A spell requires 100gp of iron which it consumes when cast. Where would I get that and how much would it weigh?

Also, I owe some 'copy checks'.

A Wizard spell on a spell scroll can be copied just as Spells in spellbooks can be copied. When a spell is copied from a spell scroll, the copier must succeed on an Intelligence (Arcana) check with a DC equal to 10 + the spell’s level. If the check succeeds, the spell is successfully copied. Whether the check succeeds or fails, the spell scroll is destroyed

I have not cast any spells I've copied from scrolls yet, so no harm.

Ok, Iron. I guess it's a trade good. https://roll20.net/compendium/dnd5e/Tra ... ds#content

Send me the link to the spell if you can, I'm guessing it means:

1 sp = 1 lb. of iron

Waterdeep prices so 1 g/10 sp

Like half a ton of iron at Barovia prices. Are you summoning a golem or something?

You could buy it at the Stockyard, Gypsies, maybe Bildrath's?

Does it USE UP the iron , or is it like a wand , a thing you use over and over.

I question the feasibility of a wizard taking a ton and a half of iron with him when he starts a 3 day dungeon crawl.

The spell says:
Holy water or powdered silver and iron worth at least 100 gp, which the spell consumes

Now that I'm reading it, I see it can be:
Holy water
or
powdered silver and iron worth 100gp.

So the silver would be the 100gp. Last night I read it as:

Holy water or powdered silver
and
iron worth 100gp.


But I DO like the idea of summoning an iron golem.

Is this for a golem.spell? Because, again, that isn't practical for a random spell to require 100gp of iron.

Or, like, a piece of art like a.statue of a wizard that weighs three pounds but you purchased for 100gp? Then it's 100gp of.iron.

There are spells that require you to use a diamond worth at least 100gp, or a pearl worth at least xGP, etc.

I think for this spell, I need either holy water, or a powder that is made of silver and iron and is worth 100gp. Part of the cost could be labor/effort in turning two metals into a powder as well. It's shit you would buy at a magic shop, not a scrap yard.

Message board answers imply you can go to a smith and have them grind up the silver/iron mix as well. Again, there's labor in the cost as well. So I'm guessing I'd need to buy holy water or I can visit that dude the plates weapons in silver and get hooked up. But pretty much everyone says it's holy water or (silver and iron) powder.

And no. Not a golem spell.

The laptop I normally run D&D on is down due to an IT screw up when adding a new hd. Hopefully it will be ready in time tomorrow for the session. I did most of the heavy prep last week though - tomorrow will probably be largely reactive and seat of the pants type stuff.

Game on Friday. With all the skipped sessions we are massively behind, but I'll try to run Friday to keep things going.
