Like Rumpelstiltskin, you can spin your threads into gold using the WikiGold system! For every 10 words you write on your characters' or a relevant wiki page, you earn 1 GP in store credit at Desert Dollar General, home of all your mundane and magical item needs.

On each Sunday during the campaign, Frida tabulates how much you've earned in Wiki and sends a roadrunner out with that week's credit. So get to typing!

Floral Dragon Marks

Each dragon recaptured/slain rewards the players in that session with a dragonmark of some kind and a special reward. Player rewards escalate as the dragons are progressively harder to recapture or defeat. Below are the rewards those playing in The Court of Bloom and Blade can look forward to. The specific rewards (cantrip, spell, or feat) are determined by the DM and based on the dragon encountered.

Levels 1-4: Bonus Cantrip

Levels 5-9: Bonus Cantrip & One-time Use Spell

Levels 10-14: New Spell & Special Ability

Levels 15-20: Bonus Feat
