All Custom Equipment Magical?

I have a lot of "custom" items ... mostly trinkets and mementos from my adventures. I have no problem creating them, but the character sheet insists on placing them under "Magic Items" and creating a Power Card for them. As they are nonmagical, I simply want them to be listed as Equipment. How do I do this? Or at the very least, how do I tell it not to print power cards for the custom items? I'm trying not to waste ink...

Thanks!

I was messing with this a bit myself and there are a couple of ways. Probably the best way is to just add a regular item from the equipment list and then where it places it in your inventroy right-click on it and select "Customize". Then just rename it and set the weight to whatever it should be. It doesn't look like you can change the cost of the item, as far as I can tell, so maybe pick something of a similar value if you need to.

I couldn't see a way to get Magic Item cards not to show up or to delete them directly from the viewer, but they do look like they go to the end, so if it overruns you could just not print those last pages that have just Magic Item cards on it.

Hope that helps.

I create a custom Gear item and it shows up as magical and prints a card. This is what I want.

I create a custom Ritual item. Now none of my custom items show up as magical and I can't get them to print out unless I select "Show all Normal items." Talk about wasting ink. Even characters who don't have the ritual have their items show up as non-magical.

So, try adding a custom ritual. Maybe you'll luck out and the bug will hit you too.
