Assuming that encumbrance is not being tracked, then buy lots of splash weapons.
I happen to like your blade, for what it's worth. But, I'm sure you can do something weirder if you'd like :). I am finding it surprisingly hard to spend 2k on mundane equipment. Any advice?
Take a look at my character sheet. I listed things that might be useful, but my character would also realistically have. Treasure chests? A wagon, sacks, rope, a tent, bedroll, rations, soap, heatstones, a compass, fishing gear... He sleeps in his armor (it's light) so I don't have to worry about clothing.
If anything I don't think I have enough gear. I pose the question to you. Did I miss anything? XD
Splash weapons sound good... I might stock up on some holy water and acid... alchemist fire is just asking for everything to go up in flames.
Then again, I'm at least giving an explanation as to why I could carry so much. This wagon can hold 1000 lbs of material. If we are expecting to carry more than that, I suppose I can buy another mule and get a bigger waggon.
EDIT: Also, I made the edit, so now you can just click the blue words that say Character Sheet
Lol - I considered it (have two bandoliers for 16 slots to hold them noted in the list, too). I was thinking a ton of ingredients, but may be a stash of ready made stuff with a chest to hold them would make sense. Or even a blend of the two. Trying to anticipate how the DM will have us meet our equipment, and want it in a form that makes sense.
Oh Captain, you may want to consider using the url tag in your profile to link to the character sheet.
"Magic is very rare. Magical items are even rarer. Wizards, Mages and Sorcerers are the talk of legends."
For backstory purposes, does this mean that a caster (or at least an arcane caster) character would have to live in hiding?
