 To keep things simple, characters in Unbound Tales have a limited number of equipment slots to manage their gear. Besides the armour they wear and items held in hand, each character has five slots to carry additional gear. This encourages players to think strategically about what they carry and prioritize essential items. Equipment [[unbound:equipment:kits:kits|Kits]], which are pre-packaged sets of gear tailored to specific roles or situations, can help players efficiently make use of their limited slots.
+===== Load =====
+Some items, such as heavy armours, shields, and the largest weapons, have a Load value that represents their weight and bulk. A character's total Load---the sum of all Load values for their equipped items---should not exceed their Body attribute.  For every point of Load that a character is carrying over their Body, they lose one point of speed in all modes, and suffer a -2 penalty to all skill checks.
+However, characters with a Body attribute of -1 are not considered overloaded when their total Load is 0.
 ===== Starting Equipment =====
 Every character will start with **100 [[unbound:equipment:coins|silver pennies]]** and an [[unbound:equipment:kits:adventurer_s_kit|Adventurer's Kit]].  Some characters may start with additional equipment, due to their back-stories.  Typically, this will take the form of additional coins.
