Token Database
Use tokendb.com to research any question you may have regarding Treasure Tokens. It has some useful search and filter functions that allow you to find just the info you need. For example, you could see a listing of all Rare two-handed weapons. You could also see something very specific like a listing of all 2012-minted, Rare two-handed weapon tokens that are usable by Barbarians that have "fire" in the token's description.

After you have downloaded and read the Player's Handbook (especially if you are a DM or Coach!), the next thing you want to look at is the various character cards.
There are three different categories of Character Class Cards available. One category is the 4th level version of the characters, one is the 5th level version of the characters, and the final category is the exclusive sub-class cards. To use the 5th level cards, you must equip a token that increases your character's level. To play a sub-class, you must equip either a completed Rod of Seven Parts or Skull of Cavadar token. (Click those links for details and restrictions.)
Below are all the 4th level character cards. 5th level cards can be viewed here and sub-class cards can be viewed here.

These are the special sub-class character cards. They can only be used once per year by a player who possesses (and equips) a completed Rod of Seven Parts or Skull of Cavadar token. Players with both of those tokens can play a sub-class character twice per year.
Note: Sub-classes cannot duplicate a standard class being run by another player. E.g., a party cannot have both a rogue and an assassin.

Player Token Mat
Every player begins their adventure within a Coaching Room, and they use one of the ten variants of these 14" x 17" token mats to help equip their character. It's a handy tool to help you plan out your character's token build. Click the link below to view a high-resolution version.

Some of our 2011 adventures took place in an underwater setting and used some special rules for players to cope with adventuring while submerged. We created this guide for players to learn the ins and outs of "gaming while wet". In case you were curious how that all went down, you may still read the 2011 Underwater Rules Guide.
