One of my players is a lvl 4 cleric of Lathander, who works in a temple in the city of Laelith as an acolyte. He wants to sell his spells at the temple to gain 5gp/day (+the shelter/food/expense, so you add something 1-2gp/day).
He based his price on this post with a discount. At first I said no, because, based on the rulebook, 5gp/day is a rich lifestyle and for someone who works as an acolyte in a temple of a Good god, I find this a bit paradoxical.
He's arguing the spell are sold for a fraction of their value and it's for a good cause (he wants to send some of this money to his hometown).
I've done some research and am struggling to find good data on what a player could earn per day by selling spell in this context. I though of giving him something like 2gp/day (for his work at the temple, based on the "job" section) + a bonus when he's asked for a spell from the temple.
What your thoughts on the subject?
