It is very unclear.Can he use training dummies? Weights? Effectively a full set of training equipment could be very expensive, running into thousands of gp's for a very good one. He doesnt own it, but may he use it?According to some people on here he would not use it. This seems odd to me. It is merely training. In this way the book is exactly the same in some respects.Plus, for at least one set of training gear, useing it for a period of time reflects in a permanent bonus. Now again, it is exactly the same as above, the character may not even know about it.Still, I would have no problem with the character training properly. Just like I would have no problem with spellcasters casting spells.Useing one shot items that take awhile to use, and useing thousands of gp in training equipment strikes me as the same as well. So again neither would be allowed by at least some people. Where does it end? At some point the character turns into little more than an untrained commoner who hopes for good things to happen. Or, at worst, an immoble object who cannot breathe for fear that taking in air would constitute owning something more than he should.Of course that is extreme, but everyone is going to place where it goes from being logical to extreme in a different place. The vow is sketchy enough that any number of interpretations can be used. Mine is that since single use items are allowed, then single use items are allowed. The time it takes to get the use out of them is immaterial. It is all about intent and the circumstances surrounding them.</blockquote>
