Message: <blockquote data-quote="Rystil Arden" data-source="post: 2793611" data-attributes="member: 29014">Let's say Penurio the Exalted VoP Monk helps save a lord's land.  The lord says "I really want to do you a favour.  We're going to build a statue of you in your honour."  The monk replies "I thank you for your kindness, good sir, but I humbly request that you would use the money you would have spent on the statue and donate it to the local orphanages."Now let's say Penurio the Monk and his friends save the lord, who thanks them, and then later they encounter the BBEG, who is holding an evil artefact inside of a vast stronghold guarded by demons.  As the party ponders how they can possibly defeat the defenses, who should ride up but the lord from before and his army "We heard about your quest to save these lands from the Demon King.  You have saved us and ours from certain doom, and we would like to return the favour.  Let us distract the demon guards with an assault while you sneak into the stronghold."  This is great roleplaying material, and the monk would definitely allow the noble sacrifice.Yes.  He is questing for a good cause without taking anything for himself <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Strict RAW, this would be allowed.  Spirit of the rules, not allowed.  XP cost or GP cost, they are still using something of value for their own.Absolutely definitely not.  See the FAQ on players dismembering themself to remove magical tattoos <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" /></blockquote>
