"Wealth & Gold" was the most-voted theme in our last poll and will be the theme for January's issue of Questline Monthly!

I want to give everyone a chance to be involved in the creative process of making an issue of Questline Monthly! Plus, I'm always looking for new inspiration & ideas!

This month I have a great story started, the Lore, Places of Interest, and Characters are all laid out! I also have some really unique Player Options in the works. However, I'm running a little short on Spells and Magic Items this month! 

Please, help me come up with ideas and concepts for New Spells and Magic Items for this month! Comment your ideas below =)

Wealth & Gold Theme Description

Hundreds of years ago, an ancient red dragon named Mammon claimed the city as his and created a lair beneath it. Mammon instilled fear in the residents and demanded that they pay a tax of gold or else he would lay ruin to the city, killing all the residents. Throughout the years, Mammon demanded more and more from the residents forcing them to find ways to make the city more successful or face his wrath.

Generations later, the city is known for its gambling and world-class entertainment. Every day hundreds of thousands of gold pieces exchange hands throughout the city. Mammon continues to collect a tax unbeknownst to all except the Cult of the Coin that keep Mammon and the city's origins a secret from others. Viewing Mammon as more of a deity than a threat, the cultists give offerings of gold to him in secrecy. So that they may continue to feed the dragon gold, keeping it from annihilating the city and saving those who are oblivious of the threat below them.

Midas Touch? 100gp cost for medium creature, halved for small, doubled for each size above medium. Restrain/petrify mechanic maybe? Turns creature to gold

Midas Touch would be a fantastic spell concept. Maybe if a creature is petrified and broken you can harvest the golden chunks? And like you said I can assign different gold values for different creature sizes!

"All that glitters"/"Gild"/"Polish" - Illusion or transmutation - 1 Action (R), duration 8 hours [V,S,M (a pinch of fools gold/a clump of mud/clay)] Makes a mundane object appear highly valuable/Transforms a ball of non magical mud or clay into a highly valuable object/sculpture. When the spell ends, the object crumbles into the non-magical substance used to create it and loses all value. ---------------------- Something like this could be fun for a devious party, or could lead to an interesting plot hook at an auction hall.

I like this concept! I had something similar planned, except it was an illusion changing copper coins to appear as gold coins! I may revise it to be like this instead!
