Counterfeit
The Kingdom is well-known for its counterfeit goods: forged documents and fake coins are almost more popular than real ones, bogus relics and works of art have entirely dedicated retail and wholesale markets, the capital of Alazia itself, Port Patacca, takes its name from the rip-offs served up to naive travelers, and any object or service that appears in the game can be counterfeit.

Counterfeit equipment has 3 key features:

• It always seems very convenient: In fact, a counterfeit item generally costs 50% less than the corresponding object, according to the official price lists. To any doubtful question of the buyers, the sellers often try to justify themselves by saying that it has been regularly stolen or it's "second-hand" (which is the same thing). But that's hardly ever true: it's simply counterfeit!
• It looks like common equipment: Counterfeit equipment does not cause any penalty to social reactions like shoddy equipment.
• It works like shoddy equipment: Apart from the aforementioned penalty to social reactions, counterfeit equipment shares the same issues and causes the same disadvantages as the shoddy version of the same items.

Counterfeit, Fake, and Bogus Items
As already mentioned, every single material thing in the Kingdom can be falsified, faked, and counterfeited. However, there are some special pieces of equipment and items, which are born fake, and are subject to further options. Remember, be careful: falsifying documents, relics, coins, and works of art is a straight-up misdeed that could considerably increase the Knaves' Bounty!

Counterfeit Papers
Any kind of falsified papers, from a pig’s transport document to an aristocratic event's official invitation. If examined carefully, it is possible to tell that counterfeit papers are actually forged documents. In order to do so, a character must succeed on a DC 20 Intelligence (Investigation) check (DC 15 in case of shoddy counterfeit papers).

Counterfeit Maps
Created by excellent forgers and artists, these maps can have many uses and support incredible deceptions. It is said that in the Kingdom, there are more bogus maps than authentic ones, and they pass from hand to hand, deceiving the most unwary.

Counterfeit Nobility Papers
Heraldry documents and similar stuff, with which a Knave can easily pretend to belong to the high aristocracy or a precise family. Nobility papers work exactly like the most common counterfeit papers, except that they cost a lot more, due to the several necessary precautions to be taken during the forgery: watermarked parchments and royal seals, just to name a few.

Counterfeit Valuable Objects
The Kingdom is home to virtuosos and artists of all kinds, among the best in Occasia, and many of these go around the Kingdom painting pictures and sculpting statues for the richest gentlemen, or those willing to spend ridiculous amounts for their works. There's a whole, colossal world of clandestine markets trading these counterfeit pieces of art.

Counterfeit Relics
After centuries of frauds and rip-offs, it would be impossible even for the most charismatic scoundrel to sell the fake half-gnawed-by-dogs body part of a saint, no matter how gullible the peasant or how pious the friar. In order to produce a self-respecting counterfeit relic today, a good forger would need at least gold and silver settings, some hard stone embedded in the framework, or a velvet and crystal reliquary. Once this is done, the sky is the only limit to the scam!
