[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 5593344, member: 57383"] Is that cost to make? I don't think they have a sale price, since they're the personal creation of a wizard, similar to a homunculus. 2 grand to create seems in the right ball park compared to a homunculus (which is 1050 gp). The ethereal shunt power is worth the extra. 100 gold for the parchment and inks? What about the "wu jen typically create four gohe ip'oh at a time" bit from the original MC6 version? Do we want to include that? For that matter, do we want to use the "pages from a book of evil lore" flavour from the original? Putting it together using the homunculus as a model... CONSTRUCTION A gohei p'oh is created from a sheet of the finest parchment or silk paper. Pages from a book of evil lore are written upon this sheet in rare inks. The materials cost 100 gp. Creating this sheet of paper requires a DC 13 Craft (calligraphy) or a DC 13 Craft (papermaking) check. After the page of evil lore is prepared, it is animated through an extended magical ceremony that requires a specially prepared library or workroom, similar to an alchemist's laboratory and costing 500 gp to establish. If the creator is personally constructing the creature's body, the building and ceremony can be performed together.
