Random equipment

[kato13]

I have been thinking about restarting my equipment database (work is REALLY boring right now) and I thought it would be fun have members post items that could be added to a random equipment list.

As you have time walk around your house and post maybe 10 things you think would be useful in the T2k/13 world and a similar number of odd things that you think no one else might have.

These in the end could become part of a random PC/NPC equipment list or prehaps a looting table for vehicles or buildings.

Going to walk around my house now, back in a few.


PS I know we have some equipment lists here on the site but post any you might have as well. Thanks.

I thought more about it and I decided on "looting" my own house. The useful were the first 10 things that made it into the bag. (I assumed the food and medicine was spoiled and excluded complicated things like medical and tool kits)


Useful
Bottle 2 oz Cyanoacrylate (super glue)
AA batteries.
Digital Stopwatch
Instant Cold Pack
Bottle Iodine Prep solution (2 Fl oz)
Leatherman Micro (scissors)
Roll Aluminum Foil 250 Square feet
Index cards (pack of 50)
Kite String 250ft
Graph Paper pad 30 sheets.

These took some digging into drawers and closets
Odd

Precision Calipers
Box of 100 Single Edged razor blades.
Precision workstation (with grippers and magnifying glass)
300 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle unopened

2 Plastic Kali fighting sticks
Travel toothbrush with Micro toothpaste (courtesy of Korea Air)
Baseball Cap (Disney world logo)
Digital Scale (mixed with single edged razor blades i know i look like a drug dealer, but I actually use it to measure equipment for my database.)
