Parties tend to be made up of extraordinary individuals and they will tend to face extraordinary tests. "Routine" encounters are not part of the average adventurer's lifestyle and every combat is potentially lethal and mis-speaking in certain social situations can be just as deadly. [[The Veil]] means that outside extremely rare exceptions the dead stay dead and the fate of "souls" after death is a mystery. Adventurers might make choices in RP situations or combat that get them into fights that they can not win. Experience will likely be accrued faster than treasure and gold is always in short supply or spent quickly. Players generally must excel on the strengths of their character rather than their bank accounts. Outside of low-level magic potions and scrolls, which are likely to be available in larger settlements, magical items will be extremely rare and not simply available for purchase. | Parties tend to be made up of extraordinary individuals and they will tend to face extraordinary tests.
