Aha, so I can keep potions I find during a quest? I think I read somewhere some items cannot be taken to the next quest...
Yes in the original game you weren't supposed to keep Potions between Quests, this is because they needed to be returned to the Treasure Deck before you can start another game - however the expansions for the American version of the game allowed Heroes to buy Potions from an Alchemist's Shop between games when they bought new Weapons and Armour.
Most groups use the house rule that you can keep Potions between games, but you must write down what Potions you have on your Character Sheet rather than keeping the Treasure Cards
If you use this house rule (which I recommend you do) it's handy to make a reference sheet of the rules for the different types of potions so players can look them up in-game if they don't have the card without you having to look though the Treasure Deck for the right card - the simplest way to do this would be to take all the Potion Cards out of your Treasure Deck and put them together on a photocopier or scanner and make a copy onto one page
