Equipment & Items

[Pikodoodle]

This thread is for discussing equipment and items, beginning with our
starter-equipment.

First, suggestions for equipment we might chip in to buy. Here are
some things that might be useful before leaving town.
1) Donkey (8gp) -- if we're overloaded
2) Lantern -- how bout that nice Bullseye one (12gp)? Also, can we not
all buy torches...
3) Caltrops (1gp per 2 lbs) -- don't know if this is a waste of money
or not. Just thought it seemed cool. If people are going to interrupt
our sleep, they should pay for it.
4) Crowbar (2gp) or Sledge (1gp) -- for prying doors and smashing
wardrobes, mirrors, rats, and cockroaches (my favored enemy).

Questions:
1. I don't know much about being a cleric. What sort of things should
I save money for? Do I need things like scrolls and ink? How would the
party benefit from a feat like Scribe Scroll?

FYI:
Items weigh one-quarter this amount when made for Small characters. Containers for Small characters also carry one-quarter the normal amount.

Hence. backpacks hold 12-1/2lbs and superior backpacks hold 18-3/4lbs.
