In this campaign I gave the PC's a method of running their own town. This lets them not have to focus on dumping skill points in their characters on crafting skills. This system is still being worked on.

== Resource Gathering and Building Times ==
 +
The people living in this town will help the PC's out any way they can. One way they can help is by gathering wood and stone. The DM decides how many people live in the town and how many are willing to help the PC's accomplish their goals. The PC's then tell the DM how many villagers will being what tasks. The more villagers doing the same task the faster that task is completed. These numbers were calculated with a town population of 30 to 50 healthy workers.

* In one weeks time a single villager can find, cut, transport and prepare one unit of Lumber.
 +
* In one weeks time a single villager can travel to the quarry, gather resources, transport and cut one unit of Stone.
 +
 +
Remember that these units represent all the prep work needed to mold and shape said material into its desired shape. Obviously building a Church made of stone would require larger and more stones that what is listed in the materials cost. This system is very simplified and not intended for the DM to make over complicated.
 +
 +
Building a building requires a upfront payment of the gold cost and material cost. It is not intended for the DM to allow buildings to be started and finished at different times. Calculating the time it takes to build a building is represented in the gold cost.
 +
 +
* The gold cost of a building represents how many days it would take a single worker to complete. So if a building has a cost of 250 gold, it would take a single worker 250 days to complete. If 10 workers worked on the same building, it would be completed in 25 days. 25 workers - 10 days.

* '''Prison Cell''' - This cell includes iron shackles on the walls and hay mattresses strewn about. You can shackle up to six Medium-size prisoners in a communal cell. Alternatively, you can replace the communal cell with independent jail cells. In this arrangement, each prison cell component includes two to four small cells each capable of holding one or two Medium-size creatures. If you need a greater capacity, purchase this component multiple times. You can get by with a single guard per two adjoining prison cell components. The standard prison cell comes with six sets of manacles capable of binding a Medium-size creature. For an additional 210 gp, you can replace these with masterwork manacles. To slip free of manacles, a character must make an Escape Artist check (DC 30 or DC 35 for masterwork manacles). To break free requires a Strength check (DC 26 or DC 28 for masterwork manacles). Manacles have a hardness of 10 and 10 hit points. A Small creature takes up half the space in a prison cell as a Medium-size creature. Manacles for Small creatures cost the same as for Medium-size creatures. Tiny and smaller creatures take up one-fourth the space, and their manacles cost 10 times normal. A Large creature takes up twice the space of a Medium-size creature, and a Huge creature four times the space. Manacles for Large creatures cost ten times the normal amount, and 100 times the normal amount for Huge creatures. Generally, you can’t keep Gargantuan or larger creatures in a simple prison cell, though by buying enough components you could get a large enough space. They require specially made manacles, which cost as much as 1,000 times the normal cost.

It has a marble-topped bar, upholstered chairs, and tables covered with the finest linens and the best place settings. Gorgeous decorations festoon the walls, including art from the best-known painters in the land. The tavern can seat up to 20 people. If you need a greater capacity, you can purchase the large dinning hall. It adds a third floor that is a copy of the second floor, increasing the room size to 12 large rooms. The fourth floor now include 3 master suites.  No expenses were spared in creating this floor. The walk-in closet features rows of shelves for boots and shoes, plus handmade hangers for the finest in clothing. The walk-in wardrobe allows two individuals to see to their privy needs in privacy and comfort. In the main room of the suite, there are two marble-topped bureaus to be filled with clothes. The four-poster bed is made of the finest wood hung with the wispiest of linens, and the mattress and the blankets are stuffed with feathers. The sheets are silk. A pair of stuffed chairs sits in one corner. In another, a finely polished and fully stocked writing desk waits to be used. The walls are adorned with fine art, often of people in positions of repose. Sometimes they feature dreamy scenes filled with pleasant nymphs or other fantastic or heavenly scenes.

Most of these buildings do not have much of a effect player wise, these mostly effect what kind of story the DM can tell to the players. For example, a town with no tavern will be less busy than a town with a tavern. A town with no guards is going to attract alot of thieves. These basic buildings are more of a DM tool than a player tool, however, without them the players will not have access to the upgrades that go with them.

In this campaign I gave the PC's a method of running their own town. This lets them not have to focus on dumping skill points in their characters on crafting skills. This system is still being worked on.

Resource Gathering and Building Times[edit]

The people living in this town will help the PC's out any way they can. One way they can help is by gathering wood and stone. The DM decides how many people live in the town and how many are willing to help the PC's accomplish their goals. The PC's then tell the DM how many villagers will being what tasks. The more villagers doing the same task the faster that task is completed. These numbers were calculated with a town population of 30 to 50 healthy workers.

  • In one weeks time a single villager can find, cut, transport and prepare one unit of Lumber.
  • In one weeks time a single villager can travel to the quarry, gather resources, transport and cut one unit of Stone.

Remember that these units represent all the prep work needed to mold and shape said material into its desired shape. Obviously building a Church made of stone would require larger and more stones that what is listed in the materials cost. This system is very simplified and not intended for the DM to make over complicated.

Building a building requires a upfront payment of the gold cost and material cost. It is not intended for the DM to allow buildings to be started and finished at different times. Calculating the time it takes to build a building is represented in the gold cost.

  • The gold cost of a building represents how many days it would take a single worker to complete. So if a building has a cost of 250 gold, it would take a single worker 250 days to complete. If 10 workers worked on the same building, it would be completed in 25 days. 25 workers - 10 days.

Building Cost and Requirements[edit]

The Labor Gold cost is the price you use to find build time. The Total Gold cost is the amount to you pay to complete the building, this means it includes the furnishing.

Building Descriptions and What They Do[edit]

Stand alone Buildings[edit]

Travelers will most likely travel the paths to the town square looking for things to do. A poor town layout will result in the PC's missing out on traveler encounters. Purchase this building more times if you wish to have more squares. This building can not have a PC owner.
  • Dock - A dock allows ships to load and unload passengers and cargo from the town. This basic dock can support two rafts, keelboats, rowboats, or longships. You can buy more docks to support more ships. It is common for docks to have a Gate House or Guard House near them, as well as Shops, Inns, and Workplaces. Make sure to have roads lead from the docks to the town square aswell. This building can not have a PC owner.

Building Effects[edit]

  • Temporary Effect - These stat boosts only apply to the PC while they are in the town and using the building.
  • Permanent Effect - These stat boosts apply to the PC or town at all times, as long as the building remains in town.
  • Special Effect - These stat bonuses are permanent for the PC as well. To gain them read the building description listed above.

Stand alone Buildings[edit]

Most of these buildings do not have much of a effect player wise, these mostly effect what kind of story the DM can tell to the players. For example, a town with no tavern will be less busy than a town with a tavern. A town with no guards is going to attract alot of thieves. These basic buildings are more of a DM tool than a player tool, however, without them the players will not have access to the upgrades that go with them.
