The Old World: Grim and Perilous

Journeyman's Wand
Journeyman's wands are awarded to the best
graduates from a College of Magic. They are
made of a variety of materials, usually related
to the specific College, and represents the
austerities every wizard have to make. Once
per encounter, while your character is using
a journeyman's wand, they may cast a spell
without suffering strain. In addition, Attack
spells cast by your character increase their
base damage by three.
Lord's Staff
These intricately decorated staffs are granted
only to the best of magisters, who can now call
themselves a wizard lord. When your character
performs the overcast maneuver while using
a lord's staff, their next Attack spell deals an
additional damage per maneuver spent.
However, if the check causes a Miscast,
add + to the results (cumulatively
with basic overcast effect).
In addition, Attack spells
cast by your character increase their base
damage by four.
Magic Ring
Magic rings are items of great power, unique
in the way they give access to magical effects
even to those not attuned to the Winds of
Magic. When your character obtains a magic
ring, the Game Master chooses one type
of magic action, then selects two additional
effects that can be added to that action. One
of the effects can normally only increase the
difficulty of the spell by one; the second can
normally only increase the difficulty of the
spell by one or two. When your character casts
a spell using a magic ring, they suffer strain
and make a Discipline check with the base difficulty
of the appropriate magic action. How-
