Pawn

A common active trinket from the Chess set with 10 durability charges and the tk_Pawn ability. Pawn has more uses than the Rook and costs nothing to field as a common — its ability likely involves a short-range push or sacrifice mechanic fitting the chess piece. High durability makes it one of the more reusable active trinkets at common rarity.

Ten charges means Pawn can be activated freely in most encounters without running dry mid-run — a significant advantage for a common item. Pawn likely moves forward one square or has a single-step attack pattern consistent with the chess piece, making it a reliable opener or gap-closer. The common rarity means you'll see it early in a run, giving more time to integrate it into a strategy.

Pawn is the entry point of the Chess set — a reliable, common active trinket that rewards players who learn its mechanic early and use it consistently. If you find both Pawn and Rook, consider which charges are better spent on which fights: save Rook's limited charges for harder encounters, use Pawn freely on normal fights. Eventually replace Pawn with Queen if you find it, but don't feel rushed — Pawn's high charge count keeps it competitive as a filler active well into the run.
