Historical cooking equipment: an iron pot suspended over a fire

Find practical supplies for travel, trade, survival and daily life, from containers and clothing to transport and hired help. Choose a category below to browse its items. Starting equipment, prices and availability depend on your campaign and rules edition, so check the relevant class and equipment rules before buying or issuing gear.

A well-supplied party is not necessarily a heavily laden one. Decide what the journey demands, who carries each item and what happens if it is lost. Use the category directory beneath these examples to look up the actual gear.

On the road

Start with food, drink and lodging, suitable clothing, containers and camping supplies. When a road becomes a mountain pass, wet weather and the lack of safe water matter more than a new weapon. Decide whether the party carries everything or pays for transport.

Under a ruin

Light has a duration, torches and lanterns require fuel, and a dropped pack can be as serious as a lost weapon. Check lights and flammables, tools and kits, locks and restraints and special-purpose equipment. For a descent, ask who carries the line and who has the means to bring someone back up.

In a town

Travellers may need a letter, a local guide or a place to leave their horses before they need a sword. Browse writing supplies, hirelings and services, transport and formal clothing. A servant or porter can carry equipment; neither automatically grants the party permission to enter a guarded place.

With animals and cargo

A mount or pack animal needs handling, feed, suitable tack and somewhere to rest. Look under domestic animals, beast equipment and vehicles. Check the route before deciding that a wagon can travel it.

For purchases, starting kits, carrying capacity and tool proficiency, use the rules of the edition your group is playing. The collection below is a catalogue of equipment and services, not a shared price list for every game.
