I was wondering what would be a good reward for a party for a completed adventure. XP is fine, but I mean in character. I dont want to say "here's 3 brass coins!". I couldn't find it in the books, but that doesnt mean i didnt skip it of course.

Any advice would be useful.

Going by the some of the published adventures 20s for a party for a minor reward and up to 20s per character for a major reward seem to be the norm.

I've found that with 3rde we seem to forget about cash very quickly, its almost slightly abstracted after a while. In my games I've found character motivation to be a much better motivator.. for example standnig with a noble faction, or recognition within the criminal underworld etc.

Give them some sort of business to run. That's always loads of fun and it presents many new roleplaying opportunities.

thank you. this was very helpful!

I would look at the monthly salary of a mercenary and use that as a guide.

Also, in my campaign, here is what I do:

Loot/Payment Award Levels
A GM can use these charts to help estimate reasonable loot/payment amounts per PC per session. This includes the house rule concept that PCs can blow 1 gold (Conan-Style!) for 1 xp rather than being overburdened with “stuff.”
• High Tangible rewards 50s / session
• Average Tangible rewards 25s / session
• Low tangible rewards 15s / session

Other rewards SHOULD include PRINT-OUTS of certificates of deeds, favors, letters of introduction and all that other stuff you see sticking to characcters in the artowrk of the Warhammer fantasy game. These should be part of the "coin"/loot-exchange reward.

FYI, here is the chart from my massive house rulebook that shows the crunch-bonus for fluff items:

Item Quality Price Upgrade Chart
(Price is added to the original value of the item).
Ordinary items: Constant: Superior is 10x the average price, Blue is 20x.
