Gear is what your character possesses. It includes what they’re wearing, what’s on their belt, in their backpack, and what is stated to be in storage back home. Some Gear might give your character mechanical bonuses, while other Gear might just be for the same of roleplay.
I won’t keep track of encumbrance unless something unreasonable happens.
Gear can be purchased at Trader Jeorf’s in the Guildhall of Lake Arcania.
