| - | Each character can carry up to six (logical) containers (define as you wish), each of which can hold up to three items. | ||
| - | |||
| - | **Armor** takes up some number of the logical containers; light armor is one container, medium armor is two containers and heavy armor is three containers. | ||
| - | |||
| - | **Shields** take up one slot per point of shield bonus. | ||
| - | |||
| - | As for **weapons**, | ||
| - | |||
| - | **Other gear** takes up an arbitrary number of slots based on the item, but the rule of thumb is one stone of weight is one slot. Miscellaneous tiny items can be listed and will take up one slot on its own (for each stone of weight). | ||

| - | === Strength bonus === | ||
| - | |||
| - | The number of containers a character may carry is adjusted by their strength bonus; for each plus, you may carry one additional container. | ||
| - | |||
| - | For example, your character has a 16 strength, which confers a +2 strength bonus. | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | === Encumbering containers === | ||
| - | |||
| - | A character may carry an additional encumbering container, but for each additional container their movement drops by 25% and they take a cumulative -1 penalty on //all// rolls. | ||
| - | |||
| - | For example, your character has an 11 strength and gets no bonus, but is carrying eight containers. | ||
