Temple to Old Man River

Project: Temple of Old Man River.

Cha + Presence. Difficulty 1. Goal 10. Gets a Temple to Old Man River operating in the city. Enhances Alodian River Trade. Gives Soba a tertiary revenue stream not reliant upon the main trade routes.

Note. As Ben will advise The Merciful Lady and Old Man River do not get on. Courting his favour will piss her off and her temple needs to find a scapegoat to blame the upcoming drought on.

1pxp. Catfish spawning. These creatures proliferate even in drought times. Grants the city an additional food source to resist the bad times.

1pxp. Wheres theres muck theres brass. The temple brings the Longshoremans Guild under the White Roses control. These scavengers are able to glean treasures from the muck of the rivers bed. Occaisonally they find something useful. White Rose gains Contacts ( Scum of Soba ) 1.

+1 pxp. What Glitters. As above plus the longshoremen make a big strike. A Hoard of horribly corroded silver and a few gem stones. Once smelted this will offset the recent deficit in the cities treasury.
