Fantasy (starting trek kit)

The Fantasy Starting Trek Kit is a fantasy version of the Common Trekking Kit for the Sojourners Kit/Package. These are typically for a beginning character, but can be presented as a kit for re-equipping existing characters as well. In such a case, the cost will be more reflective of its actual monetary value.

Beginning Character: This is what the average starting PC manages to be gifted with, beg, borrow, buy, earn and/or steal to start their life with. A Player Character (PC) begins play as a wanderer, an adventurer seeking their fortune. They have given up stability and security for a chance at greatness, equipping themselves appropriately. You are assumed to be ready with your own gear when you meet others.

Suggested Baseline = 1/2 a Cost Portion/worth for the Setting/Milieu.
