[QUOTE="BMaC, post: 7811490, member: 6802386"] I am getting the book today but my fix for soil coins will be to have different denominations based on a person's deeds and alignment in life. The lowest denomination coins are evil murderers and the like, the higher ones good-aligned altruists who died saving people, for example. The party won't know specifics just that a "penny" soul coin is for an evil soul and a "dollar" is for a noble person. I will have to think of names if the book doesn't have denominations. The party can choose to run a hell machine thing on penny coins but it will take alot of them or they can use a high value coin for greater mileage. Even using penny coins should cause some ethical soul searching for the party. This at least is my initial thought. Maybe this is already in the book. Edit: just read soul coins in the book on DnD Beyond. Good stuff. Party will know about the soul in the coin. So there is no need for denominations. A PC can use limited telepathy to get an answer from the coin. Have to mull it over but denominations might still be useful. Edit 2:. Non-evil characters have limited carrying capacity of coins based on CON modifier. Over the limit=disadvantage on most everything. This is a lovely mechanic. Characters also sense emotions from the coins so will have s sense of the soul's disposition in addition to the ability to ask it a question. [/QUOTE]
