Wealth Feats
Wealth Feats
Byrden the Cunning has a lot of friends in town. With a few bribes, a handful of loans given without
expectation of repayment, and several donations to local churches, he’s made connections with all the
right people. When the city guard comes to arrest him for the murder of one of his enemies, the entire
matter turns out to be a case of mistaken identity. A few more coins here, a reminder of his past deeds
there, and the guard releases him. In this case, wealth can help an adventurer out of a tight spot. If you
make an investment in others, it can pay back a hundredfold. Wealth feats allow characters to gain
mechanical advantages based on the fortune they’ve acquired through their adventures. In certain
situations, a few coins in the right place can prove far more useful than a sharp sword. Wealth feats are
similar to other feats in that they give you special abilities unrelated to the talents of your class.
However, they also have several key differences. You don’t use a feat selection to gain a wealth feat—
you merely invest money in the feat. In addition, when you use a wealth feat, you usually must spend
additional money to gain its benefits.
