Message: <blockquote data-quote="Agback" data-source="post: 2670273" data-attributes="member: 5328">It's something I would have done. In fact something that I once did do.The game I was using didn't have levels, and for that matter equipment was not as important as it is in D&D either. But at the end of a bit of a quest and a significant story arc a party ended up killing a very nasty dragon and acquired 550 cubic metres (720 cubic yards) of treasure--gold, silver, gemstones, and objets de virtu. They obviously couldn't ever sort through it all, so they just stuffed it into the basement of their castle and broke out a tonne or two whenever they needed it. Took to ballasting their boats with gold bricks in case they ever needed ready cash.In a later adventure, they came up with a really clever plan to deal with a very powerful enemy if they could only get hold of a particularly legendary items. So they launched into a frenzy of research and managed to trace it into their own hoard. And there, they realised, they would never be able to find it, so they had to come up with another plan.Later on they got involved in a civil war, and strategic exigencies forced them to abandon their castle. The enemy army looted it and spontaneously dissolved, each soldier (and officer!) deserting with all the money he could carry. The PCs were not significantly the poorer for this even, once they won the war and recovered their castle.It was funny. But I don't think I would do it again.</blockquote>
