The Disrespectful Dragon
Shipboard Roles
Role Details Treasury Die: 1d4Because ship things are EXPENSIVE, and the treasury is in a constant state of change (with purchases and sellings) the ship has its own treasury. When desiring to make a ship purchase (for example, new weapons, extensive repairs, crewmen, etc.), the purchaser rolls the Treasury Die against a DC from 1 to 12 that represents the expense category of the item. If the Treasury Check is a success, then there is plenty of money in the treasury for the item. If it is a failure, then the purchase manages to make a dent in the treasury, reducing the treasury die by one step (see below). Either way, the item is successfully purchased.
