Items and Inventory
Inventory Slots
Characters have inventory slots equal to their Brawn score. Most items take up 1 slot.
If an item is Bulky, it is heavy or unwieldy, requiring two hands to carry. Most characters can only carry 2 Bulky items, but characters with at least 15 Brawn can carry 3 Bulky items.
If a character is carrying more items than they have inventory slots, and/or too many Bulky items, they lose one point of Brawn per hour for each item they are carrying beyond their means.
Currency
Different areas use local currencies tied to the major companies in those areas, but almost all accept the Gold, Silver, and Copper Buckaroo coins recognized by Angels and their Deputies.
1 Gold Buckaroo (g) = 100 Silver Buckaroos (s)
1 Silver Buckaroo (s) = 100 Copper Buckaroos ©
Armor
All armor has a defense value. All damage dealt to a character is reduced by their defense value, to a minimum of 1. Defense from different sources is additive, but a character's defense cannot increase beyond 3.

Weapon Upgrades
The longer you use a weapon, the more familiar you become with it and the better you fight with it. Keep track of each time you kill an enemy with a certain weapon. When you reach the thresholds in the table below, you attain an upgrade for that weapon.
| Kills | Upgrade |
|---|---|
| 10 | Your weapon deals +1 damage. |
| 25 | When you roll max damage, roll your damage die again and add the two rolls together. You must give your weapon a cool name to get this upgrade. |
| 50 | Your weapon is the stuff of legends. Opposing creatures take a +1 penalty to Morale rolls when you wield it. (This does not stack with other legendary weapons). However, notoriety may also attract thieves… |
