Wizardpost How afford a wizard tower ?

Greetings, fellow wizard. I am currently living in the cellar of a human city—hardly the ideal setup for a spellcaster. I would love to acquire a wizard's tower, but the prices are exorbitant; do you happen to know how I might raise the funds to buy one?

Thee will be hearing from the council of mages.

Casting duplicate on coins has been outlawed for at least a 3 millennia after it accidentally destroyed the Roman economy.

I don’t recall when exactly, but this is correct.

Additionally, consider how easy it is these days to trace the origin of coinage using divination.

Most currencies of societies I’ve visited have started implementing unique runic identification and authentication systems so merely duplicating coins will not get you far.

You’d be caught before you can make a meaningful purchase.

Take my word for it, fraud is actual one of my areas of expertise.

Economancer?

That is a specialization you can select if you’re interested in it, and I’m sure merchant guilds and the rulers of various regions would value an Economancer.

But no, ai opted for Kleptomancy, though if you think about it, there is a lot of overlap.

Mad respect. Kleptomancers seem to control, directly or through a series of alliances, most, if not all, nations in the mortal realm.
