Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos/Items

Each Hero can carry up to 6 items (other than a sword, axe, wand, and those kinds of things). These items fall into several categories:
 * Items that the Hero can use to give him a permanent increase in one or more of his stats; usually called "tomes";
 * Items that the Hero can use to give him an immediate increase in one or more of his stats; potions;
 * Items that the Hero can use to give several friendly units an immediate increase in one or more of their stats; scrolls;
 * Items that the Hero can use to provide a specific effect other than the above;
 * Items that have an effect on the Hero and possibly nearby friendly units while carried;
 * Special quest-related items.

These items can be found in various places:
 * Just lying around the map, but usually inside an object;
 * Dropped by neutral or enemy units when they die;
 * For sale in certain shops;
 * Obtained during quests.
