Item Cards

The Character Sheet sums up all the capabilities available to your character by virtue of their identity and training. Item Cards -- typically handwritten on 3"x5" index cards -- catalog your character's equipment. Except for ordinary, trivial items, if you don't have an Item Card to represent it, your character does not have the item in their possession.

 

The following are all typically represented by item cards in play:

• Weapons and Armor
• Fetishes and Talens
• Chiminages for the spirits
• Large amounts of cash

 

To be valid, an item card must be approved by a Storyteller with a signature or a stamp.

 

Unlike character sheets, you are responsible for keeping track of your own item cards between games. They are not printed anew for you each session. If you lose them, you may or may not be able to convince a Storyteller to recreate them.
