The Failure Margin should indicate just how bad the henchman is, so the \gls{gm} is encouraged to make the roll in secret.
\subsection{Cultures \& Exchange Rates}
\index{Exchange Rates}
Different cultures have different exchange rates -- the elven versions of standard equipment are always artistically engraved and in high demand; the elves also value the coinage and materials of outsiders very little, so they will not part with their items for human or dwarvish gold easily.
As a result, their --- and other --- culture's items are more expensive than human items.

The costs of the items here are based on the most common race -- humans.
Other races have a multiplier effect based on how expensive their equipment is.
Different races will also have different items available.
In general, anything of a basic (non adjusted) value of over 2 \gls{sp} will not be available in a village, while towns will not have anything of over 10 \gls{sp} in value.
Characters can only buy expensive, artisan, items in cities.
Services suffer the same adjustments.
The party will not find gnomes willing to guide `a bunch of giants' as easily as the young humans in a village.
