rain off your precious cargo in transit. |

A hinged chalkboard mounted to the exterior of the wagon,
useful for planning, chores assignment, and leaving cryptic messages. |
Chicken Coop |

Chickens lay an egg every day in the spring and summer, and make
for excellent soup or alarms in the colder months. Each coop can house two
birds. |
Exterior Rack |
+1 |
Extra storage is always in high demand. A wagon can have
exterior storage installed up to its Size. |
Floats |
Size of Wagon |
Cork-filled barrels mounted carefully around the exterior of the
wagon keep the vessel from sinking in rivers or ponds. |

A chest beneath the seat of the wagon offers a handy
place to keep an emergency blunderbuss. This can only be taken once per wagon. |

Includes a wash basin, slate countertop, small iron stove, a pot,
and a set of knives. |
Lantern Sconces |

Exterior mounted sconces on the sides of the wagon ensure
that no grue nor bandit can approach unannounced. |

Integrated shelving can hold up to 50 tomes, manuals, scrolls or
other pieces of literature, protecting them from the elements. |

A messenger pigeon can be the difference between life and
death in the wilderness. This can house three such pigeons. |

Serves as entertainment, a distraction, or attractor. |
Prisoner Cage |
5 |
Wrought-iron bars and a heavy-duty lock keep up to three bounty
targets safely contained until delivered to the appropriate authorities. |
Rainwater Collector |

Drinkable water can be hard to find in the wilds, let alone
enough to slake the thirst of adventurers and their animal companions. A day
of rain will fill the barrel, substituting a meal in dire straits. |
Religious Altar |
1 |
Whether you worship the sun, the Weaver, or your ancestors, you find solace in this idol. |
Secret Compartment |
Size of Compartment |
Taxes really are the worst. Sneak fine liquors and other things
into and out of cities with a false-bottomed wagon. The ruse will be revealed
only under prolonged scrutiny. |
Shop Stall |

A series of fold-out benchtops and shutters. Fully walls
the wagon off, adds a shingled roof, exterior locking door, and includes a
chalkboard. |
Silver Inlay |
0 |
Anti-magic engravings integrated into the frame of the wagon
keeps your mobile home from being suddenly dissolved, splintered, or
otherwise magically altered. |
Snow Runners |
4 |
When winter hits and the snow begins to pile high, wheels become ineffective. Swap them out for runners to avoid delays in travel and
keep your wagon above the snowline. |
Spare Wheel |
1 |
Sometimes wheels break, it’s always good to have a few spares. |
Spring Assist |
6 |
Should a wagon become swamped or otherwise stuck, it can
be a deadly endeavor trying to free it. Passively wound using the latest
technology, these spring-loaded arms can be discharged to correct your vehicle
in a pinch. Recharges after traveling 50 miles. |
Stilts |
4 |
Heavy winds, and flash-flooding are excellent examples of
scenarios where one might wish their wagon was bolted to the ground. These
stilts can be deployed in only one minute and prevent a wagon from being forcibly
moved in winds and waters up to a hurricane in strength. |
Waterproofing |
0 |
A thick coating of tar and proprietary alchemicals seals
all the holes in a wooden vessel, enabling it to serve as an emergency raft
or lean-to. |
Winch |
2 |
Thick rope wrapped around a spindle with a hook on one end and a
crank on the other allows creative folks to surmount any obstacle they may
come across. |
