Per B265, 1 meal costs 1% income for breakfast or lunch, 2% for dinner. Given that eating at the slightly less filling place needs four meals, I think it's reasonable to say 1 Meal = 1% CoL. Going off of the Typical Monthly Pay and other information from B517, I can calculate how many extra meals each TL & Status/Wealth combination can afford. To better compare the values from the first paragraph, incomes are increased by a third (to reflect the increased income over a 40 day month). From these figures, I can calculate the relation between G$ and L based on food price and income. As the value of $G and L are integers when basing on food, and the value calculated by income is fairly close, I assume that the difference between the two values is roughly corresponds to the probability of the TL/Status pair. Refer to the table below. Code:
TL Status Food Income Net M Earn M Net Bumundo Values 140.00 175.00 35.00 175.00 35.00 $G/LF $G/LW Difference 1 -2 140.00 173.33 33.33 173.33 33.33 1.00 0.99 0.01 2 -2 140.00 180.00 40.00 180.00 40.00 1.00 1.03 0.03 4 -1 420.00 533.33 113.33 177.78 37.78 3.00 3.05 0.05 3 -2 140.00 186.67 46.67 186.67 46.67 1.00 1.07 0.07 4 0 840.00 1066.67 226.67 177.78 37.78 6.00 6.10 0.10 4 1 1680.00 2133.33 453.33 177.78 37.78 12.00 12.19 0.19 4 -2 140.00 213.33 73.33 213.33 73.33 1.00 1.22 0.22 3 -1 420.00 466.67 46.67 155.56 15.56 3.00 2.67 0.33 2 -1 420.00 450.00 30.00 150.00 10.00 3.00 2.57 0.43 4 2 4200.00 5333.33 1133.33 177.78 37.78 30.00 30.48 0.48 1 -1 420.00 433.33 13.33 144.44 4.44 3.00 2.48 0.52 3 0 840.00 933.33 93.33 155.56 15.56 6.00 5.33 0.67 5 -2 140.00 293.33 153.33 293.33 153.33 1.00 1.68 0.68 2 0 840.00 900.00 60.00 150.00 10.00 6.00 5.14 0.86 1 0 840.00 866.67 26.67 144.44 4.44 6.00 4.95 1.05 5 -1 420.00 733.33 313.33 244.44 104.44 3.00 4.19 1.19 3 1 1680.00 1866.67 186.67 155.56 15.56 12.00 10.67 1.33 6 -2 140.00 426.67 286.67 426.67 286.67 1.00 2.44 1.44 2 1 1680.00 1800.00 120.00 150.00 10.00 12.00 10.29 1.71 4 3 16800.00 21333.33 4533.33 177.78 37.78 120.00 121.90 1.90 1 1 1680.00 1733.33 53.33 144.44 4.44 12.00 9.90 2.10 5 0 840.00 1466.67 626.67 244.44 104.44 6.00 8.38 2.38 6 -1 420.00 1066.67 646.67 355.56 215.56 3.00 6.10 3.10 3 2 4200.00 4666.67 466.67 155.56 15.56 30.00 26.67 3.33 2 2 4200.00 4500.00 300.00 150.00 10.00 30.00 25.71 4.29 5 1 1680.00 2933.33 1253.33 244.44 104.44 12.00 16.76 4.76 1 2 4200.00 4333.33 133.33 144.44 4.44 30.00 24.76 5.24 6 0 840.00 2133.33 1293.33 355.56 215.56 6.00 12.19 6.19 5 2 4200.00 7333.33 3133.33 244.44 104.44 30.00 41.90 11.90 6 1 1680.00 4266.67 2586.67 355.56 215.56 12.00 24.38 12.38 3 3 16800.00 18666.67 1866.67 155.56 15.56 120.00 106.67 13.33 2 3 16800.00 18000.00 1200.00 150.00 10.00 120.00 102.86 17.14 1 3 16800.00 17333.33 533.33 144.44 4.44 120.00 99.05 20.95 6 2 4200.00 10666.67 6466.67 355.56 215.56 30.00 60.95 30.95 5 3 16800.00 29333.33 12533.33 244.44 104.44 120.00 167.62 47.62 6 3 16800.00 42666.67 25866.67 355.56 215.56 120.00 243.81 123.81 Last edited by TGLS; 08-15-2022 at 11:19 AM. |

Re: (IC) Lost in Dreams (Julian)
Nice math.
1L = 4G$. The numbers are based on -1 status TL4. The economy of Bumundo is slightly off because everything has to be imported but digging up Vasic is a really solid source of cash. ******************** The token has characters on it Julian doesn't recognize, as well as some basic symbols. It looks like a seal of sorts. Of note is a wooden box attached to two cliffs that meet at the top, a "glowing" stone, and four spears in a bundle. And a striped frog. Julian has only barely gotten to sleep when he is woken up... by the tall skinny man. "What are you?" the man asks. He seems to be armed only with a long knife at his belt.

-> Cliffs - The Cliffs -> Box - The Market -> Glowing Stone - Vasic -> Spears - Spears? Maybe the bundle of four is for the guard? -> Frog - ??? I don't think I've seen anything up here that like that. I remember someone mentioned something about dropping a frog through the waterfall in a barrel. Maybe the Frog represents Tiskara? Quote:
Given every other time Julian's been woken suddenly, something terrible's happened, I think this might call for a Panic Attack roll: Quote:

Re: (IC) Lost in Dreams (Julian)
[QUOTE=TGLS;2448180]Figures about right with how flexible Vasic stone magic is. Wondering why someone would go all the way up to mine; untapped reserves?
[quote] Because the floor of riask itself is water-logged and mining there requires digging through massive layers of silt and either setting up pumps or mining underwater. The ceiling has Vasic close to the surface. Quote:
The man grabs Julian and starts pulling him towards the main tunnel.

"You will come with us. Where are you from?" The question seems less about getting to know Julian and more serious, as though its somehow critical to the man's life.

Re: (IC) Lost in Dreams (Julian)
The three of them from the tunnel or the thin man and two others?

I'm getting a sinking feeling that wasn't the best thing to say. I'm guessing the next question is, 'How did you get here?' "I don't know anything about that." If Julian gets an opportunity to ask a question (seems unlikely) "How did you know to look for me? Noticed when I followed you? Guard give me up?" |
