- Protection from Law is an actual spell. It gives bonuses to a character when they are fighting a lawful creature.
- Tumble is a skill that represents how well the character is at general acrobatic moves.
- "PC" is a common acronym for "player character," which is the opposite of an NPC.
- Copper pieces are generally the smallest form of currency in D&D (followed by silver pieces, electrum pieces, gold pieces and finally platinum pieces).
