Starting Equipment for All Characters

Starting Equipment is any items you start with upon character creation. These items will stay with your character upon death aslong as they remain either on your character doll or in the top level of your backpack. If you place these items inside a container in your backpack, or you are a murderer the items will remain on you corpse after death, so always leave them on the top level of your backpack. These items are often referred to as "newbie" items. All characters start with the following items regardless of skills:
