How to Survive

Everything that fits in a bag except weapons, spell cards, clothing and fish, which have their own pages. Worth is the item's value. A trader that deals in it pays 90% of that (35% for anyone else; a crafted thing pays little more than what went into it), and a shop sells it for 2.5 times its worth.
