[QUOTE="Vlos, post: 2040938, member: 15447"] Well sorry for me role playing.... My character is a shaman/shapechanger and doesn't for the most part need /want coin/money. But what she does need is materials for her spirit tokens to offer to spirits, or materials to cast spells or make magic items, she prefers to make items, rather than buy them because they are connected to spirits, where as others are not for the most part. So the reason I am asking, is because I need to gather a giant pearl, or rare wood, or special herbs, etc. Since these have a value I can't just say, oh, I go get this or that and all of a sudden have 10,000gp worth of spell components or spirit tokens. The reason I used the spell casting and other means was to get a base of what a character could make if they put their magics to use to make money. Thus I could say, I put my magics to finding this spirit token and use a similar value to as if I was selling a ware or casting spells as to what I collected. Again, sorry for role playing my character, she just doesn't see the need/desire to take over an entire kingdom (though she probably could, but why when she could just slip into the kingdoms vaults and steal them blind). If anyone else could give some decent feedback for a system where an EPIC character could gather materials (or make money) in a day or week, if putting their magics towards the task (which would give me a base target to work with). Would greatly appreciate it. [/QUOTE]
