Equipment

TKTK

Characters can start with a number of weapons based on their class: one for adepts, two for experts, and three for warriors. These weapons must come from weapon groups that the character is trained in. Characters with ranged weapons start with enough ammunition for a fight, but might run out after a prolonged battle or repeated encounters without a chance to retrieve or replenish their ammo. Rhydan do not begin with any weapons other than their natural ones.

Characters can begin with any armor they are trained to wear.
