c - What happens to the card after it is used.

This symbol means the item is spent after use, which is denoted by rotating the card to its side. Spent cards can be refreshed when a character performs
a long rest.

This symbol means the item is consumed after use, which is shown by flipping the card facedown. Consumed cards can only be refreshed during a scenario by specific abilities.

All items are refreshed between scenarios. No item can be permanently consumed.

If a card depicts neither of these symbols, there are no restrictions on the number of times it can be used during a scenario, other than what is written in the text of the card.

d - Sometimes an item is used multiple times before it is spent or consumed. This is depicted by use slots on the card and can be tracked using a character token.

f - The equip slot the item occupies (Head, Body, Legs, One Hand, Two Hands, Small Item).

g - Some equipped items add a number of (-1) cards to the equipping character’s attack modifier deck at the start of a scenario. If this is the case, the number of modifier cards is specified on the item. See equipping items for more details.

Make sure the -1 cards added to the deck have this symbol on them.

Players only add these to their decks when the item is equipped. If the item is unequipped or not used in the next battle, these attack modifier cards are removed.
