Equipment (Bastard Bonds)

Equipment is a type of item that can be equipped by Bastards. Every Bastard has a Weapon slot, an Armour slot, and an Accessory slot.

Weapons are used to increase offensive capabilities, Armor increases defensive capabilities, and the Accessory slot can do both, depending on the equipment item.

Each piece of equipment has particular traits that determine how it will function in combat.
