A lot of the fun with this world is of course, the shops. Whether your players are working towards buying a new item, a familiar or mount, money is very important. To help add the the involvement of this fantasy capitalism, your players may find "fortune crystals" inside chests. These solid gold crystals look exactly like any dice you might use when playing dnd, and function very easily. If a member finds a d4 fortune crystal, they roll a d4. If they get a 1, they gain 100G. If they get a 4, they gain 400G, and the crystal dissipates into flickering golden lights. Very simple.
Here are a few other rules :
- From d10 upwards, the player will always gain at least half of the maximum amount, so if someone rolls a fortune d12 and gets a 3, they still get 600G.
- However, if someone rolls a 1 on any fortune crystal from d10 upwards, this is a critical failure and they only gain 100G
- On the rare occasion the party finds a d20 fortune crystal, if they roll a natural 20 they will gain double the amount, a big ol 4k
