Your character is forced into an office outfit and gets told to fix their setting's crashing economy

Okay guys, here's the plan...we're going to kick start the textile and leather industry by popularizing office lady clothes among the nobles and commoners.

We'll need some models, some promotional material, and some design templates.

Office outfits can be very stylish.

shishou please balance my budget

I am most likely the reason it's crashing. I've ruined one economy out of spite by making gold worthless, then silver, then cursing the fiat currency the kingdom started doling out to instantly catch fire when spent

You just wanted a thread about office ladies, didn't you? Not that I mind, they're hella sexy in that weird professional way. It's the right balance between formal/professional and hot without being slutty. Praise be to whoever invented the outfit.

War

he is a rogUe assassin he'll find a WAY.........

She's a police officer, so she's wearing a suit most the time anyway.
And she instantly passes the buck onto her boss who likely saddled her with this in the first place to deal with.

Use my VAST MAGICAL POWERS to set up an institution for individuals who are unemployed/homeless to enter indentured servitude to the goverment to work off debts and simultaneously get on the job training for service sector positions. Preferably anything to improve infrastructure, like roads, aqueducts, power. With a stronger foundation to work on, then the economy can work upwards.

Then get my suit tailored.

Gurk not able to read, but he think aggressive business plan smash economy back into shape.

Have another Scathach for your excellent taste.

>Character is a loyal member of the fantasy equivalent Western Roman Empire, years before it's fall due to corruption, lack of funds, and civil war.
OhShit..

Buy crypto during a dip
HODL until 10k min

My PC:
>Currency is discontinued for the time being
>Workers get paid a portion of the goods they fabricated from their work; farmers get food, etc.
>Civilians exchange earned goods with each other to acquire them
>Plans to redeclare currency as valid later on but has no idea when or how
>Civilization upends shortly after

My BBEG:
>Shuts the gate to the city, bars it shut from both sides
>Invites all wealthy merchants to a meeting
>"I do not believe you understand me. Something's worth is all about confidence. Confidence that it's worth something, confident that it works, confident that these things will be the same tomorrow."
>She slams a knife on the table
>"Buy this knife."
>After some bids, grabs a merchant next to her and puts a knife against their neck
>"Alright, second round of bidding; buy this knife."
>After her point is made and the merchant gives her a ginormous sum of inflated currency, she hands the merchant the knife and knights storm the room.
>"Now, the main event: Buy their swords."
>After draining the merchants of a huge sum of money and taxing the people, she throws all the cash into an underground vault and blocks the door, and issues a mandate that all prices return to what they were a year ago, or face punishment
>Until a week of stability is achieved, everyone is locked in the city, no one enters, no one leaves
>Economic crisis resolved through sheer manhandling

Should have asked to sell a pen.

It's druidic college for EVERYONE.
Let's goodberry our way into a sheer utopia where nobody goes hungry anymore.
Not the humans, not the wolves.
Especially not the wolves.

Just use Magic Initiate.

My character makes drugs, he just has to start his quest to become Big Pharma

Shit man I'm just a guard captain.

Begin investing in what's basically a medieval version of the War Economy from MGS via intense creation of homunculi. Sell a shitton of them and a shitton of swords to one side, inform the other side without saying it's you who sold to then, sell them a shitton of homunculi and a shitton of swords while they're scared, then once they have a modest fortune sell off the homunculi creation methods so both sides constantly work their economies at full-steam to fuel endless war.

It probably wouldn't work, who the fuck puts soldiers in charge of the economy?

>WH40k
>Inquisitor
He managed to get his conclave back on track in terms of dosh and resources. Doubt he could fix the clusterfuck that is entire Imperium. He'd rather fight some demons or xenos honestly.

Hold on, the DM is stupid enough to let me do whatever I want as long as I fix the economy?
I know what must be done user. The question is, will you oppose me?

Prolly tying to find some druid or priest who can take care so that the fields are growing again, there aren't many thing that can crash a bronze age economy besides no resources.

Wear the sexy office outfit, seduce someone more knowledgeable to fix the economy in my stead, hope they don't mind my PC's a trap, Make a note to buy more outfits like this

My "ex"Halloweener rigger that started a package delivery company to avoid breaking parole recently had his company One Star Deliveries merge with Azteknology. Which turned into a declaration of war and freezing their physical assets/logistics.
So, blood sorcery, sacrifice, and logistics wizardry?
He'd been playing the part of the loyal toady for about a year in game. Then stabbed the rep to death on Zurich after they agreed to the merger as part of the company instead of a subsidiary
So, time skipped two years into the future where our current game is Azteknology is almost non-existent and most of their infrastructure was incorporated into Guiding Star Enterprises.

I think Ray can figure something out.

He's a savant with 3D visualization and chemistry.

Abstract data, not so much. He'd crash the economy pretty hard.

>literally bureaucracy supernal

Point me to the stock exchanging supercomputers and then buckle your asses up.

First off, she would look hella cute in an office outfit.

Second off, this is actually something of a personal aspiration of her own.
>Gather up a large cabal of good aligned wizards and sorcerers
>Cast a mass "Raise Undead" ritual to create loads of skeletons out of the very ancient dead
>Have these skeletons become free labor for common folk, allowing them to create much bigger crops, craft more items to sell, etc.
>With economy boosted from the bottom, common folk will be able to purchase more, thus providing more for merchants and being able to afford their taxes to the royalty

HODL! HODL! FOR FUCK'S SAKE, HOOOOODL!

>You just wanted a thread about office ladies, didn't you?
It's becoming a daily occurrence on Veeky Forums.

>The BBEG is a deranged ancap OL who became exceedingly wealthy by investing in bitcoins

>Your character is forced into an office outfit
How is this relevant? People really need to learn to masturbate BEFORE posting.

>immediately and violently redistributes wealth but because she's a poor cartographer had literally no idea how to manage an economy but just seeks vengeance and redress om the hyper rich that exploit the poor
>everything goes tits up in a week in true revolutionary fashion
>new campaign setting!

Well my character has 3 personalities (for now) which tells you about how sane she is. So, how does she (main personality) fix the economy?

Enslave all the orcs. ALL the orcs... Maybe kill a few of them in the process.
Harvest all the gold from the gold trees... Gold grows on trees, right?
Use said gold to buy chocolate for everyone, with double chocolate for herself.
Praise Groetus and accept that everything is ultimately meaningless, as he will eventually descend to the boneyard and consume everything.

She the chaotic neutral one. If it's the chaotic evil one, he'll hasten the collapse of the economy and use the turmoil and despair to start cults with the ultimate goal of bringing his elder god into the material plane.

Then there's the neutral good personality, who is a celebrity bard, who would probably go on a tour across the land and donate the money to responsible financial institutions to try and get things on the right track.

>epic level warlock with 12 int

I'm pretty sure they just start polymorphing poor people into astral diamonds

>PC Is a Alchemist
Do I even need to mention why this is a bad idea?

Already did.
My master decided not to gave me another chance to do somehting similar once again.

She's already wearing a sexy office lady suit. Otherwise she proposes a massive stimulus bill focusing on technology and manufacturing. Probably with some strings where these government contracts require hiring a certain number of new workers. Also need to work out some international trade deals so we have someone to sell all this new junk to.

The fact that this plan will greatly benefit her company is merely a coincidence, I assure you.

>Villainous OL with very few moral scruples that manipulates politicians for her own benefit
For some reason my fetish.

Seeing as how her mother is in charge of the setting's largest international banking syndicate, I guess she goes home, apologizes for running away, and glumly allows her mother to teach her the family business.

She's the hero. Heroes can make money too.

Heroes don't steal from the taxpayer, user

By intentionally attempting to drive it into the ground. He can’t succeed at anything and is aware of it.

>Posting cropped porn

Somewhat relevant.

Badly for a while till people get used to not being allowed to run roughshod across the land harvesting natural resources as they wish. long lasting, well made items would be valued and overall the quickest part of the market would be exotic edible plants hybridized in fascinating ways.

He is a druid of the Underdark and is not very knowledgeable in the ways of economics.

I think that picture looks better cropped. That way, it looks like she's flaunting the keys of a storage room to her kouhai and telling him to meet her there in 10 minutes.

In the original she's just locking his dick up in a chastity belt. A lot less appropriate to my fetishes.

>Confiscate crops from the countryside
>Sell it. Use the profit to buy high-quality machinery
>Use the profit of the industry to invest in more machinery and to import food

Unless it can be solved by murderhoboing it my character fails.

Is it really stealing? It's just lobbying. And the people benefit! Can always just run for president too.

Like all problems, this one can be solved with violence.

I like how this was barely Veeky Forums related, and yet you all still replied (including myself)

I use my position to embezzle wealth and eventually ruin the setting economically, then flee to someplace safe and remote.

It's a pretty amusing question.

And most of us are perverts.

Fuck user I'm afraid I gotta ask for some sauce on the artist please.

30yr old single ols are my fetish

>Insane reality-bending librarian turned mage-knight
>Caught up in dozens of his own scemes plotting against literally everyone, frequently out of sheer paranioa
>Has the telepathic ability to use psycometry on anything he physically destroys

Probably something insane like tearing a hole into a parallel dimension and conspiring with his parallel self to periodically loan resources to each other at certain times to artificially influence people's buying habits via surpluses. It goes well until him and his alternate self simultaneously reveal their plans to subvert each other in a way that ends with a cataclysmic multidimensional war over some dumb resource like grapeseed oil.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

He doesn't.
He has no interest in fucking with the Ministry of Mammon.

Since he's a priest in good standing with his God, he will simply pray for wisdom and a sign and probably be granted some sort of divine inspiration which will show him the way.

god just think about how stinky her feet get

you just KNOW that this lady has to send office-wide e-mails apologizing in advance for how loud and stinky her farts are going to be

i love her

Aaand now you've ruined it.

>BBEG route
How do we do this IRL?

...that post invites humorous comments about a certain political climate that would lead to flame wars

Use his Stand, [Don't Stop The Music], to replicate the Stand [Money For Nothing].
Buy gold with the illusory money.
Set up fake gold mines and seed them with some bits of gold.
Deactivate [Don't Stop The Music], and [Money For Nothing] with it, destroying the illusory money.
When people come asking about their money, play dumb and say they've never even met and all the gold they have come from mines.
Sell the mines at a profit if the others are interested.

Or just replicate [Money Money Money] instead and generate real gold coins.

I roll Commerce.

What, were you expecting me to actually look into economics and shit? Get out of here with that shit: I don't want to study when we're supposed to be fucking *playing a game*

What system?

JoJo's Bizarre Tabletop, if i recall. It was homebrewed pretty heavily, since at least three quarters of the group had never watched or read any JJBA material. Myself included.

She would propose killing more turks and invade notKazan.

You are a man of fine taste. I cannot help but pay tribute to your refined senses.

Since my down time is doing all the paperwork for the guild because adventurers can't do it even though ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS PUT DOWN YOUR NAME, DESCRIPTION OF WORK PERFORMED AND WETHER OR NOT YOU RECIEVED GOLD OR PUT IT INTO THE GUILD VAULT. I STREAM LINED THIS SHIT SO IT'S EASY.
I digress.
I'd probably get 3 weeks into the paperwork before I pick up my bow and start seizing assets.

Not well. Also no one in the office is pleased by the addition of an obese female gnoll in a short skirt, stockings and blouse. She however does her meager best to get things on track by riding heard on whatever underlings she's now in charge of. Ultimately she just grabs her Guts tier huge sword, calls her monsterously huge velociraptor and goes to hunt down monsters or criminals to supliment the kindgdoms failing cash flow. The whole thing goes under inside of a year. The gnoll goes back to hunting monsters and cooking them for her 5 star restaurant.

Sitting in an airconditioned office isn't for everyone. Some people would rather be mucking about in filthy dungeons knee deep in monstrous viscera and murky water, death or maiming waiting around potentially every corner.

>price locking
Yeah, because it worked great for Nixon.

>obese gnoll in a short skirt, stockings, and blouse
I'd be pleased, user.

>Gnomish warhound rider.
>German inspired.
Outlaw banking, seize their ill gotten assets.
Outlaw foreign businesses from operation within the nation.
Limit how large a business can grow, something like 300 acres of land owned max or equivalent value in ships. Dose not punish the successful but prevents regional monopoly.
Open privately operated druid / ranger schools. Literally get people who can help things grow and just be nice why is this not a thing in settings.

>France is practically the only country in the EU that's agriculturally self-sufficient
>It exports its agriculture to (among others) its former African colonies in order to secure uranium so it can stay (sort of) self-sufficient for its energy production, leading conspiracy theorists to conclude its empire only formally dismantled
Did Charles de Gaulle reincarnate as a beaver? Because I'm entirely okay with that.

Is it possible to beat up the economy?

Well leveraged.

>literally a devil with a non-rhotic southern accent, a golden fiddle, and a penchant for solving his problems by outsourcing

He calls in a few favors, murders a few of the less logical Dukes of Hell, and installs some like-minded individuals in their place. He crashes all of the Abyssal stock exchanges by baiting Paladin squads into raiding them, has his newly-allied Dukes buy up the remains, and ends the Blood War via hostile corporate takeover. Demons are now second-class citizens in the lower planes, and are strongly encouraged to enlist in Daemon-killing squads. This should occupy most of them for roughly two metric eternities.

Something something war economy, something something Metal Gear. He fakes his own death, inherits his own estate, and lives the high life.

I have many beavers.

I start running it like a business

FPBP.
That being said just enact marine salvage laws in international waters but for dungeoning.
Dungeoneers get a certain percentage in the form of cold hard gold from whatever they salvage from the dungeon and maybe some for the site itself if it's worth it. Assuming it's contested waters or not somebodies land at all they can sell it to the highest bidder.
The government now had a form of taxation and control on a dangerous activity and the adventurers don't even need to find buyers they can just cash out and go.

>Ore X Yome

Still one of my guilty pleasures that I like to re-read every now and then.

she'd probably find out whichever god is the god of commerce and either depose them and set herself up as the new goddess of commerce or force them to fix their fuck up.

>god of commerce
I never understood that shit. I can understand worshipping an impressive natural phenomenon lke the sun or the ocean, or deifying certain forces like love and fear, but a deity dedicated to one guy trading a cow for another guy's six chickens? Why the fuck would you deify that?
