beccaelizabethI am looking at the prices in the Stronghold Builder's Guide again
and I don't know what they were thinking
but it's hilarious to try and imagine
just how much Basic Bedroom Suite I could afford
for 800gp.
I think 1gp may have made it to £1,000gbp the other day, with the gold price gone so up.
I am trying to imagine how to spend £800,000 in a bedroom.
That room comes with spectacular amenities, and probably specialist staff...
Actually useful: all these bedrooms and bedroom suites specify the existence of a privy even if they don't draw one on any map anywhere. Seriously, there isn't a symbol for it that I could see. What is it with game map makers pretending the loo doesn't exist.
But it means other DnD products that specify 'bedroom' can be read to also mean 'and privy' because this book defines it so.
... I am once again trying to translate DnD suggested Throne card keeps into Pathfinder useful maps and costs and definitions. Pathfinder lets you buy toilets, so if they're not listed they don't exist, but DnD is giving bundled definitions.
Pathfinder also has the possibility of running water plumbing through the whole town (if you install some Decanters of Endless Water) and has magic item baths (clean water you can specify the temperature of) and toilets (also self cleaning).
Both settings have routine adventures set in sewers *but map nothing that connects to a sewer*.
It's ridiculous.
Pathfinder at least has sewer connection as a buyable option. It just doesn't draw it.
And yet I find forum jokes about The Obligatory Dungeon Toilet
as if that is commonly drawn at all
and like
yes?
if you are mapping every five foot square
one at least will explain the waste disposal situation
or lack thereof.
But these are maps that commonly imply a bed is a minimum of five feet wide and ten feet long.
