@TheEdVerse I hope you are well. In "Spellstorm" several of the Archmages offer bids in many thousand thousand gold coins. Did they actually have that much cash in liquid assets, or was it a lie they hoped they would never have to be called on once they secured the spell. Regards

They actually had that much in liquid assets. Archmages learn that they need lots of cash to buy expensive spell components, and when they can demand and get lots of cash for casting crucial spells for rulers and guilds and merchant costers... #Realmslore

Where would the likes of Manshoon and Maraunth Torr keep their liquid assets? I can't imagine they have a single Scrooge McDuck vault they horde it all in.

Manshoon is partial to upstairs partition walls in gigantic bedchambers that wall off rows of (clothes, boots) closets. Every block in these partition walls is a hollow box full of sleeves of gold coins. Maraunth Torr does the same with hollow false support pillars. #Realmslore

Where does Elminster keep his? Asking for a friend 🙂

Ahem. Game designer, remember? My liquid assets reside in yonder penny jar. Yes, the nigh-empty one you can see through.
