Addis' design is (loosely) inspired by Mel Medarda. She's a force to be reckoned with.

But seriously, what is back pay ? I have no clue

[–] ahdok@ttrpg.network 45 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"Back pay" is when an organization you work for realizes they should have been paying you more than they have been, and returns that lost pay to you.

Huh. Nice. Thank you

I can't tell if you're being serious but back pay is when you get a promotion or something like that and it applies retroactively to hours you have already worked. So you get backpay for all those hours. Sometimes it can be a few years with so you get like 5000 hours of an extra 1 dollar pay or whatever

Im not english native, so I was being serious

Probably some extra money for the work she has done.

[–] sammytheman666@ttrpg.network 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Huh. It would make sense. More money for the special Konsi fun fund then

[–] ahdok@ttrpg.network 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's not shown in the comic, but Konsi puts that pay into a charity fund in the temple that funds a soup kitchen in the Field Ward.

Of course XD I expected nothing short of it.

Althought as a smithing cleric with expensive spells to use, Im surprised she still got as much left.

We-ell... we've got about 100k stashed between the party from adventures... the pay of a priestess isn't going to be much in comparison.

We've been on a lot of adventures with large payouts, and Konsi's not had much time to smith stuff - and some of the stuff she's made has sold for insane amounts of cash.
