MAGIC ITEMS

Characters earn treasure points from adventures, the n

redee m those points in exchange for magic ite ms. The

list of available magic items is agreed to and compile d

by the DMs running the campaign.

GAINING TREASURE POINTS

Each character earns treasure points based on an ad-

venture's ti e r and its intended playing time:

• 1 treasure point is awarded for eve r y 2 hours played in
  a ti e r 1 or ti e r 2 adventure.


• 1 treasure point is awarded for every 1 hour played in
  a tier 3 or ti e r 4 adventure.
  As w ith the varia nt r ules for gaining leve ls, this award is
  based on the adventure's projecte d playing time, rathe r
  than the actual time a group spent a t the table.
  If a charac ter comple tes an adventure o f a tier higher
  tha n that characte r's tier, the character receives 1 a ddi-
  tional treasure point for that adventure.

CREATING AN ITEM LIST
T he DMs of the share d campaign should work togeth e r
to compile a lis t of mag ic ite ms that players can pur-
c hase. The magic ite m ta bles in chapter 2 of this book
and in chapter 7 of the Dungeon Master's Guide a re the
obvious starting point. Choosing which ite ms to allow
or ban is a matte r of personal prefere nce, just as it is for
the DM in a standard campaign. Involving all the DMs
he lps to ensure that the lis t meets everyone's expecta-
tions. Whe n in doubt, disallow an ite m; it's easie r to add
it to the available ite ms at a la ter time than it would be to
re move it from the game once it has been handed out.
Naturally, the list of available ite ms is longer for ad-
ventures in the hi ghe r tiers, and the point cost of those
highe r-ti er items likewise inc reases. The Magic [terns by
Tier table provides the de tails.
For instance, treasure points from a tier 1 adventure
can be spent on items from tables A, B, C, and F. Any
item on the firs t th ree tables costs 4 points, and an ite m
from table F costs 8 points.

SPENDING TREASURE POINTS

P layers mus t s pe nd treasure points a t the end of a play

session, imme dia tely after determining whether thei r

characte rs have gained a level. The order of these s teps

is important, since a c ha racter might enter a new tier

because of the level gain.

P layers a re entitle d to c hoose any approved item from

one of the magic ite m tables available in the current tier.

Treasure points can be spread across m ultiple items.

Many items cost more treasure points th a n a charac-

ter can earn in a 2-or 4-hour adventure. To buy s uch an

item, a c ha racte r can make a deposit, spending treasure

points on the item until it's paid off, at which time the

cha racter gains the ite m.

BUYING AND SELLING

Cha racte rs can use their monetary treasure to purchase

a ny thing from the e quipment lists in c hapte r 5 of the

Player's Handbook. In addition, the Adventurers League

allows ch a racters to purc hase potions and s p ell scrolls,

as detailed below. A spell scroll can be purchased

o nly by a character who is capable of casting the spell

in question.
