Or eat some football and watch some turkey . This is Derek we ' re talking about after all . <| sep |> Certainly in the case of haggling give no leeway , at all . A firm ' no , the rates are fixed ' in the first instance . The second time they try , hang up the phone . They are being rude don ' t tolerate it , at all . In terms of your location . if there isn ' t enough local business and you don ' t want to travel 50 miles each way at a time then you may have little option but to just relocate as would anybody if there wasn ' t suitable work locally for them . <| sep |> I recently made a necromancer PC who dreams of becoming a lich but I and inherently my character know it ' s a very tough ritual to learn and perform . You , yourself , need to have great grasp of the arcane to even begin to understand it . If you want to throw a rule down , you could say that the phylactery is , say , 500 , 000 gp to craft and the ritual requires a level 8 or 9 spell slot to be expended each day for a full year in meditation , or something like that . Meaning 1 . the palwiz will never even get there and 2 . it ' s going to be a level 1720 endeavour with a full year ingame to accomplish for the wizard . The idea of becoming a lich is a great bond or ideal for a character something to drive them . It really shouldn ' t be an expectation of a player that it actually happens , at least easily .
