== Equipping Magic Items == | == Equipping Magic Items == | ||
Magic items require some of the bearer’s Essence, or their life energy, in order to function. By default, an adventurer has 100 Essence Points. An adventurer cannot equip items whose sum Essence cost exceeds this limit. For example, an adventurer could equip two items that each cost 30 Essence, and one that costs 40. An adventurer could not equip three items that each cost 40 Essence, as this would exceed 100 total Essence. | |||
