[QUOTE="LordEntrails, post: 7992693, member: 6804070"] Items lists are not for me. Because I find them close to useless. Take Aurora's. So there is a list with weights and costs of a dozen different types of boots. But know what? There are thousands or millions of different types of boots. I mean if you want a list for everything... you aren't going to find it. What about Dwarven Goblin Stomper Boots made of cloaker leather and soles inlaid with umber hulk shell for traction? I mean you get the point right? A PC asks me how much for a cloak, I'm not going to say "15 silver and it weighs 1 pound, next!" Instead if it's important enough I'm going to say "What are you looking for? A simple undyed woolen cloak to keep you warm? Or perhaps a royal purple silk cloak with a high cowl and stitched with platinum thread in your house crest?" You can believe they are going to cost, and weigh, different amounts. A single entry for any type of clothes when such are so varied in description, quality, availability, symbolism is really going to be inadequate. I think someone else pointed this out, this seems to me to be more than just about 'missing rules'. Anyways, I hope the OP find game/system for them. There are thousand out there. Enjoy! [/QUOTE]
