Restricted Items

D&D offers a massive catalogue of strange, unique, and fantastic magic items. Unfortunately, not all of them are ideal for Chromatia's game environment and some still have powers beyond the scope of what a character can or should be able to obtain of their own volition. Whenever you're looking to purchase equipment or craft items, consult this list to make sure your choices are available.

Complete Restriction

An item on the "Complete Restriction" list cannot be obtained by any means outside of Staff Intervention. These items are typically intended for specific campaigns or settings, and those that aren't are simply off the table. Be aware that some 3rd party sites (like 5eTools) are known to list custom- or campaign-specific items that do not otherwise appear in the DDB item catalogues, and are otherwise by default banned from play in Chromatia. If you're ever not sure if an item you're looking at on another site is a "real" item, such as the weapon "Tearulai" from Dungeon of the Mad Mage, use the !item (name) lookup command in #dice-rolls. It the item doesn't exist, assume it's not permitted for play.
