C.).
• Bloodbook – Relics of the Old Ways, a set of bloodbooks were a way of communicating over long distances. What was written in blood in one book could be read in either all the books or in a single master tome, depending on how the books were enchanted. Since the advent of radio communications, bloodbooks have slightly decreased in value, but due to their easily-disguised nature, they are still utilized.
• Combustion Collar – Barbaric devises still in use by ruthless cultures and slavers, these collars attach to their hosts and remain there until removed by a trained packmaster. The packmaster may activate the collar, at which time it explodes, obviously killing the host and killing or wounding anyone nearby. Any attempt to remove the collar through force results in immediate activation.
• Focus Magnet – A Focus Magnet is a pucklike stone which can be used to push (diamagnetism) or pull (paramagnetism) metal objects through the expenditure of MP.
• Dreamstones
• Mana Inhibitor Collar – Less gruesome than the combustion collar, the M.I.C. continually drains the Mana energy inherent to the host, stopping it from activating any powers, preventing it from casting spells, and keeping it in a state of mild exhaustion. These collars keep a host at a constant state of 0 MP and Stage One on the Knockout Track.
• Mana Cell – a highly efficient, productive energy source for devices and vehicles.
• Memory Stones – Small precious gems which contain memories. The gems are worth a good deal of money on the black market, depending on the memory.
• Rocketpack –
• Soulstones –
• Spellcard –
• Spidercord –

Heavy shield	4	+4	3	B	+1 to Trip	400𝕤

• Light shield – A simple shield made of wood with metal rivets and reinforcements, commonly strapped to the arm. Useful in melee combat as a bludgeoning weapon.
• Heavy shield – A large shield — large 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.

• Padded Armor – Armor which is made of layered fabric, such as cotton, linen, or wool, and is usually quilted. Sometimes referred to as a gambeson or a jupon. Often padded armor is a single, long, garment with sleeves, that would partially cover the thighs.
• Leather Armor – Suits of leather armor are boiled and waxed. Leather is sturdy, won't rust, and allows more free movement than does heavier plate armor. A suit of leather armor would come with a cuirass to cover the torso, as well as bracers or vambrances to protect the forearms, cuisses to protect the thighs, and greaves to protect the shins. The armor components are fastened to the body by laces and hooks.
• Reinforced Leather Armor – Just like leather armor, but with riveted metal studs or plates attached to the leather. The added metal rivets don't add any additional movement restriction, but do slightly enhance the wearer's protection from attacks.
• Half-chain Armor – This armor is mostly leather with several parts reinforced beneath by chain mail. It is slightly bulkier than reinforced leather armor, but takes about the same amount of time to put on or remove.
• Breastplate – A piece of armor made of several interlocked plates that provides protection for the torso. Can be worn alone (only providing a +2 to defense), but usually accompanied by a suit of leather underneath.
• Chain mail – A chain shirt called a hauberk is knee-length mail which includes a coif covering the head. A suit of chain would also include chausses to cover the legs and also mail-reinforced gauntlets. Typically, one would wear a padded gambeson underneath the mail. Mail is heavier and more movement restricting than lighter armors.
• Scale Armor – Scale armor is constructed by affixing small, metal scales to a leather or cloth backing. A suit of scale armor includes a shirt that covers the torso down to the upper thighs and partially the arms. It would include a set of gauntlets, but no leg coverings. Scale armor is not as flexible as mail, but is cheaper to produce. A suit of scale is affixed by leather laces on the backing material.
• Heavy Chain – Similar to chain mail, but the links are far more tightly-knit, leaving less space for weapons to penetrate. Also, the rings are riveted, having small studs that give a greater rate of deflection against incoming blows.
• Half Plate – A suit of mail with metal plates affixed in certain vital locations. Poleyns strapped over the knees, metal cuisses strapped over the thighs, couters covering the elbows, pauldrons covering the shoulders, and a breastplate to cover the torso. A tasset is attached to the breastplate to cover the hips. This suit would also include gauntlets and greaves. Very restrictive to movement, but provides great protection.
• Field Plate – A finely-crafted suit of armor that is individually fitted to the wearer. Full suits of plate armor 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 would be 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. Field plate is heavy and restrictive, but very sturdy.

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.

• 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.
