Project Update: Adventure Capitalism, a 1st-level Economancy Spell [Murka Preview]
To celebrate all the stretch goals we've been hitting lately, today I bring you Adventure Capitalism, a 1st level spell from the magic school of economancy. Don't just believe in your friends—invest in them!
Economancy is a school of magic unique to the world of Murka. The rising and falling of the magical market is beyond the understanding of the uninitiated, but to an economancer, it’s allegedly comprehensible. Economancers leverage the beauty of the buck, the effusive aspects of supply and demand, and the invisible strings which barely hold capitalism together, all to weave a system of magic so complex, many wizards—economancers included—argue whether or not it can be predicted with any accuracy, or whether it exists at all.
I am a big fan of the simplistic resource-driven nature of the spell, being a single invested re-roll resource that may or may not get spent. It also has some great roleplay potential, and would allow you to eek out an Aristocratic lifestyle with ease—something almost all economancers are wont to do, when they aren't out there adventuring.
With the school of economancy, we really wanted to play with a new kind of resource management, and create a school of magic that's all about exchanges. In addition to Adventure Capitalism, you'll find plenty of fun spells like Conjure Cash Cow and Shrinkflation.
And, of course, it wouldn't be a new school of magic if there weren't a wizard subclass specific to the school. But if you want that, you'll have to grab the books. Or I might come back and post the subclass just because I'm really excited about it, lmao. WHO KNOWS.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy Adventure Capitalism and the Magic School of Economancy.
