Remember that if you are encumbered, you must set down all items that are causing you to be encumbered before you can equip a weapon or a shield. Rules on encumbrance can be found [[Encumberance|here]]. | Remember that if you are encumbered, you must set down all items that are causing you to be encumbered before you can equip a weapon or a shield.

=== Action Points === | |||
Adventurers track their capacity to perform different actions using Action Points (AP). AP is used for most actions such as moving, attacking, battle maneuvers, magic, and using objects. The AP Cost (APC) of an action varies depending on how much effort that action would take. | |||
At the start of each turn, you gain 3 AP, and then gain additional AP based on your COR. If you had any Reactive AP, you may add some of it to your new pool of AP. | |||

You may spend your AP as you deem appropriate on your turn. | |||
If you do not spend all of your AP, this turns into Reactive AP that you may spend on someone else’s turnif you have an ability allowing you to do so. This is referred to as a Reactive Action. | |||
When you start your next turn, you can carry over a finite amount of Reactive AP. You can retain no more Reactive AP than 1⁄2 your level + 1. (e.g., a level 1 or 2 character can retain 2 Reactive AP, a level 3 or 4 character can retain 3 Reactive AP, etc.) At the start of your turn, you add this remaining Reactive AP to your new pool of AP<blockquote>'''For example,''' Avery Gray has 2 COR, meaning that they gain 4 AP at the start of each of their turns (3 + the COR bonus). If Avery uses 1 AP to move, and 2 to attack, then they have 1 AP left, which they save as Reactive AP. Avery does not spend this Reactive AP during the round, so at the start of their next turn, Avery gets 5 AP (3 + the COR bonus + leftover Reactive AP).</blockquote>'''Note:''' Some features, like the berzerker’s Blood Rage and the cleric’s Holy Support ability, allow you additional AP (respectively, “Rage AP” and “Holy Support AP”) that follow special rules. You can only ever have one source of special AP. If you would gain more than one source of special AP, you can choose which type of special AP you keep. | |||
