A candle dimly illuminates a small area, increasing the light level in a 5-foot radius by one step (darkness becomes dim light and dim light becomes normal light). A candle cannot increase the light level above normal light. A candle burns for 1 hour.
Firewood
This bundle of dry wood includes twigs and logs, enough to keep a fire going for 1 day. If camp is moved, a new campfire will need to be set up, and thus a full pile is still needed every day.
One cord of firewood is a pile that is cut and stacked and measures 4' wide x 4' high x 8' long, and weighs ~3000 lbs for oak. A cord of firewood will heat 400 sq. ft. of housing for a year.
Flint And Steel
Lighting a torch with f lint and steel is a full-round action, and lighting any other fire with them takes at least that long.
Lamp
A lamp illuminates a small area, providing normal light in a 15-foot radius and increasing the light level by one step for an additional 15 feet beyond that area (darkness becomes dim light and dim light becomes normal light). A lamp does not increase the light level in normal light or bright light.
A lamp burns for 6 hours on one pint of oil.
You can carry a lamp in one hand.
Lantern, Bullseye
A bullseye lantern provides normal light in a 60-foot cone and increases the light level by one step in the area beyond that, out to a 120-foot cone (darkness becomes dim light and dim light becomes normal light). A bullseye lantern does not increase the light level in normal light or bright light.
A lantern burns for 6 hours on one pint of oil.
You can carry a lantern in one hand.
Lantern, Hooded
A hooded lantern sheds normal light in a 30-foot radius and increases the light level by one step for an additional 30 feet beyond that area (darkness becomes dim light and dim light becomes normal light). A hooded lantern does not increase the light level in normal light or bright light.
A lantern burns for 6 hours on one pint of oil.
You can carry a lantern in one hand.
Oil
A pint of oil burns for 6 hours in a lantern or lamp.
You can also use a flask of oil as a splash weapon. Use the rules for alchemist’s fire, except that it takes a full-round action to prepare a flask with a fuse. Once it is thrown, there is a 50% chance of the flask igniting successfully.
You can pour a pint of oil on the ground to cover an area 5 feet square, provided that the surface is smooth. If lit, the oil burns for 2 rounds and deals 1d3 points of fire damage to each creature in the area.
Torch
A torch burns for 1 hour, shedding normal light in a 20-foot radius and increasing the light level by one step for an additional 20 feet beyond that area (darkness becomes dim light and dim light becomes normal light). A torch does not increase the light level in normal light or bright light.

| Sack | 1 sp | ½ lb. | Holds 1 cubic ft. or 60 lbs. |
| Twine | 1 cp | ½ lb. | 50 ft. length. |
Caltrops
A caltrop is a four-pronged metal spike crafted so that one prong faces up no matter how the caltrop comes to rest. You scatter caltrops on the ground in the hope that your enemies step on them or are at least forced to slow down to avoid them. One 2-pound bag of caltrops covers an area 5 feet square.
The caltrop deals 1 point of damage, and the creature’s speed is reduced by half because its foot is wounded. This movement penalty lasts for 24 hours, until the creature is successfully treated with a DC 15 Heal check, or until it receives at least 1 point of magical healing.
A charging or running creature must immediately stop if it steps on a caltrop. Any creature moving at half speed or slower can pick its way through a bed of caltrops with no trouble.
Caltrops may not work against unusual opponents.
Sack
A sack is a cloth bag that weighs 1/2 lb. empty and holds 1 cubic ft. or 60 lbs. of contents full.

Twine
Sold in balls or spools of 50 feet, string and twine are useful for rigging traps and alarms and are a vital component of grappling bolts and arrows.
String or twine has hardness 0, 1 hit point, and a break DC of 14.
