  • Cost: 116 gp, 1 sp.
  • Weight: 4.9 lbs.
Spellcasters of the arcane sort may wish to pick up one of these kits to get everything they need to 'get their spells on' with panache and style. This does NOT replace the need for an Adventurer's Kit, but it does get you everything ELSE a bastion of arcane might such as yourself could ever need. Every item in the kit is purchasable separately, but is collected as a kit for convenience. It contains:
Item Weight (lbs) Cost (GP)
Magic Wand 0.5 25 gp
Meager Component Pouch 1 50 gp
Spellbook (Empty) 3 15 gp
Ink 0.2 1 gp
Quill, Writing 0.2 1 sp
Totals 4.9 91 gp, 1 sp

Note that some casters may feel that a magic wand isn't 'magestic' enough to convey their might and glory with sufficient force. For those erudite folks, a Mage's Staff may be substituted for the Wand, for an additional cost and more weight. Those concerned about weight might also prefer the slightly more expensive 'compact spellbook'.

Item Weight (lbs) Cost (GP) Replaces
Mage's Staff (Weapon) 7 80 gp Wand (costs an extra 30 gp and weighs 6.5 pounds more)
Compact Spellbook (Empty) 1 50 gp Spellbook (Empty) (saves 2 pounds, but 30 fewer pages)
A full kit that swaps a wand for a staff, and a spellbook for a compact spellbook would cost 156 gold, and 1 silver, and would weigh 9.4 pounds.
