Magic Item Creation Rules.pdf

Magic items can be created by gathering components and performing rituals for a set amount of time. The cost of creation is denoted in denarius (d), a silver penny, with 1d equal to a gold piece in a gold-based economy. Magic items can be bought for twice their creation cost, with availability determined by settlement size and a d20 roll. Periodic auctions are held in cities and metropolises, where characters can bid on items. The value of magic items varies by settlement size, with villages having limited availability and metropolises having more.

Potions require a laboratory and take 1 day per 100d worth of components to prepare, with costs ranging from 200d for a Healing potion to 2,500d for a Dragon Control potion. Scrolls require quills, ink, and paper, and take 1 day per 100d worth of components to prepare, with costs ranging from 100d for a 1st-level spell to 1,000d for protection scrolls. Charms are rechargeable and require 200d of components per spell level, with costs ranging from 400d for a 2nd-level spell to 1,200d for a 6th-level spell. Runes can be temporary or permanent and require fine carving tools, with costs ranging from 500d for a temporary rune to 5,000d for a permanent enchanter's circle.

Magic items, including weapons and armor, can be created with various enchantments, such as +1 damage, extra attack, or special abilities like flaming or dancing. The cost of these enchantments varies, with +1 damage costing 5d to 500d, and special abilities costing 500d to 8,000d.
