[QUOTE="RedTonic, post: 5694086, member: 98994"] After thinking about it a couple days, I remembered that I actually had these as house rules in my campaign. Goes to show how often this actually comes up in my game, heh. I believe these are modified enough from the RPGA materials from whence I derived them to be share-able (but mods, please let me know if it's not okay). I found those materials pretty useful for helping me iron out the rough expected lifestyles of the various castes in my setting. Destitute: You have no living space, and must carry all your gear everywhere. You eat poor quality food, mainly scavenged from settlements and stolen from farms and gardens. You wear a peasant outfit, your only change of clothes. Poor: You sleep in poor accommodations, and eat poor quality food with almost no meat. You wear a peasant outfit, and have two sets of clothing. Common: You have common lodgings, and eat common quality food. You have normal clothing for your profession; nothing fancy. You probably have two or three sets of clothing, one of which is somewhat higher quality and kept for worship services and holy days. Well-Off: You have better than average lodgings and eat good quality food. You have normal clothing for your profession, of good make and quality. You have several sets of clothing, and may buy another outfit every month or so. You are restricted by sumptuary laws in what you can wear, but you can afford quality. Wealthy: You stay in good quality lodgings, and eat good quality food. You wear anything in value up to courtier’s outfits, and generally buy a new set of clothing every two weeks. Due to your social status, there are fewer sumptuary laws restricting your consumption and mode of dress. Noble Luxury: You have luxurious accommodations (twice the cost of good accommodations), and you eat excellent foods. You can throw a banquet for your friends every day, and frequently do. You wear clothing up to the value of noble’s outfit, and buy a new set of clothes every week. You are subject to less legal restriction in what you can own or wear, but you are more mindful of intricacies these laws and in what you can wear to reflect your social status. Lifestyle Monthly Cost Destitute 14 silver Poor 43 silver Common 12 gold Well-Off 75 gold Wealthy 250 gold Luxurious 500 gold [/QUOTE]
