I haven't seen one. All spell components with unlisted prices are assumed to have less than 1 gp value IIRC and thus come in a Spell Component Pouch. Really though, how much do you think that bat poop should cost?
Warlord_Draco 01-28-07, 11:55 PM	they're all considered to be less than 1gp each... for a guideline if u wanna make a list....
stugiiig 01-29-07, 12:04 AM	Bat poop, yes ... but what about a bit of clothing from a ghoul or things of that caliber? My gut says they would either be cheap but hard to find (ie only in major cities), fairly expensive (maybe 5sp apice), or just impossible to find for sale.
Warlord_Draco 01-29-07, 12:15 AM	unless your world happens to have an active mage guild..... I'd hope its a high magic campaign if you have to buy this junk.... essentially I'd assume any spell you can pay an npc mage to cast..... you could get him to sell you some reagents for..... for divine casters... church would probably provide them with the materials for cost.
stugiiig 01-29-07, 12:24 AM	I'd say it's a fairly low magic campaign: you can buy pretty much any scrolls/potions you want but no other magic items for sale. So far I've been able to find everything with ease but the components for Ghoul Touch have made me hesitant about learning it at all.
Warlord_Draco 01-29-07, 01:49 AM	in a campaign like that I'd just not play a caster...
risner 01-29-07, 07:26 AM	in a campaign like that I'd just not play a caster... /agree But if you (OP) wanted to track these items, make them easy to buy (if you want people to play casters at all) and cost 1 gp each.
