I can't find if this has been answered elsewhere, but I was wondering if there's any thought about how much it would cost to engage in services with a local priest/ess of Calistria?
What I'm looking for are prices for: 1) partial sexual acts 2) full sexual acts 3) extreme sexual acts 4) use of "poisons" during such acts 5) wanting information 6) getting a priest/ess to find out information for you or otherwise "getting dirt" on someone.
It really depends on the local economy--Absalom's prices are going to be different than Sandpoint's. Look to the DMG for expert hireling prices and work from there.
Partial sexual acts? As in half a grapple? Or acts that aren't all sexual, like wash, cut and sex? (An essential task for every hairdresser's if you ask me)
I eyeballed a 1gp to 400$ conversion a while back. It helped me figure a few odd pricing things based on "modern" pricing.
For those who feel a 800$ dagger or 4000$ Battleaxe are over the top look at the prices for actual "weapon's grade" items like fighting+throwing heavy-knives (not hunting items which are great tools but not specifically weapons) and you'll see it's not that far off. As for Masterwork, I understand that the high-end katanas are traded in the multiple 100 000$ so it's still in the ball-park.
So, as for your questions I guess you could say non-magical/non-assassin "professional favours" would go from 2 sp (the establishment being reputable) to 25 gp, not that I really know anything about such things! ;P
Thanks for the replies.
I was basing this in Riddleport, in the Silken Veil. I was aware of the hireling prices, but I didn't know if that would fit since customers would be paying for a PC class with levels in cleric instead of some NPC class with levels in expert.

You must give me your hairdresser's name...
I usually consider 1 GP to be about 100 dlls or 1000 pesos (when it was at 10 pesos 1 dollar).
we should consider that a few of those items are more common than now... still yes... 7,500 dlls for a longbow sounds rigth for a relatively common item instead of 30,000 dlls for the same one.
Yeah, much the same. I consider 1 silver = 1 euro, and tyhe standard currency, with gold used for larger transactions, and platinum only accepted in certain places.

No, wait, that's my magical pony ;-)

Heavy Steel Shield: 20 gold pieces.Surviving for just one more round due to the increased AC over a light shield and then dropping the enemy because of the better damage compared to a club: Priceless.

Well, how did you?
Was it a high-pitched man-giggle? A proper mad scientist cackle? The verbal component of Ebby's Spiked Tentacles of Forced Intrusion? Something out of their worst nightmares?

Could your refrain from such exclamations in a thread like this? People could think you got a bit too much into the spirit of the thing...
