Which meant finding adventurous employment in the area. I use the optional rule for rare materials lowering the XP cost, so if they could fing the heart's blood of a pyrohydra the price would be reduced....The option that you didn't mention however is in my estimation the best - allow the party to craft it's own. I must admit to a bias here, nearly all the wizards that I have created for my own use (if I ever get to play again) are mage-smiths.The Auld Grump</blockquote>
