So what I'm doing is making a 12th level adventure where the PCs are looking for a legendary treasure. Of course there's also the issue of game balance. I don't want to toss anything in that will unbalance my game after they've retrieved the treasure. The question is what would 12th level characters consider a legendary treasure? PCs can manufacture or purchase magic items, so it seems rather pointless to have a single magic weapon, piece of armor, staff, wand, or other wondrous item be the focus. Does it even need a major piece of equipment in there? Maybe it should just be piles and piles of gold.... but how much? By that level, most PCs have already accumulated a pretty sizable horde. I considered a weapon of legacy, but I'd like to keep this to the core rules. What would you put in that legendary treasure you're sending your 12th level PCs after?</blockquote>
