The durability of armor is functionally its HP. This is rarely important except in the case of shields, which take damage instead of the wielder if the shield is used to block an attack and the damage exceeds the shield's AC.

Other Items

Light Healing Potion	10+1d10 HP
Medium Healing Potion	30+1d10 HP

Strong Energy Potion	50+2d10 MP
Stamina Potion	5+1d10 TP
Generic Antitoxin	Removes three levels of poisoning. May not be effective against rarer toxins.
Venom Concentrate	This is usually applied to a weapon rather than consumed. Adds a level 5 poison effect unless the victim succeeds a TD 20 STA check. It must be taken orally or through a wound that breaks the skin.
Softening Agent	Cures most forms of petrification. Also moisturizes the skin from head to toe when taken orally.
Muscle Relaxant	Cures most magical forms of paralysis. Can be abused for a thrill.
Booster	Comes in many varieties; provides +1 to STR for a set duration.
Alchemical Stimulant	Boosts INT, DEX and AGI by +1 for a short time by increasing reflexes and concentration ability.
Fearless Elixer	Boosts COU by +2 for a few minutes. Sometimes used by Gunnir students delivering speeches.
Arcanagesic	Eliminates all but the most severe aches and pains. It also makes the imbiber temporarily resistant to future pain, adding +2 to STA for the purpose, which also grants the user 10 temporary bonus HP.
Willow Tea	A liquid that helps relieve minor aches. Acts as an anti-inflammatory. Comprised of all-natural ingredients, it is slow-acting but effective.
Anti-gravity Solution	When smeared on an object or person, it allows the subject to move through air as though it were as dense as water. The duration of effect can vary depending on the strength of the potion.
Arcane Polish	Improves the AC of an armor (or even clothing) by 10. It lasts for a few hours if used to polish armor, but its duration is less if applied to fabric.

Drinking a potion that is not already in the user's hand sacrifices the user's opportunity to attack for the round. Applying a potion to an object takes at least one turn. If the potion is incredibly close at hand, the GM may rule that the action takes less time. Most potions are vials or bottles of liquid containing a couple ounces of fluid at most, which makes drinking a potion more akin to taking a shot than consuming an actual beverage.

Only creatures with physical bodies can use potions, but a creature does not have to drink a potion orally for it to be effective. In dire circumstances, a potion may be poured over an unconscious character.

Potions and similar items can be concocted by characters with appropriate skills, such as Alchemy. Most potions are magical in nature, but some are comprised of purely mundane ingredients and have no need for an arcane infusion. The more powerful a potion's effect, the more likely that it is magical.

Steelcutter Bardiche	Moderate	Halberd. Damage +2, +2/+2 AT/PA. Ignores up to 10 points of AC as long as that AC is provided by metal armor. Ignores the hardness of metals; it can chop through solid steel as though it were wood.

Most new characters will not have magical items of any sort, though there can be exceptions in certain cases. This list mostly exists as a set of samples for GMs wishing to create magical items and distribute them as treasure during RPs.
