## Weapons & Armor
For an adventurer, the availability of armor, weapons, and the necessary equipment is of paramount importance. This chapter details the various forms of mundane and exotic merchandise that many adventurer's rely on when facing the many threats that the worlds of D&D present.
### Armor
The Armor table collects the most commonly available types of armor found in the game and separates them into three categories: Light Armor, Medium Armor, and Heavy Armor.
#### Armor Class
Your choice in armor determines your base Armor Class, which is the number enemy combatants need to roll, after modifiers, in order to hit you with weapon or spell attacks.
#### Armor Proficiency
Anyone can don a suit of armor, but only those proficient in an armor’s use know how to wear it effectively. While wearing armor that you lack proficiency with, you have disadvantage on any Ability Check, Saving Throw, or Attack Roll that involves Strength or Dexterity, and you cannot cast Spells that require somatic or material components.
#### Armor Type
To reinforce the varying fantasies of armored combatants, while donning armor, you gain a feature based upon the type of armor you've chosen.
##### Light Armor
If you wear Light Armor, you add your Dexterity modifier to the base number from your armor type to determine your Armor Class. Additionally, while donning Light Armor, you gain access to the following feature:
***Lightly Armored.*** When an attack misses you while donning Light Armor, you can use your reaction to move up to 10 feet from your attacker. This movement does not provoke Opportunity Attacks. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus and regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
##### Medium Armor
If you wear Medium Armor, you add your Dexterity modifier (Maximum of +2) to the base number from your armor type to determine your Armor Class. Additionally, while donning Medium Armor, you gain access to the following feature:
***Moderately Armored.*** When you are hit by an attack while donning Medium Armor, you can use your reaction to reduce the damage taken by an amount equal to your Strength or Dexterity Modifier (Your choice). You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Proficiency Bonus and regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
##### Heavy Armor
If you wear Heavy Armor, you do not add your Dexterity modifier to your Armor Class. Additionally, while donning Heavy Armor, you gain access to the following feature:
***Heavily Armored.*** While donning Heavy Armor, all non-magical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage taken is reduced by a number equal to your Proficiency Bonus. If you don magical armor, you may reduce magical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage as well.
> ##### Unarmored Combatant > With the introduction of these armored features, there are some existing features, such as *Unarmored Defense*, as seen in the Barbarian and Monk classes, or *Natural Armor*, as seen with the Lizardfolk race or Draconic Sorcerer subclass, may become somewhat undertuned in comparison. To adjust for this, consider giving the following feature to players that rely on these types features: > > ***Unarmored Combatant.*** While you are not wearing any armor, you can take the Dodge action as a Bonus Action on your turn. Once you use this feature, you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again.

#### Armor Properties
The following properties define your choice of armor below:
***Skill Restrictions.*** If the Armor table shows a ✓ in the Acrobatics or Stealth columns, the wearer has disadvantage on any attempts it makes with the given check.
***Strength Requirements.*** If the Armor table shows a number in the Strength column, then a creature must meet this Strength Requirement in order to wield the armor effectively. If a creature wearing a set of armor does not meet its Strength Requirement, their speed is reduced by 10 feet.
#### Light Armor
Light Armor favors agile builds, offering some protection without sacrificing any overall mobility.
***Padded.*** Padded Armor consists of quilted layers of cloth and batting capable of protecting your from minor wounds.
***Leather.*** The Breastplate and shoulders of this armor are made of leather that has been stiffened by being boiled in oil. The rest of the armor is made of more flexible materials.
***Studded Leather.*** Made from tough but flexible leather, studded leather is reinforced with close-set rivets or spikes.
#### Medium Armor
Medium Armor offers more protection than Light Armor, but it also impairs Movement more.
***Hide.*** This crude armor consists of thick furs and pelts. It is commonly worn by Barbarian tribes and other folk lacking in the knowledge needed to create better armor.
***Chain Shirt.*** A Chain Shirt is worn between layers of clothing or leather to muffle the interlocked metallic chains that make up the bulk of the armor's defenses. This armor offers modest protection to the wearer’s upper body.
***Scale Mail.*** This armor consists of a coat and leggings (and perhaps a separate skirt) of leather covered with overlapping pieces of metal, much like the scales of a fish.
***Breastplate.*** This armor consists of a fitted metal chest piece worn with supple leather. Although it leaves the legs and arms relatively unprotected, this armor provides good protection for the wearer’s vital organs while leaving the wearer relatively unencumbered.
***Half Plate.*** Half Plate consists of shaped metal plates that cover most of the body. It does not include leg protection beyond simple greaves that are attached with leather straps.
#### Heavy Armor
Of all the armor categories, Heavy Armor offers the most protection. These suits of armor cover the entire body and are designed to stop a wide range of attacks, or at the very least, lessen their blows. Only proficient warriors can manage their weight and bulk.
***Ring Mail.*** This armor is merely Leather Armor with heavy rings sewn into it to help reinforce the armor. Ring Mail is inferior to Chain Mail, and it's usually worn only by those who can’t afford better armor.
***Chain Mail.*** Made of interlocking metal rings, Chain Mail includes a layer of quilted fabric worn underneath the mail to prevent chafing and to cushion the impact of blows.
***Splint.*** This armor is made of narrow vertical strips of metal riveted to a backing of leather that is worn over cloth padding. Flexible Chain Mail protects the joints.
***Plate.*** Plate consists of shaped, interlocking metal plates to cover the entire body. A suit of plate includes gauntlets, heavy leather boots, a visored helmet, and thick layers of padding underneath the armor.

##### Shields

| Tower Shield | 175 gp | +3 | Str 17 | Bulwark, Shield Wall | 45 lb. |
#### Helmets
When donning armor of a type with which you are proficient, you may choose to don a helmet. The Cost and Weight of a helmet is equal to 1/10th that of a given suit of armor. For example, a helmet for a suit of scale mail would cost 5 gold pieces and weigh 4.5 pounds while one for a set of Plate armor would cost 150 gold pieces and weigh 6.5 pounds.
Donning a helmet gives you a -2 penalty to perception checks and your Passive Perception score. Additionally, whenever you suffer a Critical Hit while donning a helmet, you can use your reaction to turn it into a normal hit. When negating a Critical Hit in this way, your helmet is damaged or destroyed and must be repaired before you can don it again.
### Shields
A Shield is made from wood or metal and is carried in one hand. Wielding a Shield increases your Armor Class (AC) by the number shown on the Shield Table. You can benefit from only one Shield at a time.
Additionally, whenever you are hit with a melee weapon attack while wielding a shield, you can use your reaction to attempt to negate the hit. To do so, you must make a Strength (Athletics) check against the attack roll. On a success, you negate the damage entirely. Whether or not you succeed, your shield is damaged or destroyed and must be repaired before you can don it again.
#### Shield Proficiency
In order to use a Shield effectively, you must be proficient with Armor of the Shield's type, ie proficiency in Light Armor gives you proficiency in Light Shields, proficiency in Medium Armor gives you proficiency in Medium Shields, etc.
While wielding a Shield that you are not proficient with, you have disadvantage on any Ability Check, Saving Throw, or Attack Roll that involves Strength or Dexterity, and the Shield loses all of its properties while retaining it's AC bonus.
#### Shield Properties
All shields have various relevant Properties, as seen below:
***Adorned.*** Shields with the adorned property are worn over one shoulder and an entire arm, allowing you to retain enough manual precision to perform simple tasks such as holding an object, opening or closing a door, grappling a creature, etc. You can not wield weapons with this hand unless you are wielding a versatile weapon in two hands.
***Armament.*** While donning this shield, you can attack with it as if it were a simple melee weapon with the listed weapon properties. You may treat proficiency with this shield as being proficient with its weapon attacks and, on a hit, you deal bludgeoning damage equal to 1d4 + your Strength modifier.
***Bulwark.*** While donning this shield, your speed is reduced by 5 feet and you have disadvantage on all Dexterity checks. Even if you are not proficient with this shield, you retain this property while donning this shield.
***Deployable.*** While donning this shield, you can use an Action to deploy it in an unoccupied space within 5ft of you. While deployed in this way, the shield can provide half cover to a creature standing behind it. Once deployed in this way, the shield can be picked up as a Bonus Action.
***Mounted Defense.*** Donning this shield while mounted grants your mount a +1 bonus to its Armor Class.
***Parrying.*** If you are hit with an attack while donning this shield, you can use your reaction to increase your AC against the triggering attack by a number equal to your Proficiency Bonus, potentially causing it to miss.
***Shield Wall.*** This shield grants an additional +1 bonus to your Armor Class while at least one allied creature wielding a shield with the same property is standing directly next to you. When providing this bonus to an ally, creatures standing 5 feet behind your shield wall gain half cover.
***Strength Requirements.*** In order to properly wield some shields, you must meet the listed Strength Requirement or else have your speed reduced by 10 feet.

##### Ammunition
| Name | Cost | Weight |
|:---|:---:|:---|
| Arrows (20) | 1 gp | 1 lb. |
| Blowgun Needles (25) | 5 sp | 1 lb. |
| Crossbow Bolts (20) | 2 gp | 1.5 lb. |
| Sling Bullets (20) | 4 cp | 1.5 lb. |
### Weapons
Your class grants Proficiency in certain weapons, reflecting both the focus of the class and the tools you are most likely to use. Whether you favor a Longsword or a Longbow, your weapon and your ability to wield it effectively can mean the difference between life and death while adventuring.
The Weapons Tables show the most common weapons, their price and weight, the damage they deal on a hit, and any special Properties they possess. A melee weapon is used to Attack a target within 5 feet of you, whereas a ranged weapon is used to Attack a target at a distance.
#### Weapon Proficiency
Your race, class, and feats can grant you Proficiency with certain weapons or categories of weapons, wit the two categories being Simple or Martial Weapons.
Simple weapons are those that most anyone can learn to wield effectively, whereas Martial Weapons are known to be wielded by more experienced combatants. Proficiency with a weapon allows you to add your Proficiency bonus to the Attack roll for any Attack you make with that weapon.
#### Damage Type
When dealing damage with a weapon with which you are proficient, your weapon of choice will deal one of three damage types: Bludgeoning, Piercing, or Slashing. Each of these damage types come with an additional property.
***Bludgeoning Damage.*** These weapons crush, shatter, or pierce armor. When you attack a target wearing Heavy Armor or wielding a Shield with an Attack that deals bludgeoning damage, you gain a +2 bonus to the attack roll. You also gain this bonus against creatures with thick shells, metallic skins, and other forms of natural armor, at your DM's discretion.
***Slashing Damage.*** These weapons attack with wide movements. Whenever you hit a creature with an attack, you can target another creature within 5 feet of the first that is still within range of your weapon. If the initial attack roll would hit your new target, they take the weapon’s normal damage. You can make this extra attack only once per turn, and do not add your ability modifier to the damage.
***Piercing Damage.*** These weapons especially damage enemies when they hit just right. When rolling the highest possible value on your weapon die, you gain a +2 bonus to the damge roll of the attack. You can only apply this bonus once per attack.
#### Weapon Properties
All weapons have a series of different properties meant to define their use, as seen below:
***Agile.*** When wielding an agile weapon with two hands, you can choose to use either your Strength or Dexterity modifier for both your attack and damage rolls.
***Ammunition.*** You can use a weapon that has the Ammunition property to make a ranged Attack only if you have Ammunition to fire from the weapon. Each time you Attack with the weapon, you expend one piece of Ammunition, drawing the Ammunition from a Quiver, case, or other container as a part of the Attack (you need a free hand to load a one-handed weapon).
***Concealed.*** You have advantage on ability checks made to hide or conceal a weapon with this property.
***Covert.*** While hidden, attacks with a covert weapon do not automatically reveal your location.

When doing so, you do not add your ability modifier to the damage of the additional attack.
***Loading.*** You can fire this weapon a number of times equal to its Loading score before needing to reload. When taking the Attack Action, you can reload a weapon with this trait in place of one of your attacks. Alternatively, you can expend half your total movement speed in order to reload your weapon once for free. This reduction can be made once per turn per weapon and lasts until the end of your current turn.
***Mounted.*** You must wield Mounted weapons with two hands when unmounted and, when wielding one, you have disadvantage on all attacks within 5 feet of you.

***Open-Handed.*** When wielding an open-handed weapon, you retain enough manual precision to perform simple tasks such as holding an object, opening or closing a door, grappling a creature, etc. Your DM may allow other simple tasks to be added to this list.
***Parrying.*** If you are hit with an attack while wielding this weapon, and are not donning a shield, you can use your reaction to increase your AC against the triggering attack by a number equal to your Proficiency Bonus, potentially causing it to miss. If you attempt to parry an attack while wielding two parrying weapons, you can roll a d4, increasing your Armor Class by an additional amount equal to the roll.

### Firearms
Firearms within a fantasy setting are often the cause of much debate. The firearms in this supplement are meant to capture the fantasy of a heavy hitting technology that is new to the world, and as such, hard to find and even harder to control.
Built upon a more complex technology than bows and crossbows, firearms have additional rules that apply to them. The following is a list of firearms, rules, and properties, as intended to work alongside the rest of this supplement.
#### Firearm Proficiency
As a newly formed and highly dangerous technology, firearms are a rare form of weaponry. As such, proficiency with firearms is rare and separated from one's proficiency in simple or martial weapons. During downtime, a character can use the training rules, as described in chapter 8 of the Player's Handbook, to acquire this proficiency as long as they have the necessary time, training, and resources to do so.
#### Ballistic Damage
As such a rare form of weaponry, firearms require an extreme precision in order to properly utilize the intensive power of such volatile technologies. Because of this, firearms deal a unique damage type known as Ballistic damage.
When attacking with a weapon that deals Ballistic Damage, you choose to deal either Bludgeoning or Piercing Damage instead. You must decide which damage type you are dealing before rolling to attack. This damage benefits from the properties associated with each damage type as normal.
#### Powder-Based Weaponry
Firearms utilize a volatile chemical substance known as black powder as a propellant. Each time you attack with one, you must expend one pinch of powder and a single bullet. See the Munitions sections below for additional propellants.
Unless specifically designed or prepped to do so, firearms do not last long in overly damp or humid conditions without intensive upkeep. If completely submerged in water, a firearm becomes unusable and must be cleaned over the course of a short or long rest before it can be fired again.
#### Firearm Types
Firearms are specialized weapons, with each intended to fill a particular need. The following are the three broadest categories of weaponry that have emerged as firearm-based technologies have have grown and evolved over the years as well as their associated reload speeds.
***Muskets.*** These heavy firearms are full-sized military arms, firing large musket balls with weighted powder charges. As an Action, you can expend your full movement speed in order to reload a Musket you are carrying. This reduction can be made once per turn and lasts until the end of your current turn.
***Pistols.*** Pistols are smaller, hand-held firearms designed for quick and easy carry. They are best used at a medium-to-close range, most often when closing the distance towards a target. You can reload a Pistol as an Action.
***Rifles.*** Rifles are two-handed firearms built with grooved barrels, which imparts a spin to it in flight, greatly increasing its range and damage in the process. As an Action, you can expend half your total movement speed in order to reload a Rifle you are carrying. This reduction can be made once per turn and lasts until the end of your current turn.
##### Firearm-Based Ammunition
| Name | Cost | Weight |
|:---|:---:|:---:|
| Musket Shots (20) | 10 gp | 4 lb. |
| Pistol Bullets (20) | 3 gp | 2 lb. |
| Rifle Bullets (20) | 5 gp | 3 1/2 lb. |

##### Firearms Table
| Name | Cost | Damage | Properties | Weight |
|:---|:---|:---:|:---|:---:|
| *Firearms: Muskets*

#### Firearm Properties
Firearms are a new and volatile technology, and as such bring their own unique set of weapon properties. Some properties are followed by a number, and this number signifies an element of that property (outlined below).
***Ammunition.*** All firearms require ammunition to make an attack and, due to their rare nature, ammunition may be near impossible to find or purchase. If materials are properly gathered, you can craft ammunition yourself using a Munitions Kit at half the cost. Each firearm uses its own unique ammunition and is generally sold or crafted in batches listed on the previous page next to the price.
***Close-Quarters.*** Close-Quarters weapons fire a compact burst of shot that is highly effective up close. These weapons do not have a longer range when fired. Instead, starting from the value in parenthesis at the end of this property, reduce the damage of the weapon by 1 die for every 10 feet you are from your target, up to its normal range.
For example, a blunderbuss deals its maximum of 6d6 ballistic damage to targets that are up to 10 feet away. However, it deals 5d6 ballistics damage to targets 20 feet away, 4d6 ballistics damage to targets 30 feet away, etc.
***Heavy.*** In order to properly wield a Heavy weapon, your Strength score must be equal to or greater than 13. If you do not meet this requirement, you have disadvantage on all attack rolls made while wielding a weapon with this property.
***Impact.*** Impact weapons are designed to pack a punch, even when placed in the hands of an untrained combatant. When you hit a creature with an Impact weapon, you do not add your ability modifier to the damage roll and, on a Critical Hit, the target of the attack is knocked prone.
***Light.*** You may engage in Two-Weapon Fighting when wielding two separate Light weapons at a time, each in one hand. As such, when you take the Attack Action on your turn to attack with a Light weapon in one hand, you can make an additional attack as part of the same Action with the weapon in your off-hand. When doing so, you do not add your ability modifier to the damage of the additional attack.
***Loud.*** When firing a Loud Firearm, it expels a bright flash of light, a puff of smoke, and an explosion of sound that can be heard by all creatures within 300 feet.
***Misfire.*** Whenever you make an attack roll with a firearm and the roll on the dice is equal to or lower than its Misfire score, the attack misses and the weapon misfires, rendering it unusable. Before a misfired weapons can be fired again, its chamber must be emptied and repaired. To repair your firearm, you can spend an Action to make a successful Munitions Kit check (DC 10 + Misfire Score). On a failure, the weapon is broken and must be mended over the course of a short or long rest, at a tenth of its original cost. When a creature that lacks proficiency in firearms wields one, they increase the weapon’s misfire score by 2.
***Reload.*** Because of the time needed to reload this weapon, you can fire it a number of times equal to its Reload score before you need to reload. Unlike the Loading property, as can be seen on all crossbows, firearms are known for a series of fairly complex systems of reloading, based upon their varying designs. Look to the Firearm Types section above to find how to reload a given firearm.
***Two-Handed.*** This weapon requires two hands when you Attack with it. If wielding this weapon with one hand, you have disadvantage on all attack rolls.

These different forms effect how a poison is extracted, handled, and delivered, making certain poisons more desirable for certain situations. A number of poisons are detailed below alongside an attached number in parentheses denoting the number of doses a single vial has before being entirely expended.
##### Applied Poisons
Applied poisons can be applied to weapons, ammunition, and other objects that deal piercing or slashing damage. These poisons are considered Coatings and follow the same rules, as seen above. Applied poisons last for an hour, or until a creature takes damage from the object it is coated on, exposing that creature to the effects of the poison.
***Darklight Poison (3).*** This poison is made by the Drow in places far removed from the surface, for the poison loses its potency upon exposure to harsh light. A creature subjected to this poison must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 1 hour. If their saving throw fails by 5 or more, they fall unconscious while poisoned in this way. The creature wakes up if it takes damage or if another creature takes an Action to shake it awake.
***Purple Worm Poison (1).*** This poison must be harvested from a dead or incapacitated Purple Worm. A creature subjected to this poison must make a DC 19 Constitution saving throw, taking 42 (12d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
***Serpent Venom (5).*** This poison must be harvested from a dead or incapacitated Giant Poisonous Snake. A creature subjected to this poison must succeed on a DC 11 Constitution saving throw, taking 10 (3d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
***Wyvern Poison (3).*** This poison must be harvested from a dead or incapacitated wyvern. A creature subjected to this poison must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw, taking 24 (7d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

##### Contact Poisons
Contact poison must be applied directly to the skin and are designed to do so discreetly. A creature that touches a contact poison with exposed skin suffers its effects. These poisons often take time to fully take effect and may be applied in a variety of ways, such as lightly coating the outside of one's glove and giving your target a simple handshake or however else you wish to deliver it. Depending on your choice of delivery, applying a Contact poison to a target may require a Dexterity (Sleight of Hands) check do to so discreetly.
***Jitterlocke (3).*** When subjected to this poison, a creature must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, it is poisoned for 1 hour and has disadvantage on all Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution ability checks.
***Lotus Extract (1).*** One hour after being subjected to this poison, a creature must make a DC 12 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 24 hours. While poisoned in this way, the creature begins to feel extremely fatigued and must make another Constitution saving throw at the end of each hour. On a failure, the creature gains one level of exhaustion. On a success, the effect ends and they recover from any levels of exhaustion gained in this way.
***Mind's Burn (3).*** When subjected to this poison, a creature must make a DC 15 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, it is poisoned for 1 hour and has disadvantage on all Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma ability checks.
***Oil of Taggit (3).*** A creature subjected to this poison must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or become poisoned for the next hour or until they have taken time to relieve their bowels. If they have not done so by the time the effects of this poison have ended, their bowels will relieve themselves in their stead.
##### Injested Poisons
A creature must swallow an entire dose of ingested poison to suffer its effects. The dose can be delivered in food or a liquid. You may decide that a partial dose has a reduced effect, such as allowing advantage on the saving throw or dealing only half damage on a failed save.
***Assassin’s Blood (3).*** A creature that ingests this poison must make a DC 10 Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, it takes 6 (1d12) poison damage and is poisoned for 24 hours. On a successful save, it takes half damage and isn’t poisoned.
***Midnight Tears (1).*** A creature that ingests this poison suffers no effect until the stroke of midnight. If the poison has not been neutralized before then, the creature must succeed on a DC 17 Constitution saving throw, taking 31 (9d6) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
***Pale Tincture (1).*** A creature subjected to this poison must succeed on a DC 16 Constitution saving throw or take 3 (1d6) poison damage and become poisoned. The poisoned creature must repeat the saving throw every hour, taking 3 (1d6) poison damage on a failed save until the poison ends. While poisoned in this way, the damage the poison deals can’t be healed by any means. After three successful saves, the effect ends and the creature can heal normally.
***Truth Serum (1).*** A creature subjected to this poison must succeed on a DC 12 Constitution saving throw or become poisoned for 1 hour. The poisoned creature can’t knowingly speak a lie, as if under the effect of a Zone of Truth spell.

##### Inhaled Poisons
These poisons are powders or gases that take effect when inhaled. As an Action, you may blow the powders or release the gases infused with this poison, subjecting creatures in a 15-foot cube, originating from yourself, to its effects. Using more doses may allow for targeting greater areas. The resulting cloud dissipates immediately. Holding one’s breath is ineffective against inhaled poisons, as they affect nasal membranes, tear ducts, and other parts of the body as well.
***Burnt Othur Fumes (1).*** A creature subjected to this poison must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or take 10 (3d6) poison damage, and must repeat the saving throw at the start of each of its turns. On each successive failed save, the creature takes 3 (1d6) poison damage. After three successful saves, the poison ends.
***Essence of Ether (1).*** A creature subjected to this poison must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 1 hour. If their saving throw fails by 5 or more, they fall unconscious while poisoned in this way. The creature wakes up if it takes damage or if another creature takes an Action to shake it awake.
***Ironlung (1).*** When subjected to this poison, a creature must make a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 1 hour. While under the effects of this poison, the creature is sent into a coughing fit and has disadvantage on Constitution saving throws and Dexterity ability checks.
***Malice (1).*** A creature subjected to this poison must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or become poisoned and blinded for 1 minute. At the end of each of its turns, the target can make another Constitution saving throw, ending the effect of the poison on a success.
#### Potions
Potions are Consumables that can be used to to grant a variety of effects when consumed, such as restoring Hit Points, granting limited, magical abilities, curing afflicting ailments, among others. You may consume a potion on your person as a Bonus Action, but must use an Action to feed a potion to another creature within 5 feet of you.
***Potion of Elemental Breath.*** After drinking this potion, you can use a Bonus Action to exhale a surge of elemental breath at a target within 30 feet of you. The target must make a DC 13 Dexterity saving throw, taking 4d6 damage of the given type listed in parentheses on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The effect ends after you exhale your elemental breath three times or after 1 hour has passed. The damage type of the potion's breath is decided upon the Elixir's initial brewing from the following list: Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, Poison, and Thunder.
***Potions of Healing.*** When you drink this potion, you regain hit points. The number of hit points depends on the potion's rarity, as shown in the table below. You may drink this potion as an Action instead of a Bonus Action in order to take the potions maximum amount of healing.
| Potion of ... | Rarity | Healing |
|:---:|:-----------:|:-----------:|
|Minor Healing| Common | 2d4+2 |
|Greater Healing| Uncommon | 4d4+4 |
|Superior Healing| Rare | 8d4+8 |
|Supreme Healing| Very Rare | 10d4+20 |
\pagebreakNum
***Potion of Heroism.*** When you drink this potion, you gain 10 temporary hit points and, for the next hour, you gain the effects of the Bless spell (no concentration).
***Potion of Speed.*** When you drink this potion, you gain the effects of the haste spell for 1 minute (no concentration). When the spell ends, you gain one level of exhaustion.
***Potion of Vitality.*** When you drink this potion, you are cured of any disease or poison currently affecting you and may reduce your exhaustion level by one. Additionally, for the next 24 hours, you have advantage on rolls with your Hit Dice made to regain hit points.
### Munitions
Compared to the weapons above, Munitions are a far more volatile equipment. From rare firearm propellants to more commonly found equipment, such as a flask of oil or vial of acid, Munitions cover a wide range of equipment options.
#### Explosives
Explosives are a type of Munition designed for an expressly destructive purpose. To make proper use of the following Explosives, you must have proficiency with Munitions Kits.
***Blasting Charge.*** You can affix this explosive charge to the walls, floor, or ceiling of a given structure. The charge will detonate 1 minute after its fuse has been set, forcing each creature within 20 feet of the charge must make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw, taking 5d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. This damage is doubled to any objects or structures in the area.
***Dynamite.*** As an Action, you can light a stick of dynamite and throw it to a point within 30 feet of you. Each creature within 5 feet of that point must succeed on a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw, taking 3d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. When bundled together, sticks will explode at the same time, increasing the damage by 1d6 (to a maximum of 10d6) and the burst radius by 5 feet (to a maximum of 20 feet) for each additional stick.
***Shrapnel Bomb.*** As an Action, you can light this bomb and throw it to a point within 30 feet of you. Each creature within 5 feet of that point must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw, taking 3d6 fire damage and 3d6 piercing damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
***Smokepowder Bomb.*** As an Action, you can light this bomb and throw it to a point within 30 feet of you. One round after landing, it emits a cloud of smoke that creates a heavily obscured area in a 15-foot radius. A moderate wind (at least 10 miles per hour) disperses the smoke in 4 rounds; a strong wind (20 or more miles per hour) disperses it in 1 round.
#### Propellants
Propellants are primarily used to fire a bullet out of the barrel of a firearm. In order to do so, propellants are designed to be extremely flammable and should be kept accordingly. The listed price of any propellant is for that of a powderhorn, which holds enough powder for 30 shots from any firearm. A single powderkeg fits 5 powderhorns worth of any propellant and accordingly costs 5 times as much.
***Blackpowder.*** Blackpowder is the most common propellant, and can be used to load a firearm as normal. Setting fire to a container full of Blackpowder can cause it to explode, dealing fire damage to creatures within 15 feet of it (3d6 for a powder horn, 7d6 for a keg). A successful DC 12 Dexterity saving throw halves the damage.
***Smokeless Powder.*** Smokeless Powder is a more timid mixture than the more common Blackpowder, opting in favor of control over power. When used to load a firearm, it has its Misfire score decreased by 1 (To a mimimum of 1), and has the range that its shots can be heard decreased to 100 feet. In exchange for these benefits, the firearm has a -2 penalty to damage rolls on a hit and has its range halved. Setting fire to a container full of Smokeless Powder can cause it to explode, dealing fire damage to creatures within 10 feet of it (2d6 for a powder horn, 5d6 for a keg). A successful DC 10 Dexterity saving throw halves the damage.
***High-Density Powder.*** High-Density Powder is a special mixture meant to pack an extra punch with each shot. When used to load a firearm, the firearm has a +2 bonus to damage rolls on a hit and has its Misfire score increased by 1. Setting fire to a container full of High-Density Powder can cause it to explode, dealing fire damage to creatures within 20 feet of it (4d6 for a powder horn, 9d6 for a keg). A successful DC 15 Dexterity saving throw halves the damage.
#### Throwables
Carried in simple vials or flasks, Throwable items can be used as one might suggest, allowing you to target a nearby location to coat in its contents. Each item listed below prompts a Dexterity saving throw against creatures within a given area. When throwing any of these items, however, you may choose to target a single creature instead of an area, giving the target disadvantage on their saving throw.
***Acid Vial.*** As an Action, you can throw this vial to a point within 20 feet of you, shattering it on impact. Creatures within 10 feet of the target location must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or take 2d6 acid damage. When used against any objects or structures, the damage is doubled.
***Alchemist's Fire.*** As an Action, you can throw this flask to a point within 20 feet of you, shattering it on impact. Creatures within 10 feet of the target location must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or catch on fire. While on fire, they take 1d6 fire damage at the start of each of their turns and can use an Action to make another Dexterity saving throw, extinguishing the flames on a success.
***Grease Bottle.*** As an Action, you can throw this bottle to a point within 20 feet of you, shattering it on impact. The area within 10 feet of the target location is covered in grease and becomes difficult terrain. When the bottle is thrown, creatures within this area must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or be knocked prone. Similarly, any creature that enters the area or ends its turn there must also succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or fall prone.
***Holy Water.*** As an Action, you can throw this bottle of holy water up to 20 feet, shattering it on impact. Creatures within 10 feet of the target location must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or be doused in its waters. If the target is a fiend, undead, or some other form of desecrated creature, on a failure, it takes 2d6 radiant damage.
***Oil Flask.*** As an Action, you can throw this flask to a point within 20 feet of you, shattering it on impact. Creatures within 10 feet of the target location must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or be covered in oil. While covered in oil, if the creature takes any taking fire damage, that damaged is increased by 1d6. When poured on the ground, a single flask can cover a full 5-foot-square and, when lit, burns for 1 minute and deals 1d6 fire damage to any creature that enters its area for the first time on a turn or ends its turn there.

### Spellcasting Focuses
Spellcasting Focuses, or Foci depending on who you ask, are items infused with magic that allow spellcasters to cast their spells in their preferred manner and can be used to supplement the material component of a spell. To do so, the components of the spell must have no cost noted in its spell's description and cannot be consumed in the spell's casting.
In order to properly make use of a Spellcasting Focus, you must first spend an hour attuning its magics to your own. You can only be attuned to one Spellcasting Focus at a time. This attunement does not count against your total number of attuned magic items unless it is a magical item that otherwise requires attunement, such as a Bloodwell Vial.
#### Arcane Focus
An arcane focus is a special item—an orb, a crystal, a rod, a specially constructed staff, a wand-like length of wood, or some similar item— designed to channel the power of arcane spells. A sorcerer, warlock, or wizard can use such an item as a spellcasting focus, as described in chapter 10.
***Crystal.*** Taking the form of a small, enchanted crystal or gem, these Foci are easy to embed into varying forms of jewelery, such as a necklance, ring, or bracelet. While using a crystal as your Spellcasting Focus, you do not need to need to hold it in your hand when casting a spell, as long as it is adorned somewhere else on your person. Additionally, you have advantage on ability checks and saving throws against any attempts to steal or disarm you of your focus.
***Orb.*** An orb is a small, hand-held apparatus often used in arcane rituals, divinatory magics, and a number of other occult dealings. While using an orb as your Spellcasting Focus, the time it takes for you to ritually cast a spell is halved, as long as you use the orb as part of said ritual.
***Spellbook.*** Essential for wizards, a spellbook is a leather-bound tome with blank vellum pages suitable for recording spells. While using a spellbook as your Spellcasting Focus, you can prepare an additional number of spells each day equal to half your Proficiency Bonus (Rounded Down).
***Staff.*** Using the stats of a quarterstaff, these Foci are designed for battle more than most. When casting a damaging spell of 3rd level or lower, while wielding a staff as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to upcast the spell and increase its level by one. Once you cast a spell in this way, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.
***Wand.*** Finely crafted wands are commonly used as Spellcasting Foci in societies that are more learned in the ways of magic. If you cast a leveled spell that deals damage while using a wand as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to reroll one damage die of the spell cast. You may reroll a die in this way only once per turn.
#### Druidic Focus
A druidic focus is an item of the natural world— be that a sprig of mistletoe or holly, a wand or scepter made of special wood, or something similar. A druid or ranger (see chapter 3 of the Player's Handbook) can use such an object as a Spellcasting Focus, as described in chapter 10.
***Sprig.*** Sprigs are a form of druidic focus formed of a living branch or twig pulled from a powerful tree imbued with centuries of druidic magics. When casting a healing spell, while using a sprig as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to reroll one die of the spell cast. You may reroll a die in this way only once per turn.
***Staff.*** Using the stats of a quarterstaff, these Foci are designed for battle more than most. When casting a damaging spell of 3rd level or lower, while wielding a staff as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to upcast the spell and increase its level by one. Once you cast a spell in this way, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.
***Totem.*** Usually pre-attuned to the magics of the wild, totems allow druids to embolden their many connections to the natural world through ancient, ritualistic practices. While using a totem as your Spellcasting Focus, the time it takes for you to ritually cast a spell is halved, as long as you use the totem as part of said ritual.
***Trophy.*** A preserved treasure from a past hunt, trophies are often turned into Spellcasting Foci as a sign of respect to the natural cycle of life and death that rules over your magical domain. While using a trophy as your Spellcasting Focus, you can prepare an additional number of spells each day equal to half your Proficiency Bonus (Rounded Down).
***Wand.*** Often carved from strangely twisted branches or long fallen trees, druidic wands do not hold the finery of their arcane counterpart. If you cast a leveled spell that deals damage while using a wand as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to reroll one damage die of the spell cast. You may reroll a die in this way only once per turn.
#### Holy Symbol
A holy symbol is a representation of a god or pantheon. It might be an amulet depicting a symbol of a deity, the same symbol carefully inlaid as an emblem on a shield, or a tiny box holding a fragment of a sacred rite. A cleric or paladin can use a holy symbol as a Spellcasting Focus, as described in Chapter 10. To use the symbol in this way, the caster must hold it in hand or visibly wear it on their person.
***Adornment.*** Taking the form of a your deity's holy symbol, these Foci are easy to embed into varying forms of jewelery, such as a necklance, ring, or bracelet. When casting a healing spell while using an adornment as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to reroll one die of the spell cast. You may reroll a die in this way only once per turn.
***Emblem.*** Designed to relay rank and status within a religious or militaristic organization, Emblems are donned by warriors and soldiers devoted to a given faith. While using an emblem as your Spellcasting Focus, you do not need to hold it in your hand when casting a spell, as long as it is adorned somewhere else on your person. Additionally, you have advantage on ability checks and saving throws against any attempts to steal or disarm you of your focus.
***Orb.*** An orb is a small, hand-held apparatus often used in arcane rituals, divinatory magics, and a number of other occult dealings. While using an orb as your Spellcasting Focus, the time it takes for you to ritually cast a spell is halved, as long as you use the orb as part of said ritual.
***Holy Book.*** A holy book holds the stories and tenets of your faith and acts as a guide to your life of devout worship. While using a holy book as your Spellcasting Focus, you can prepare an additional number of spells each day equal to half your Proficiency Bonus (Rounded Down).
***Staff.*** Using the stats of a quarterstaff, these Foci are designed for battle more than most. When casting a damaging spell of 3rd level or lower, while wielding a staff as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to upcast the spell and increase its level by one. Once you cast a spell in this way, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.

### Munitions
Compared to the weapons above, Munitions are a far more volatile equipment. From rare firearm propellants to more commonly found equipment, such as a flask of oil or vial of acid, Munitions cover a wide range of equipment options.
#### Explosives
Explosives are a type of Munition designed for an expressly destructive purpose. To make proper use of the following Explosives, you must have proficiency with Munitions Kits.
***Blasting Charge.*** You can affix this explosive charge to the walls, floor, or ceiling of a given structure. The charge will detonate 1 minute after its fuse has been set, forcing each creature within 20 feet of the charge must make a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw, taking 5d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. This damage is doubled to any objects or structures in the area.
***Dynamite.*** As an Action, you can light a stick of dynamite and throw it to a point within 30 feet of you. Each creature within 5 feet of that point must succeed on a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw, taking 3d6 fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. When bundled together, sticks will explode at the same time, increasing the damage by 1d6 (to a maximum of 10d6) and the burst radius by 5 feet (to a maximum of 20 feet) for each additional stick.
***Shrapnel Bomb.*** As an Action, you can light this bomb and throw it to a point within 30 feet of you. Each creature within 5 feet of that point must succeed on a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw, taking 3d6 fire damage and 3d6 piercing damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
***Smokepowder Bomb.*** As an Action, you can light this bomb and throw it to a point within 30 feet of you. One round after landing, it emits a cloud of smoke that creates a heavily obscured area in a 15-foot radius. A moderate wind (at least 10 miles per hour) disperses the smoke in 4 rounds; a strong wind (20 or more miles per hour) disperses it in 1 round.
#### Propellants
Propellants are primarily used to fire a bullet out of the barrel of a firearm. In order to do so, propellants are designed to be extremely flammable and should be kept accordingly. The listed price of any propellant is for that of a powderhorn, which holds enough powder for 30 shots from any firearm. A single powderkeg fits 5 powderhorns worth of any propellant and accordingly costs 5 times as much.
***Blackpowder.*** Blackpowder is the most common propellant, and can be used to load a firearm as normal. Setting fire to a container full of Blackpowder can cause it to explode, dealing fire damage to creatures within 15 feet of it (3d6 for a powder horn, 7d6 for a keg). A successful DC 12 Dexterity saving throw halves the damage.
***Smokeless Powder.*** Smokeless Powder is a more timid mixture than the more common Blackpowder, opting in favor of control over power. When used to load a firearm, it has its Misfire score decreased by 1 (To a mimimum of 1), and has the range that its shots can be heard decreased to 100 feet. In exchange for these benefits, the firearm has a -2 penalty to damage rolls on a hit and has its range halved. Setting fire to a container full of Smokeless Powder can cause it to explode, dealing fire damage to creatures within 10 feet of it (2d6 for a powder horn, 5d6 for a keg). A successful DC 10 Dexterity saving throw halves the damage.
***High-Density Powder.*** High-Density Powder is a special mixture meant to pack an extra punch with each shot. When used to load a firearm, the firearm has a +2 bonus to damage rolls on a hit and has its Misfire score increased by 1. Setting fire to a container full of High-Density Powder can cause it to explode, dealing fire damage to creatures within 20 feet of it (4d6 for a powder horn, 9d6 for a keg). A successful DC 15 Dexterity saving throw halves the damage.
#### Throwables
Carried in simple vials or flasks, Throwable items can be used as one might suggest, allowing you to target a nearby location to coat in its contents. Each item listed below prompts a Dexterity saving throw against creatures within a given area. When throwing any of these items, however, you may choose to target a single creature instead of an area, giving the target disadvantage on their saving throw.
***Acid Vial.*** As an Action, you can throw this vial to a point within 20 feet of you, shattering it on impact. Creatures within 10 feet of the target location must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or take 2d6 acid damage. When used against any objects or structures, the damage is doubled.
***Alchemist's Fire.*** As an Action, you can throw this flask to a point within 20 feet of you, shattering it on impact. Creatures within 10 feet of the target location must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or catch on fire. While on fire, they take 1d6 fire damage at the start of each of their turns and can use an Action to make another Dexterity saving throw, extinguishing the flames on a success.
***Grease Bottle.*** As an Action, you can throw this bottle to a point within 20 feet of you, shattering it on impact. The area within 10 feet of the target location is covered in grease and becomes difficult terrain. When the bottle is thrown, creatures within this area must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or be knocked prone. Similarly, any creature that enters the area or ends its turn there must also succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or fall prone.
***Holy Water.*** As an Action, you can throw this bottle of holy water up to 20 feet, shattering it on impact. Creatures within 10 feet of the target location must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or be doused in its waters. If the target is a fiend, undead, or some other form of desecrated creature, on a failure, it takes 2d6 radiant damage.
***Oil Flask.*** As an Action, you can throw this flask to a point within 20 feet of you, shattering it on impact. Creatures within 10 feet of the target location must make a DC 12 Dexterity saving throw or be covered in oil. While covered in oil, if the creature takes any taking fire damage, that damaged is increased by 1d6. When poured on the ground, a single flask can cover a full 5-foot-square and, when lit, burns for 1 minute and deals 1d6 fire damage to any creature that enters its area for the first time on a turn or ends its turn there.

### Spellcasting Focuses
Spellcasting Focuses, or Foci depending on who you ask, are items infused with magic that allow spellcasters to cast their spells in their preferred manner and can be used to supplement the material component of a spell. To do so, the components of the spell must have no cost noted in its spell's description and cannot be consumed in the spell's casting.
In order to properly make use of a Spellcasting Focus, you must first spend an hour attuning its magics to your own. You can only be attuned to one Spellcasting Focus at a time. This attunement does not count against your total number of attuned magic items unless it is a magical item that otherwise requires attunement, such as a Bloodwell Vial.
#### Arcane Focus
An arcane focus is a special item—an orb, a crystal, a rod, a specially constructed staff, a wand-like length of wood, or some similar item— designed to channel the power of arcane spells. A sorcerer, warlock, or wizard can use such an item as a spellcasting focus, as described in chapter 10.
***Crystal.*** Taking the form of a small, enchanted crystal or gem, these Foci are easy to embed into varying forms of jewelery, such as a necklance, ring, or bracelet. While using a crystal as your Spellcasting Focus, you do not need to need to hold it in your hand when casting a spell, as long as it is adorned somewhere else on your person. Additionally, you have advantage on ability checks and saving throws against any attempts to steal or disarm you of your focus.
***Orb.*** An orb is a small, hand-held apparatus often used in arcane rituals, divinatory magics, and a number of other occult dealings. While using an orb as your Spellcasting Focus, the time it takes for you to ritually cast a spell is halved, as long as you use the orb as part of said ritual.
***Spellbook.*** Essential for wizards, a spellbook is a leather-bound tome with blank vellum pages suitable for recording spells. While using a spellbook as your Spellcasting Focus, you can prepare an additional number of spells each day equal to half your Proficiency Bonus (Rounded Down).
***Staff.*** Using the stats of a quarterstaff, these Foci are designed for battle more than most. When casting a damaging spell of 3rd level or lower, while wielding a staff as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to upcast the spell and increase its level by one. Once you cast a spell in this way, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.
***Wand.*** Finely crafted wands are commonly used as Spellcasting Foci in societies that are more learned in the ways of magic. If you cast a leveled spell that deals damage while using a wand as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to reroll one damage die of the spell cast. You may reroll a die in this way only once per turn.
#### Druidic Focus
A druidic focus is an item of the natural world— be that a sprig of mistletoe or holly, a wand or scepter made of special wood, or something similar. A druid or ranger (see chapter 3 of the Player's Handbook) can use such an object as a Spellcasting Focus, as described in chapter 10.
***Sprig.*** Sprigs are a form of druidic focus formed of a living branch or twig pulled from a powerful tree imbued with centuries of druidic magics. When casting a healing spell, while using a sprig as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to reroll one die of the spell cast. You may reroll a die in this way only once per turn.
***Staff.*** Using the stats of a quarterstaff, these Foci are designed for battle more than most. When casting a damaging spell of 3rd level or lower, while wielding a staff as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to upcast the spell and increase its level by one. Once you cast a spell in this way, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.
***Totem.*** Usually pre-attuned to the magics of the wild, totems allow druids to embolden their many connections to the natural world through ancient, ritualistic practices. While using a totem as your Spellcasting Focus, the time it takes for you to ritually cast a spell is halved, as long as you use the totem as part of said ritual.
***Trophy.*** A preserved treasure from a past hunt, trophies are often turned into Spellcasting Foci as a sign of respect to the natural cycle of life and death that rules over your magical domain. While using a trophy as your Spellcasting Focus, you can prepare an additional number of spells each day equal to half your Proficiency Bonus (Rounded Down).
***Wand.*** Often carved from strangely twisted branches or long fallen trees, druidic wands do not hold the finery of their arcane counterpart. If you cast a leveled spell that deals damage while using a wand as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to reroll one damage die of the spell cast. You may reroll a die in this way only once per turn.
#### Holy Symbol
A holy symbol is a representation of a god or pantheon. It might be an amulet depicting a symbol of a deity, the same symbol carefully inlaid as an emblem on a shield, or a tiny box holding a fragment of a sacred rite. A cleric or paladin can use a holy symbol as a Spellcasting Focus, as described in Chapter 10. To use the symbol in this way, the caster must hold it in hand or visibly wear it on their person.
***Adornment.*** Taking the form of a your deity's holy symbol, these Foci are easy to embed into varying forms of jewelery, such as a necklance, ring, or bracelet. When casting a healing spell while using an adornment as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to reroll one die of the spell cast. You may reroll a die in this way only once per turn.
***Emblem.*** Designed to relay rank and status within a religious or militaristic organization, Emblems are donned by warriors and soldiers devoted to a given faith. While using an emblem as your Spellcasting Focus, you do not need to hold it in your hand when casting a spell, as long as it is adorned somewhere else on your person. Additionally, you have advantage on ability checks and saving throws against any attempts to steal or disarm you of your focus.
***Orb.*** An orb is a small, hand-held apparatus often used in arcane rituals, divinatory magics, and a number of other occult dealings. While using an orb as your Spellcasting Focus, the time it takes for you to ritually cast a spell is halved, as long as you use the orb as part of said ritual.
***Holy Book.*** A holy book holds the stories and tenets of your faith and acts as a guide to your life of devout worship. While using a holy book as your Spellcasting Focus, you can prepare an additional number of spells each day equal to half your Proficiency Bonus (Rounded Down).
***Staff.*** Using the stats of a quarterstaff, these Foci are designed for battle more than most. When casting a damaging spell of 3rd level or lower, while wielding a staff as your Spellcasting Focus, you may choose to upcast the spell and increase its level by one. Once you cast a spell in this way, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest.
