Transporting Goods

On your travels, you may need to transport goods in large quantities—carting gold from a dragon's lair, shipping ore across the skies, moving grain from one village to another. For this, you'll need transport vehicles and containers.

Transport Animals

Creatures can carry items for you if wearing a saddlebag.

Vehicles

Vehicle capacity is measured in six scales of spacing that describe the number of inventory slots available to carry creatures and cargo.

Storage Containers

You may need to transport goods within storage
containers (chests, crates, barrels, etc.) for security or convenience. A storage container has a number of
inventory slots equal to its bulk rating. See the Item Bulk List for examples.

Nested Containers

You can store containers within containers, but a nested container must be at least one size category smaller than its parent.

Fiction First

Use the vehicle capacities listed here as a guide, but be mindful of the fiction. A galley may have 4,860 inventory slots, but that doesn't necessarily mean it can support the weight of 30 fucking dragons.

If a vehicle is being put under duress by cargo or passengers, an appropriate penalty to its inventory capacity may apply (or the vehicle may be at harm's risk).
