Temporary Armor

Additional armor can be gained through spells and abilities which grant temporary armor. Rules of temporary armor can be found in the Status Effects page.

Weapons

Weapons are what creatures use to hit their foes. Most creatures with body parts similar to arms and hands can use every weapon. There are several categories of weapons. Each of these can be found in their respective list:

Basic Weapon Attacks

Some abilities may include a phrase similar to "doing a basic weapon attack". This means using the regular attack of a weapon, which is almost always the first active ability.

Improvised Weapons

Some objects can be used as de facto weapons, at the GM's discretion. These objects can be used to perform a basic weapon attack and when making a precision roll with an improvised weapon, it breaks if the roll of the d10 is 3 or below, but the damage is still applied if the attack hits. There are two general sizes of improvised weapons:

Size Damage Throwable Weapon Precision
Small d10 + 5 Yes 0
Large d10 + 10 No -1

Weapon Sets

Weapon sets are helpful guides used primarily during character creation. If you take a bow, you will also get a quiver and 30 basic arrows/bolts. If you choose the throwing spear, you can take up to five spears. Extra spears take up space and require a quiver. A weapon set is any of these:

  1. A one handed weapon and an off-hand weapon.
  2. A one handed weapon and a light one handed weapon.
  3. A two handed weapon.
