| + | ==== Resupply ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Items are often expendable in nature. However, in Triptycho they are recovered at the end of each scenario. The typical explanation for this is that the [[wealth|Wealth]] cost for the Item includes the ability to continue to resupply the Item, including having some extras available that the PC can dig around for between scenarios to make an Item available for use again (or having the raw materials needed to construct another). | ||
| + | |||
| + | In other cases, particularly with [[treasure|Treasure]], Items inherently recharge (typically with magic). Recharge time is not specified, but time between scenarios is generally enough to permit this. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The [[DM|DM]] may exert more control over this resupplying if these explanations are found unsatisfactory and/or unrealistic for a given campaign. The DM could rule that the PC must be able to create or purchase a new copy of the Item before allowing it to be used again (though this should not cost additional funds as a single expendable Item is certainly not worth its listed Wealth cost). The DM may also provide a specific time requirement for Items that recharge, especially for Treasure provided. Doing so adds additional bookkeeping to the game, however. | ||
