[QUOTE="Harmon, post: 3186324, member: 24357"] I think Thanee has a great point here, your GM is seriously lacking. My suggestion- Keep trying to make some coin, be inventive- offer to strengthen the city walls with Wall of Stone, Wall of Iron, or some other combination, offer your services on the cheap. Locate buyers and make them scrolls. If all this fails then collect what you can together and head out on the adventure the GM wants you go go through. Inform the Cleric (if your have one) that you will need a Create Food and Water daily and would like a Heroes Feast in the morning. Refuse to enter or stay in Inns or Taverns unless you have a little coin you want to blow on drinks. Should the GM ask why you are not entering Inns and Taverns, inform him that you have no stories worth telling that will get you drinks or food and your character would rather not be tempted to order and not be able to pay for drinks and food. I take it that you are rather short on scrolls (when a wizard is short on coin they seldom have scrolls left)? If this is the case then combat when you get where you are going will quickly get down to HtH so make sure you have a good staff to wack someone with. Oh, and lastly- no wizards arn't suppose to be rich, they are suppose to be able to support themselves though. Best of luck, and hope your GM can see the light sooner, rather then later. [/QUOTE]
