This is a compilation of wages and prices that I have taken from various D&D books ranging from 1e to 4e. Where economies have clashed, I used the version that I felt most suited the 4e economy. It's primarily aimed at detail-oriented games where a player might wonder if his PC can buy a house in town, or how much extra coin he picked up while working undercover as a valet for the Count. It is incomplete, as I have yet to add construction and maintenance of castles, keeps, and realms, as well as furniture, groceries, and sundries (little things that make life easier, like combs, napkins, silverware, etc.). In the case of the Spy (under "Mercenaries") I took the price range and adapted it to 4e. As I compile it, I will add it. Meanwhile, I hope you'll get some use out of it!

Construction
[sblock]Costs are for civilian homes and normal buildings only. Castle and Keep construction is elsewhere and requires a lot more security features and reinforcement.

*A common cook is not a skilled position. As long as you’re not burning things, you can usually find work at an inn or tavern. 1sp a week is a very modest wage, but the fringe benefit is that you can usually eat on the job, thus negating any need to buy food for the most part. You can also take home scraps to equal a modest meal.

**This trade is very market-driven. The wages may seem high, but they aren’t steady. Some weeks there may simply be no work to be had, so make those gps last!

*** The reason for the wage difference between the Maid and the Valet/Lackey is because a Maid is required to know general cleaning common to all houses and the odd quirks of her employer. A Valet/Lackey is expected to know every personal preference about his employer including, but not limited to, food temperatures, how he likes his clothes laid out, how they should be pressed, acts as personal secretary, and frequently travels with the employer.

Professionals
[sblock]These people are above the common laborers with similar names. These are the master craftsman of the trade. They are the people whose names are known far and wide for their skill with their craft. Any grunt can blow up a building with a cannon, but a master Artillerist can hit the building in just the right location to destroy it without harming the neighboring buildings… such as the vault. Likewise, any armorer worth his salt can repair or make a suit of armor, but to custom fit a suit of armor emblazoned with your personal crest and designed to perfectly fit every contour of your body requires a master armorer. None of these are open to PCs because the level of skill reflects a lifetime of perfecting the craft to the exclusion of almost all else. Prices listed are the rate of keeping these people on retainer.

Sages are a special case. They will have Three fields of study: Expertise, Major, and Minor. Costs reflect the sage's readily handy materials. A specific field of expertise for a sage means that he already has the research, materials, etc. The further afield the subject, the more he has to research, investigate, gather information, etc. If a subject is too far out of his field, he will still be owed each day's pay.

Information will be classified as General, Specific, and Exacting. Examples of such information requests are:
General: Do giants live on that island?
Specific: Do Fire Giants live in the volcanic region of that island?
Exacting: Do the Fire Giants that live on that island possess the artifact we’re looking for?

Services and Lodging
[sblock]LOANS
It will be up to the DM to determine what rates a PC might get on a loan. The 1eDMG doesn’t specify what is meant by “low level” PCs, but one might assume that Level 1 PCs who have just saved a town or a moneylender from certain doom would get decent rates.

Unknown & Low Level PCs…10%-20% interest per month
Well-known & Propertied PCs…approximately 1% per week


Rent an Apartment In the City…20gp per month
Separate, Private Latrine………+2gp per month
Note: What we think of as an apartment and the classical definition of an “apartment” are two separate things. Apartments back then amounted to townhomes or condominiums, and although not as nice and ritzy as a detached home, were certainly a far cry from the next offering:
Rent A Flat In the City…6sp per month
Note: Private latrines are not available at this level. Use a chamber pot! People in this section of town generally don’t walk close to walls, as things like bathwater and chamber pot contents were generally just flung out of the window. Also, the gutter ran down the middle of the street, and all of that loveliness ran down it until it dumped into the sewers. It was an unforgettable smell. Charming little neighborhoods, really…

INN LODGING
Good…2gp/day (A bed! A large fireplace! A writing desk! A lock on the door!)
Common…5sp/day or 3gp/wk (A bed! A small fireplace! A table of some sort! A latch for the door!)

Common…3sp/day (Tough meat, potatoes, coarse bread, ale)

*Tack for horses is found in the General Goods section

** “Many pigeons fly wild, but not all. Raising and training homing pigeons is a popular hobby around the world. Pigeons have a remarkable ability to learn a routine, pattern or habit. They can watch a door long enough to know its timing for opening and closing, letting themselves into a building to roost. They can also imprint their "home" and find it whenever they are set free from another location. This homing ability has made them very useful at times. They've played key roles in wartime intelligence, relayed urgent information and provided hours of recreation for their owners.” (From www.asktheexterminator.com)

After a melee encounter, the weapon will have to be re-blacked. The source for this material (Arms and Equipment Guide) recommends a +5% bonus to Hide In Shadows (AD&D 2e). It’s up to the DM to decide whether or not to grant any bonus for this material. I give a +1 to Stealth.

Clothing
[sblock]In a class-conscious society, clothes truly do make the man. What you wear says much about who you are socially. Fancy embroidery or rare fabrics can mark you as a wealthy person (and a potential target for thieves) as can certain dyes and colors. The Sumptuary Laws, as well as protecting the local economy, also restricted who could wear what. Purple, for example, was once the sole property of royalty (which made sense because the dye was so rare only the royals could afford it!). Some furs were also restricted as to who could wear them, and a PC might be able to turn a tidy profit by selling certain furs if their DM uses such laws. Punishment for breaking these laws is as varied as the lands that impose them. As well as political enforcement of these laws, sometimes there was social pressure. Ruffs, for example, while adored by the aristocracy, were seen as too uppity for the lower classes, and a lower class person who wore one was seen to be thinking that they were better than their peers and would be ridiculed and ostracized. ‘Getting above your station’ was a serious matter!

A particularly persnickety DM might decide to use the clothing lists to detail something like the PCs trying to sneak into a castle and pose as one of the servants or even one of the party guests. Sure, you say you’re the Duke of Albondegas, but your band says you’re a burger flipper at Happy Elf. Having the right article of clothing can enhance a performance or a bluff:
GUARD1: You don’t look the Duke’s agent.
GUARD2: Shut up! Look at that gorget! If that doesn’t say ‘nobility’, I don’t know what does!
GUARD1: Oh, crap! Right this way, m’lord!

I hope that any DM who’d use this sort of thing might take costume into account when setting up the Skill Challenge or deciding success or failure. Unless you’ve cheated horrendously on your Bluff score (or roll something like 500 nat 20’s in a row) I don’t think a guy dressed in slop is going to get into the fancy dress party!

And now, enough chatting. Remember, ‘packaging is everything'!

Construction time is 1 game day for every 500 gp spent. This assumes that the land is cleared and prepared and all the necessary materials are on hand.

An 8 square mile area is the recommended space to be cleared of monsters (not normal wildlife) before construction can begin. Most construction crews will refuse to work in an area that is not safe.

Availability of nearby resources can affect construction costs. A nearby dwarven mining town might be willing to supply stone at lower costs, or an elven settlement might object to the cutting down of the trees they live amongst.

Costs include feeding and sheltering the laborers.

For every 100,000 gp of construction, 1 engineer must be hired at 750 gp/month.
