> Armor and equipment fall into fourcategories:
> 1. Requirement to use certain skills. If you have Sword Fighting and you lost your sword to the Lunar guards, you probably can't use that ability to make your escape (unless you cunningly carve a sword out of soap using your Carve Anything Out of Soap ability).
> 2. Situational modifier or credibility issue. A Narrator might decide to give a bonus or penalty to armored characters against non-armored opponents. Additionally, if you don't have certain items, you might lose a credibility challenge.
> 3. Color. Lots of people like to describe their armor, clothes, equipment, you name it.
> 4. Named stuff. If the item is actually really important to the character, than it should be a named ability with a rating.
