Various '''items''' are scattered on the island. All items can be found by searching in the appropriate place; some tend to be found more in huts and villages, while others are more likely to be found in the jungle. All items can be [[Trading|traded]] to [[trader]]s for what they have in stock.
 
  
You can carry 71 items in your inventory. Each rifle and blowpipe takes 2 inventory spaces, while gold coins don't take up any inventory space. All other items take 1 space.
+
A majority of items can be used by simply clicking on the item itself.  If an item cannot be used in this manner, it will give one a short description on the item itself. This page consists of links that will give an in-depth description on the items available in each of these categories.
  
Clicking on an item in your inventory uses 1 [[AP]]. Generally, this attempts to use the item (such as a ''[[Items#Sharpening stone|sharpening stone]]''); otherwise, you get a message like: "Upon closer inspection, the knife appears to be a weapon." (1 AP is used in either case.)

== Melee weapons ==
 
 
 
The default weapon, the punch, deals 1 point of base damage at 10% base accuracy.
 
 
 
There is an unknown chance of a weapon dealing additional damage during combat. "Maybe it's luck or maybe it's skill, your attack is right on target and inflicts more damage than normal. You attack [the target] for 5 damage." There is also an unknown chance of a weapon breaking during combat, which causes you to lose that weapon. "Unlucky or just clumsy? The blade snaps off and you're left holding the handle, which you discard." See [[Special weapon event odds]] for more information.

== Consumables ==
 
 
 
Using a consumable item takes 1 AP and consumes the item (removing it from your inventory). All fruits and drinks you have are only usable on yourself. First aid kits and healing herbs are unique in that they can also be used to heal [[animals]] and other characters (including [[NPC]] [[trader]]s and [[shaman]]s).

Outsiders without ''[[native knowledge]]'' recognize this item as "a bunch of berries" and can use it normally. (However, such outsiders also see tasty berries as "a bunch of berries" and thus can't tell whether a given bunch is tasty or poisonous until they eat it.)
 
 
 
'''Note:''' Poisonous berries yield 2 XP when eaten. Since characters earn XP again when healing the damage, repeated poisoning and healing is a viable method of gaining [[XP]] for non-combat characters.
 
 
 
=== Bunch of tasty berries ===
 
* '''Restores''': 2 HP
 
* '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $40

Gives the coordinate location of your character when a signal is available in a non-dense, non-enclosed area. Coordinates are in the form [-70.366,+26.443], where the first number is the X coordinate (longitude) and the second is the Y coordinate (latitude). Moving a single square represents a change in coordinate in that direction of 0.001.
 
 
 
GPS units are high-demand items for new characters. There is a very slight chance of finding them lying on the ground in an outsider village, but the best places to search for them are in outsider medical and ammunition huts (see [[Hut]] for search odds). Outsider traders often have them in [[Trading_hut_stock_reports|stock]].
 
 
 
=== Piece of driftwood ===
 
* '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $70
 
* '''[[Locations]]''': beach
 
 
 
Found on beaches, dunes, and boatyards, pieces of driftwood are useful for construction.
 
 
 
A [[signpost]] can be built out of two pieces of driftwood.
 
 
 
=== Sharpening stone ===
 
* '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $50
 
* '''[[Locations]]''': camps
 
 
 
Sharpening stones can be clicked on to sharpen a [[Items#Blunt machete|blunt machete]] into a [[Items#Machete|machete]] or a [[Items#Blunt cutlass|blunt cutlass]] into a [[Items#Cutlass|cutlass]].
 
 
 
 
 
== Currency ==
 
 
 
=== Gem ===
 
* '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $1000
 
* '''[[Locations]]''': ruins, hold (shipwreck)
 
 
 
Ten times more valuable than gold at normal prices. Unlike gold, gems require inventory space.
 
 
 
=== Gold coin ===
 
* '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $100
 
* '''[[Locations]]''': camps, jungle, beach
 
 
 
Being the currency of the island, gold coins are the only items to require no inventory space, and up to ten can be given to any player in the same location via the "Give" button. Clicking on a gold coin in one's inventory flips it and gives "heads" or "tails" as a result.
 
 
 
 
 
== Creatures, and other apparently useless items ==
 
 
 
=== Crab ===
 
* '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': $50
 
* '''[[Locations]]''': beach
 
 
 
Currently useless except in trade.

* '''[[Locations]]''': grasslands
 
 
 
Currently useless except in trade.
 
 
 
 
 
== Magic charms, amulets, and fetishes ==
 
 
 
Charms appear to be a recent addition to the world of Shartak (June 2006). Your charms are automatically listed in your character profile, but other powers and functions (if any) are completely unknown.
 
 
 
=== Rabbit Foot Charm ===
 
* '''[[Locations]]''': jungle
 
 
 
Unknown powers.
 
 
 
=== Parrot Feather Charm ===
 
* '''[[Locations]]''': jungle
 
 
 
Unknown powers.

Unknown powers.
 
 
 
=== Monkey Claw Charm ===
 
* '''[[Locations]]''': jungle
 
 
 
Unknown powers.
 
 
 
=== Tiger Tooth Amulet ===
 
* '''[[Locations]]''': unknown.  One has been found in the shipwreck trader hut.
 
* '''[[Trading#Trading_Hut_Prices|Normal value]]''': <$60 (traded for a cutlass when understocked)
 
* When examined: The tiger tooth amulet doesn't appear to actually do anything. Maybe just carrying it is sufficient if you believe in its power.
