Brain Lord/Items

Items
NOTE: These lists may be incomplete. Especially the weapons & armor lists.

Many of the items can be found in the item shop, or weapon shop in town, although the weapon shop won't open until after you beat the first boss. Several dungeons have shopkeepers in them, though they tend to leave once you beat the dungeon, so be sure to stock up on things like shields or mushrooms while you can. Items are worth half their cost (so you buy an apple for 500, but can only sell it back for 250). Shields are an exception, because their selling price is also affected by how many endurance points they have left. They appear to be discounted on a percentage basis, so that a shield with half its endurance left is worth about half as much.

Consumables

 * Apple - Restores 3 HP. Costs 500.
 * Cheese - Restores 6 HP. Costs 1000.
 * Mushroom - Restores 10 HP. Costs 2000.
 * Cape Herb - Cures paralysis. Costs 500.
 * Antidote Herb - Cures poison. Costs 500.
 * Warp Gate - Returns you to town. Costs 1500.
 * Power Capsule - Doubles your power for a short time. Costs 2000.

Special Items

 * Hearts - Use them to gain one life point and to refill your life.
 * Source of Power - Raises your power by 1-3 points. Save before using it.
 * Drop of Protect - Raises your defense by 1-3 points. Save before using it.
 * Reviving Mirror - Revives you, then breaks if equipped. Worth 5000.
 * X-Ray Glasses - Use to see a map of the current level.
 * Magic Wallet - Gains cash over time (but not very much). Use it to drain the cash.  Money in the wallet doesn't appear to be halved when you die.  Worth 50.
 * Scrap of Paper - Reads "... went with Roun to the Tower of Light ... divided into four parts ... down the hidden staircase ... that room ... sealed up the Fairy source..." This seems to be a hint about getting the Foundation jade.  Worth 2.

Jades
Jades hold Fairies that give you special powers or attack the enemy. You can have two jades active at any given time, after which using the other jades will have no effect. If a Fairy is already out, you can use its jade again to recall it. See the section on jades for more information. You can't sell jades once you have bought or found them, so you might want to avoid getting jades you know you will not use to save inventory space for recovery items.
