[center]Purchasing Enchanted Items[/center]
Much like with books, there needs to be a system available for purchasing enchanted items of some fashion. And as stated under books, silver is nearly useless to magi, so we have to resort to using currency that has value: Pawns of Vis. And we will continue to use the Quarter Pawn, or qp, as the standard measurement for currency.
The costs for purchasing enchanted items is as follows:
Lesser Enchanted Items: qp = Magnitude + Level
Charged Items: qp = (Magnitude + Level) * Charges
Note that Talismans and Invested Devices may not be purchased. Talismans are specific to a given magus/maga, while Invested Devices are too detailed and research-intensive for any magus/maga to just up and sell.
Unlike books, the vis used to purchase a Lesser Enchanted Item must be split evenly between the types of vis used to create the item (Vim plus whatever vis was used for the effect(s)).
Lesser Enchanted Items require the purchase to be entirely in Vim as that is what is used to open the item for enchantment. Furthermore, the total cost of a Charged Item may not be lower than 2 qp.
