Overview

This guide covers practical inventory management: creating containers, adding items, organizing gear, and working with your party.

Understanding Containers

Containers are storage locations for your items: backpacks, pouches, chests, and more.

Container Types

Type	Owner	Who Can Access
Personal	Your character	Only you
Party	The party	All members

Default Containers

Every new character starts with two containers:

Container	Purpose
Equipped	Worn, held, or readied items (armor, weapons, rings)
Backpack	General adventuring gear

Container Properties

Each container can have:

Property	Description
Name	”Backpack”, “Belt Pouch”, etc.
Weight limit	Maximum pounds/kg (optional, leave blank for no limit)
Slot limit	Maximum item stacks (optional, leave blank for no limit)
Bulk limit	Maximum bulk for PF2e parties (optional, leave blank for no limit)
Description	Notes about the container
Extradimensional	Contents do not count toward character encumbrance (PF2e/bulk mode only)

Extradimensional Containers

Some magic items (Bag of Holding, Portable Hole) have interior space that does not add to your encumbrance. In PF2e/bulk mode parties, you can mark a container as extradimensional and its contents will not count against your character’s bulk limits.

Adding Items

From the Item Picker

The Item Picker is a slide-out panel for discovering and adding items to any container.

Web:

1. Open the party inventory page
2. Click the + button on any container header
3. The Item Picker sheet slides out with four tabs:
   • Marketplace — Browse the full item catalog with search and filters
   • My Items — Items you have created or previously used
   • Collections — Your saved item collections
   • Party — Items already in your party’s inventory
4. Search for an item, then choose a quantity and confirm

Discord:

/add item:Longsword
/add item:Healing Potion quantity:5

Creating Custom Items

When you cannot find what you need in the marketplace, use Quick Create inside the Item Picker:

Web:

1. Open the Item Picker (click + on any container)
2. Click Quick Create Item at the bottom of the sheet
3. Fill in name, description, system, rarity, value, and weight
4. Click Create & Add to create the item and add it to the container, or Create Only to save it for later

For more detailed item creation, click Open full editor at the bottom of the Quick Create form.

Discord:

/add item:Flaming Sword of Doom

If no marketplace match is found, a custom item is created with default values.

Managing Items

Common Actions

Click any item to open the item detail panel, which provides these actions:

Action	Web	Discord
View inventory	Party page > Inventory tab	/inventory
Change quantity	Click item > +/- stepper buttons	/item name:Potion then update
Add notes	Click item > Notes field	N/A (web only)
Split stack	Click item > overflow menu > Split Stack	N/A (web only)
Remove item	Click item > overflow menu > Remove Item	/remove item:name quantity:all
Give to another character	Click item > Give to… button	/give item:name user:@Alice

Moving Items Between Containers

Drag and drop: On the web, drag any item from one container and drop it onto another. This works across personal containers, between characters, and to or from party containers.

Give Item dialog: Click an item to open its detail panel, then click Give to…. Select a recipient character and target container, choose a quantity (for stacks), and confirm the transfer.

Discord: Moving items between your own containers is not yet supported via Discord. Use the web interface for container organization.

Creating Containers

Web Interface

1. In the party inventory view, click Add Container (in the Party Containers section header)
2. Enter a name and optional description
3. Set optional weight and slot limits (leave blank for no limit)
4. For PF2e/bulk mode parties, additional bulk settings appear: bulk limit, bulk negation, and an extradimensional checkbox
5. Click Create

Setting Limits

Any limit can be left blank for no limit:

• Weight limit: Maximum total weight (blank = no limit)
• Slot limit: Maximum item stacks (blank = no limit)
• Bulk limit: Maximum bulk for PF2e games (blank = no limit)

Encumbrance Indicators

Each container and character shows a capacity bar:

Color	Capacity	Meaning
Cyan	0—75%	Plenty of room
Yellow/Amber	75—100%	Encumbered — getting full
Red	100%+	Overencumbered — at or over limit

Your character also shows total encumbrance across all containers. The default thresholds are 75% (encumbered) and 100% (overencumbered), but your GM can adjust these in party settings.

Party Home

The Party Home page is your hub for everything happening in the party. It shows:

• Collapsible party header with party art, description, game system, encumbrance mode, member count, and join code
• Party net worth — combined value of all characters’ inventories (hover for per-character breakdown)
• Unidentified items — mystery items awaiting identification, with quick links for the GM to manage reveals
• Shops — preview of active shops deployed to the party (up to 3), with links to browse and buy
• Loot — preview of recent loot drops (up to 3), with item counts and total value
• Recent activity — a sidebar feed of the latest inventory transactions (gives, purchases, spawns)

Party Collaboration

Giving Items

Give to any character via the Give dialog:

1. Click an item to open its detail panel
2. Click Give to…
3. Select the recipient character and target container
4. Choose a quantity (for stacks)
5. Confirm the transfer

Via drag and drop: Drag an item directly onto another character’s container on the inventory page.

Discord:

/give item:Healing Potion quantity:2 user:@Alice

Viewing Party Inventory

Web: Party page > Inventory tab. All party members can see everyone’s inventory. Your own characters appear at the top.

Discord:

/party inventory

GM Tools

GMs have access to additional tools on the party inventory page.

Spawn Panel

The GM Spawn Panel is a collapsible toolbar at the top of the inventory page. It has two modes:

Spawn Item: Enter an item name, optional weight, value, and quantity. Select any container in the party (personal or shared) as the target and click Spawn Item.

Spawn Currency: Select a currency type (gold, silver, copper, electrum, or platinum), enter an amount, choose a target container, and click Spawn Currency.

This is useful for distributing treasure during sessions without needing to search the marketplace.

CSV Export

GMs can export the entire party’s inventory as a CSV file. Click the export button at the top-right of the inventory page. The export includes character name, container name, item name, quantity, weight, value, and rarity for every item across all characters and party containers.

Tips for Organization

Recommended Container Setup

Container	Contents
Equipped	Armor, weapons, worn items
Backpack	General adventuring gear
Belt Pouch	Frequently used consumables
Quiver	Ammunition
Coin Purse	Currency (keeps gold handy for shops)

Best Practices

1. Create purpose-specific containers for easier mid-session access
2. Put currency in its own container for quick shop transactions
3. Use party containers for shared resources like rope, rations, torches
4. Review before sessions to organize when not under time pressure

Common Questions

Can I have unlimited containers? Yes! Create as many as you need.

What if I am overencumbered? Depends on party settings. Some parties enforce limits (cannot add more items), others just show warnings.

Can I use ScryMarket entirely from Discord? Yes for core inventory actions. Web offers additional features like drag-and-drop, the Item Picker, container management, and visual organization.

How do stacks work? A stack is a group of identical items. Each stack uses one slot regardless of quantity. Max stack size varies by item type.

What is an extradimensional container? A container whose contents do not count toward your character’s encumbrance. Available in PF2e/bulk mode parties for items like Bags of Holding.

Item Identification

ScryMarket includes a full identification system for mystery items with a 3-step spawn wizard, GM request management, and cinematic Scrying Reveal animations that play for the entire party in real time.
