Miscellaneous Items
Miscellaneous items are just items outside of the standard clothing, weapons, and armor that can be useful during a campaign. Like other items, these require an encumbrance slot unless otherwise specified. Some of these could be classified as clothing because they're worn, but they're generally so specialized that they only serve purposes under certain conditions or for purposes other than clothing.

The following additional items are listed here because they are miscellaneous items, but they serve no real purpose unless they are found with some sort of magic or technology attacked to them. Characters are welcome to choose from them if they wish, but they are generally more than worthless because they take up an inventory slot without providing any real value. They are here more for the benefit of GMs who may use an item from these lists to create magical or technological items from.
