And that’s how you know you’re in the forkin’ Good Place
We need this
This is priceless!
It sounded like a scene from liar liar to me.
No it says right there, 20gp.
But it’s still very good price
Is it a good price though? The average wage for a commoner is 2 sp per day. The equivalent to 100 days wages for a unskilled worker.
Skilled workers earn about 2 gp per day. So this represents 10 days wages. A better bargain for sure.
Adventurers are always loaded with money, so as players our view is skewed.
10-100 days wages for seemingly a lifetime of prevented deadnaming and misgendering? That seems like a good deal to me.
For the lower end calculating it as minimum wage it’s the equivalent of $5,800.
Not a bad deal, but quite expensive still
I remember roughly a decade ago I worked out that a gold was equivalent in purchasing power to somewhere on the order of $100, and $100 was a nice round number that’s easy to use to get a ballpark feel for what something is worth, so I pretty much always use that. I’m guessing inflation and/or doomsday preppers (or political culture) has significantly raised the price of gold since then. Inflation too.
2 gp per day
I’m this economy?

Yeah, the adventurers really skew the economy. They just casually stroll up and loot hundreds of GP from an ancient crypt, awaken a long-forgotten lich, and then fuck off. It’s always up to the city guard to put down the inevitable undead army that the lich has raised. It truly is the definition of “capitalism for thee, socialism for me.”
Damn Mansa Musa
have we immediately forgotten what the wizard did? i’d consider a year’s wages a pretty fucking good deal for changing the fabric of reality to suit me
Take my upvote
Hell of a lot faster than going through the courthouse for a name change. Probably cheaper and more effective too.
I suspect you could do that in Mage: the Ascension (CAN YOU GUESS WHAT CAMPAIGN I AM PREPPING?!) I could see it as Prime 5/Mind 3 for super powerful blessing that makes people lose track of thought whenever they’re about to deadname you. A Mind 3/Life 2 would be less pwoerful version, you could probably add Correspondence to increase the radius of this passive effect. I do not think it may even cause too much Paradox either, it’s very Cointidental magic.
Wtf this sounds fun
This sounds like the rpg I have been waiting for
The shitty person ends up with Daphne written all over them like Jim Carrey in Liar Liar
Or Jim Carrey in 23
“The pen is BLUE!”
I’d go back to college to study apellomancy in a heartbeat.
“So why is it 20 GP if all you did was wave your hands around and chant some incantations? Anyone could have done that…”
“Here’s an itemized bill. 1 copper piece for waving my hands around. 1 copper piece for the incantation. 1 copper piece for the scroll… 97cp, 9sp, and 19gp for the education and experience to know which hand waving, incantations, and spell scrolls to use.”
Seriously, every single freelancer or contractor has gotten the “Well I could have done that, what the hell am I paying you for? That only took you like 10 minutes” response after their education and experience makes the job look easy.

not one hour ago a client emailed me annoyed that I made their 7 emails point to one web page and didn’t make a separate but identical web pages for each email, obviously me being lazy.
“THE PEN THAT I AM HOLDING IN MY HAND IS THE COLOR BLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL FEMALE!”
collapses
Gotta love a Liar Liar reference
Had to check that this wasn’t written by Joss Lake as this seems like a device/power from his novel Future Feeling
Do not trifle with Appellomancers.
